there will be more progress, just not sure when still hunting down deals, like front anf rear lips

 

i just hate teh accents as i mentioned..but its good to see where it came from though. how about do this...paint the accents (grill, wiper blades w/e else you've done green, black) then just do your rims green

 

the wiper arms and grille are getting blacked out, but the rims and center stay as they are, also thinking about an I30 hood

 

you scared to do all green wheels?

 

It was suggested, this is what i did,

didnt turn out well, the rims arent perfect and show all the imperfections

 

thats actually kinda bad ***...but...i'd still do all green.

i like/love the concept, but on the car, it hink itd look like shiet...and are those 50 series tires? lol i know you must not feel a damn thing

 

245/45/18

and they rims might get redone eventually, fallenone did a great chop of the rims all green....
it may get changed eventually, green seem insanely hard to keep clean

 

get some ceramic pads, you'll be fine!

 

i have ceramics, still get dusty and dirty

 

if you dont live down dirt roads, your rims should not be getting THAT dirty....#IJS

what brand do you have?

 

EBC, and i do live off a dirt road...

 

oh...thats your problem, the dirt road. i dont know much about EBC. which ones are they? i wasnt aware they had a ceramic pad. anyway, i got my ceramic pads from advance, i think they are the bendix brand..SORTA expensive (i think $50) but i'm not harsh on brakes so that on top of ceramic pad long life = lifetime for me

 

well, as the flaming continued, i decided to do away with the green, also did eyelids pics...



EDIT, dont mind how dirty it is, havent has time to wash it

 

Looks pretty sick so far !! Come on give us more pics !

 

gettin there, trying to sell the mustang and the miata, and its not going well, as am i trying to sell the max parts i have, im so broke a cant afford to pay attention right now, so the max hasnt left the driveway in 4 almost 5 days

also, with that, a few of my buddies decided to name it, shes officially...... Project:187

 

Well keep up the progress on Max187/FrankenMax and we'll keep rootin for yah !

 

Why project: 187?

 

187 is the police radio code for homicide/murder...get it

 

IMHO I think a deeper, evil eyelid would look better. Dont get me wrong I still like this one. Original.

 

ok so minor update, a buddy of mine gave me a set of new headers tonight, just need a y-pipe i can afford on a budget, and they got on, and then its time for moar low, cant afford coilovers so im looking into S.Techs... anyway pic of the new headers for a tease..

 

Depending on which y pipe you get, youll more than likely need to turn the flanges on either the headers or y pipe. I vote headers to retain the resale of the ypipe.

 

you took the green away cause people on the internet made fun of you

 

not really the original plan was all black anyway, i just wanted to thro the green on to mess with people

 

 

Nice progress, what brand headers were they anyway and why didnt the guy give the y-pipe also....

 

wow your beginning pics look better than i car im looking to buy

 

Shoot he gave em for free. Thatd be good enough for me!

 

im pretty sure they are ebay headers, and he used the Y-pipe with his stock manis untill he finishes his turbo y pipe...but that might be a while i would like to have the headers a y pipe installed for the NE meet

 

You can always just have one fabbed up...

 

true dat, it might come down to that, but theres a new list forming daily...

MEVI
y pipe and headers
CF hood (gotta pick it up)
new front seats
spray(maybe)
PFTB
(future project) equal length long tube headers
97+ front bumper swap(maybe)
fogs
HIDs
projectors
front and rear lips
new skirts
tint
custom CAI
I30 rear view
5th gen auto shifter( never seen it done...ill figure it out)
(future mod) 3.5swap with 6MT and boost

 

Gonna be a mission to find a MEVI but theres no headaches with that swap. Luck with that.

 

haha yea, i have heard that, but ill find one...someday,

 

IIRC you can buy it new from some website....Im sure someone knows what Im talkin about...

 

i heard that too, ill have to look into it a little, but that and the headers/y pipe are the first on my list

 

Get in the classifieds bruh!

 

Looks great! Impressed and a bit jealous (I drive the same model, still all original...maybe someone else's next $20 project? ).

 

haha if you were closer i would buy it for 20... maybe 50, lmao but ya gotta get pics up, i AM looking for another one lol

 

Coming together

 

gettin there, i feel boost in my future...stay tuned

 

got a few new pics, nothing major to report right now, just some new pics...






and this is how i want here to tuck the FX35 18"s...
