3rd time's a charm
 
Well, I figure after rebuilding this car 3 times now in 3 years (I get bored every winter up here in Canada) I'd finally get it right ... and I believe I have (for me anyway)

Could not be happier with the handling, the stance, the sound and the crazy acceleration.

Huge thanks to all the guys that helped me out here when I needed some assistance. Nods to Vince at Meanstreets (btw got the LS7 clutch sorted out) Roger and the guys at Speedtech, Manny at Dasilva Motorsports for the incredible installation of the LS7, Harold at New Image that did an amazing job working with me on the interior and the all you guys on the forum here that inspired me to keep plugging forward when I followed all of your amazing builds.

Thank you all

Thanks Ben, again can't say enough about you guys, one of the best companies I've ever had the pleasure to deal with.

Beautiful car! We could probably use a few more pictures:goggles:

cpd004 08-29-2015 12:12 PM

One of my favorite 1st gen's so far.

GregWeld 08-29-2015 12:13 PM

I love this car! It turned out really nice - nice blend of "look at me" color - and the right power choice (insane) and the interior is classic and looks like it belongs in the car. Overall a 10.


I don't get the license plate. Call me stupid... it'll make sense once you tell me. DOH!

Dave they look like Eddie Motorsports. Could be wrong though...

Braces
 
Hey guys,
Dave, I believe I grabbed those off fleabay ..

I like this CAR!! :trophy-1302:

Hydratech® 09-03-2015 09:42 AM

Fantastic build!

How do you like the braking actions?

There IS a difference - Thank you for choosing Hydratech!

Sheck44 09-03-2015 09:57 AM

Thank you
 
Blake ... thank you !! and I like the way it handles .. :thumbsup:

Paul, could NOT be happier with your braking system, perfect easy install, and the braking is phenomenal .. the setup feels as close to a production performance car as you could possibly get, and Jim was awesome to deal with

Cheers
Steve
