Thanks 
I do have a vision / plan for the car in my head. Overall, by the end of it I hope that it has respectable performace, and the styling to match. I want it to look race-like, no chrome or really flashy stuff.
I'm trying to stick to the red and flat black theme

Picked up the ZZP A/C delete pulley today:
No more squeeling compressor clutch.
Now if I could only sell my ZZP 3.5 modular pulley... then I could get myself those LED front accents from TLG... they're on the wish list..[This message has been edited by doublec4 (edited 02-21-2010).]

Car looks great. Great build thread. I really need to start taking pics and put up a build thread myself before I forget everything myself.
I really like your diffuser and will more than likely steal the idea for mine. Very nice rims. I've also been looking at the Enkei OR52 and Drag DR-25 rims. I'll now be adding the Enkei RPF1 to my list and finally decide when I see them all in person.
I've also decided to go with 225/45 ZR17 Front and 255/40/ZR17 on the Rear. This would give speedo difference of +.5% which means 59.7 mph speedo = 60 mph actual. If I go with the 245/40 ZR17s the difference would be +1.6% or 59 mph speedo = 60 mph actual.

Thanks for the compliments
With that tire size in the rear you *may* need coil overs, depending on offset of the wheel. Might want to look into it just in case.

I love the way they look, but unfortunately I don't know how they feel yet with the new rubber. I'm back at school away from my car again until the end of April. Even for the pictures all I could do is mount one wheel.
The weather around here is getting a lot nicer again, we're averaging temps above 0! Spring is in the air and I'm itching to get back to my car and work on it!

Latest news is that I won a PFF award! I guess some people were nominating cars in the off topic section and I happened to win gold for the notchbacks!
First I'd like to thank God, and my family for all of their support.... alright alright I'll save you guys the speech. 
Thanks to those of you who voted though!
