4x4Max Apr 28, 2005 07:27 PM

u guys make me really wanna get a manual tranny

Puppetmaster Apr 28, 2005 08:08 PM

Thanks guys... and yup, I love the 6-speed plus that HLSD... I wanna keep this car for as long as I can... just need to dump some MT-90 into that bish to get rid of the notchiness in the shifting...

GraveDigger611 Apr 28, 2005 09:29 PM

Lookin good

roll4life May 1, 2005 07:47 PM

this actually got me thinking...should i go with h-tech springs or progress..i really like the drop on you car..but im still thinking if the rear is really lower..it looks decieving..im afraid if i put a system in the trunk and people in the back seat..then the rear will deff be lower..but i like the progress set up a lot

If ya have a system, it may appear to sag in the back then... I have nothing in my trunk... literally, not even the cargo net (well, the spare is in there)... the H-Techs are a great looking drop and plus I heard they ride real nice too... all the best with your decision.

sunysb83 May 1, 2005 10:12 PM

your car looks really good and the drop looks nice :)

I love the car puppet! always been a fan of the maj blue! True, we do need more 5/5.5 gens in here... I'll probably post this weekend ;)

Puppetmaster May 5, 2005 07:12 PM

Thanks for the compliments SUNY and DABOX... sometimes I wish I had some nice rims though... but it would ruin my sleeper status and weigh me down... :)

godlyone May 6, 2005 07:12 PM

Awesome looking car.
Nice shifter lol, where did you get it from? And how much $?

Can't tell if you're kidding or not... but that is the stock shift knob that comes with the 6-speeds... :scratch:

GBAUER May 7, 2005 08:48 AM

Well, since you asked for more 5.5 gens, check out my sig fro MIR (I think you may have been there...). Anyway, I know you've seen my car, but others here may not have. Painted engine cover and grill (the DC crew rags on it because they're all jealous!). Adding the front lip and lowering springs this summer.

I wasn't there... but I've seen your sig a lot consider how much you post whore... haha...

Once you're all lowered and kitted out, start a thread as well... or just do it now and update it later....

Btw, the Injen needs to painted body color too... stands out too much there... :nervous:

My fault.. I havent seen any 6th gens yet.
Is it possible to install that shifter on a 5th gen?

2000-2001 = 5th Gen

2002-2003 = 5.5th Gen

2004-2005 = 6th Gen

Mine is a 2002 or 5.5 Gen... and no, ya couldn't put that shifter on a 5th Gen cuz they only came in 5-speeds, and mine is a 6-speed. I guess technically, if the shift knob fits, you could, but it doesn't go since 5-speed /= 6-speed.

Btw, check out the 5th Gen forums sometime, esp the Stickies at the top of the page... you'll learn a lot there... :)

Thanks Sean... as of now, I'm planning on being there... hopefully I'll have my car nicely washed and waxed by then...

cbremer May 11, 2005 09:25 PM

i can't start my own threads yet... mind if i post a pic of my new (to me) '01 in here? :D

Deckdout2 May 12, 2005 02:12 PM

Are you planning on tinting your windows?

BIGMAX19 May 12, 2005 02:35 PM

Here's my 5.5......

Metal Maxima May 12, 2005 03:45 PM

Me? Yeah... that black leather gets mighty hot in the summer time... think the tint should help some...

Puppetmaster May 12, 2005 09:36 PM

Btw, Man74 and Metal Maxima... those are some nice rides...:thumbsup: you should start your own threads, you'd probably get more comments rather than sharing this thread with my stock-looking Max... :)

2K3MAX2NV May 13, 2005 05:58 AM

Heres another 5.5

silvermax2k2 May 13, 2005 06:55 AM

Thanks man! :D

Yep, I still have the greddy.. but i am looking for a change. maybe this summer i will upgrade after my funds replenish a bit from my project i am working on right now. so many mods, so little time. :(

Yup, I sold my GReddy, now I have the Frankencar... I love it... the Cattman/Mossy is nice too, sounds more aggressive...

I like the way the franencar LOOKS, but you cant really hear it. If the franken car sounded the same (or deeper) then my greddy, I would buy it in a heartbeat. :)

I know... its taken me a while to get used to the Frankencar... I'm actually still contemplating getting a Cattman rear section instead... :)

SEmy2K2go May 14, 2005 08:36 PM

You don't want one of those, trust me :wall:

Here's yet another one of mine.

Raising this thread back from the dead....

Some people wanted to see pics of the PIAA Ion Crystal Yellow fogs with the OEM HIDs, so here they are.

http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...1/DSCN3836.jpg

Anyone have suggestions as to how to take good night pics with less glare (short of getting a new camera/filter)? I might try going to a lit parking lot to take some pics, people always seem to get nice pictures of their headlights there.

Nickel Jan 6, 2006 03:28 PM

wow nice car. how fast the 6 speed go up to?

Puppetmaster Jan 6, 2006 08:40 PM

More pics (better pics to come):
