Car looks great, as always. Good choice on the offset of the wheels!

exactly what I would do if I had a 4th gen. The only thing I don't like is the exhaust (if it's like the 5th gen, is that a Greddy EVO?) but all of the visual mods are amazing.

thanks for all the compliments guys!

the muffler is acutally a Stillen muffler connected to a WSP B-pipe. It is, contrary to popular belief, much quieter than any other aftermarket B-pipe that ive heard.

Very Nice... I always see your car up at NCSU when i go there to visit my sister, I may be joining the NCSU crew next year if that is where i decide to go. Are you involved in the wolfpack motorsports engineering program there? Again the car looks great

hey thanks man, yea you should definitely come to State!! I tried to do wolfpack motorsports my freshman year but it was just too much of a time commitment for me while im doing engineering and holding a job.

haha, thanks Jason. i do wish it was white, i love white w/ a black tint. Wanna give me your VLSD....?

thanks guys

jxkim - they are 18 x 8 Konig Villains. I needed a wider wheel so I can put some sticky 245s on for when I get the supercharger installed (hopefully springtime). Id say theres about a centimeter of clearance between the spokes and the caliper.

Awfully clean for an NC car with the weather we've been having. Nice car like always. You still need the stillen kit though

What happened to the other (?multispoke?) wheels?

haha, thanks man........ i do need a Stillen Kit. Unfortunately I couldnt keep those wheels bc the offset wasnt enough for the BBK by a long shot. I loved the wheels but I really like these and they are 8" wide

you'll have to steal it from Mike if he ends up buying the car from me sans my wheels of course.

Wow, that wheel setup looks absolutely perfect! Seriously, it looks so good right now you almost don't need to kit it. Its such a clean look!

So you decided to keep the supercharger? That's going to be insane...i really think you can keep this look + super and you'll have such a sweet ride w/out kit. It just fits perfect now.

Ahh, i'm jealous...bbk, projectors, super.... Nice job!

Thanks man! I have to say your car is by far my favorite Pebble Beige. Yea, Ive worked out my finances so Ill be able to keep the SC kit but it may be till springtime before I can install it. Once thats in I just want some black racing seats for the finishing touches. Ive always been a fan of the stillen kit but we'll see what happens once I get everything else done. Again, thanks for the compliments!

thanks guys! Im not sure about the offset.... ive been looking online but its hard to find the 18's bc Konig doesnt make them anymore I dont think. I do have a 5mm spacer on the rears tho.

Jason - They will be goin on soon.... Im changing the look of the cefiro/projectors soon and adding a CF hood..... stay tuned, haha

Oh, Im just about to finish up my degree in Materials Science Engineering in 08. It deals with alot of metals, ceramics, and polymers at a molecular level and manipulating these materials for different applications. I was in Mechanical for 3 years but I decided I like this better.

changing the look? how so? that will be a nice touch.. i got my CF lip, eyelids, and hood all at the same time.. didnt like the extra care that had to be taken for the lip.. got rid of it.. and then kinda grew out of the eyelids.. hope you enjoy though.. material sciences.. that does sound interesting.. im mechanical right now.. i wish OU had more to offer though.. i dont like their system.. anyways.. let me know when you get them on.. wouldnt mind seeing the pics..
