are you selling this car? because i just saw the ad up on cars.com for it a moment ago

Found that listing, that's probably the old ad. You can see the engine still has the cover on, stock intake. The interior doesn't have the Alpine unit installed. And it's up for $9,500, the amount OP said the seller wanted for it. They likely just forgot to take it down.

It's still mine guys. Old add. I think my son would kill me if I told him I was selling it.

I've got some updates coming. Haven't had a big chance to work on it.

Makes me happy to hear. I'd hate for this car to go to someone who won't take as good care of it as you.

Radio wiring done and trim back on. This Alpine looks good in there.

Did some work in the trunk for sons car. Should look familiar. He will be getting two 10" subs in the rear deck lid running IB. Morel components up front and Alpine 4" rears. Two JL Audio 600/4 will run whole system.

Basically had a guy give me an Escort 8500 X50 radar detector at work. Figured it couldn't hurt anything. Installed permanent under mirror with a mount for a corvette mirror. It may look crooked in pics but it is straight as an arrow. Can be taken off mount if needed.

Did you open up the factory intake? Do you notice a difference in performance?

Haven't updated this one in a while. Ordered Tein advance coilovers, new front upper and lower control arms and braided brake lines for the baby boys car. Getting rid of the gixer drew crap. He's pretty stoked about it.

Looking good Shane!

How is your SC doing?

What didn't you like about it? I've thought about giving the Gixxer Drew a try for the new SC...

I'm in the midst of installing braided brake lines, too. I bought a set just after doing the LS400 calipers on the old car, so needed an excuse to take it apart again and swap lines. Naturally, I bought another car to justify it.

My car is doing great. Been daily driving for about a month now. Need new tranny. That will be next on agenda. I have TT one just needs to go to ATF.

t2d2,

I think the Gixxer Drew is to bouncy. Maybe it's the springs the guy bought before I got the car but I don't like it. The new advance are adjustable and only $576.00 shipped. Hard to beat.

Too bouncy, interesting. You must like teeth-chattering firm. I haven't read up extensively on the Gixxer setup, but you're the first I've heard describing it as soft. I was thinking of putting them on the new car, assuming any used ride will need shocks, but they appear to have been replaced pretty recently, so that's on the back burner.
