If you love your VG POST A PIC HERE!
Ok, before they pick on you more. You have a VE, but they are awesome as well (If not more so). And that paint is amazing, other than one mike...somethings car, I have never seen grey hold up so well.
But check out the VE thread, it is around somewhere...

i love my VG because it can do this without VLSD somehow. i don't know how it did that, but it did.

That would be interesting. I'm not a big big fan of the VQ though....I just tend to regard aluminum as being weak (even if the cylinders are lined with cast iron. I know it's heavier but aluminum hasn't seemed like a good metal to me since I started working with it. A small piece of aluminum almost feels plastic. I made my girlfriend some rings out of aluminum using a lathe back in 07 and I had to bang them against each other to get any of the metallic "ding" that I can normally get from flicking an object that is metal. I don't like how steel rusts but thats what stainless is for and it feels good and solid.

Didn't know there was another thread. Serves me right for pitting pics of her underside on the Internet
Even though its from my old second gen I had here is my VG.
Dont hate on the strut bar. That was custom made by nismo87se and it worked.
Every time I see the pics of it I want it back.

Finally decided to post a picture and maybe become more of a part of this group. I am an extreme lurker.
I will post more later, mostly because this picture was taken on a cloudy day, my car looks best in the sun

frankie's fun park!
so are you getting Goon's intrax or are you still gonna do the Eibachs? you don't HAVE to but i'd suggest waiting until i get you those disc strut assemblies before installing the springs b/c then you're just gonna have to pull them off again and swap them over anyhow... why do double work?
and WTF happened to your corner lamp and fender? I don't remember seeing that on sunday

for me my car looks better when the sun starts to go down lol like 6ish 7. haha
You got me! had to take the kids 
since they couldnt go to the park that day.
Yep got the intrax, plus i figured if i didnt like them someone else might and then i'd go ahead and get the eibachs. my offer still stands as far as you go though. i have thought about your suggestion and as long as i dont buy tires for the 17s then that shouldnt be a problem, cause i walk by them every morning and they look so sad in the corner by themselves
some very cute dumb female dog was backing out of a parking space and hit me with her front bumper (i was backed in) it pushed in the front of the fender and the edge of the bumper and ripped out the corner lamp.
i figured i'd get it fixed when i get it painted, plus i've already had to spend the insurance money on the injectors.

The sun thing is because of the goofy pearl color. In some lighting it looks great and I wouldn't want any other color, and in some lighting it looks like the ugliest thing I have ever seen.
I don't think I ever posted this pic here before:
FUNNY that you should say that. This was my 2nd trip to charlotte (stopped in Mebane on the way there, at a McDonalds where we took the snow pic). The first time (2-3 weeks earlier) that we went to Charlotte I bought a spoiler, just hadn't installed it yet. The 2nd time i bought some disc-swap struts off a VE that I will now be selling to nc90gxe as soon as i get him another caliper and another tqmember (slidepin rusted solid into it... ftmfl)
if you don't know how to post pics..
