Havent posted in a while... new pics

Hey... havent been on here in a while and just wanted to show everyone the latest. Nothing major or that hasn't been done before.

Mods I did over the summer:
fidanza lightend flywheel, spec 2 clutch, udp, ebay CAI, eibachs&kybs in the front, slotted crossdrilled rotors and ss brake lines, powder coated the calipers and the stillen kit. Oh...and a brand new transmission $1700 (long story)

Made it fun for about 2 weeks, but now im bored with it again.

any questions or comments are welcome
thanks

the car looks great. I really like the intake manifold and valve covers. I was going to paint mine (have good spray equipment but no powder coating) similar to that. Very nice.

I understand what you mean...you do so much to it and then when its done it is kind of boring. To me most of the fun is actually doing the stuff.

Car looks really nice. I am not a big fan of those wheels, but it's your car and that's cool. The powder coat really stands out on the engine components. Thumbs up there.

I hear ya on the transmission thing. These cars seem to eat them up pretty regularly. I am awaiting mine right now -- I gotta finish paying MrGone...

I don't get bored with mine because I don't drive it very often. Even when the car was 100 percent, it sat in the garage a lot. Going on a trip or going to track was an "event" and I looked forward to driving the Max.

Nice,

I've always wondered what those RS6's would look like on a white car, since I totalled my white car I never got to see. Take a look at my homepage, and see if you like what I did to the interior

I dont really remember how much the valve cover was... if i remember right... i think i paid around $150 for the intake manifold, valve cover and cold air intake piping. I got the tranny from a NISSAN dealer in Iowa... they screwed me on a previous deal, so they gave it to me at cost. I sold the green max to my cuz... and he wrecked it or lost it...? How you misplace a car i have no idea...but that was the story he gave me.
