Hey Em, just wanna give you props for making our cars' parts easier to find, and for the coverage. I can find kits and all power ups i need for a reasonable price so thank you for that, and all the others who contributed. Props to all you.

Wow. Props to you Emerald! I have witnessed 3 of the things most men strive for in life. Hot Car, How Woman, but nothing beats Hot Woman that did her own work on Hot Car.

I was actually curious as to why you went with the Rear mounted turbo setup vs. a traditional manifold style. Secondly, do you like the rear mounted setup, and if you could change anything about it what would it be?

I hate being a semi Poor College Student, if i had $20,000 and didnt need my car for a month or so....yea

Hi Em it's been a while;

That is a very nice looking car you have created and the turbo V8 is a hard one to accomplish, I have looked and looked at it for a long time and then spoke to David Phan several times but in the end went for the Eaton supercharger as it was an easy fit.

I too dont like the rear arches but there are ways of saying it without being so offensive (oops, I just said it), you must drop by TIF and throw up some pics for the boys in England.

Bill.

Anyone who can make their own body parts out of carbon fiber by hand is really gifted.

Anything is possible man. Just search ebay and look for some transparent material. Better yet, try to ask Ms. Emerald, maybe she can help. But then again, those disgruntled people earlier in the thread may have pushed her away.

it may seem that way, however Em doesnt really visit the site regularly or post regularly anymore, i imagine she is quite busy these days...plus im pretty sure it would take a little more than a couple of jealous, immature people to push her away... since ive been a member, ive only seen her post a few times, it would probably be a lot easier to get a hold of her through her website, or driftgirl.org

I just realized something... (no, this is not a negative comment on her car ).

Emerald, your car was on the stands for the same month of 2 magazines. I'm not pointing fingers or anything, but how did you get away with it? Being in the scene for as long as we have, we both know that it is a HUGE no no to shoot your car with 2 separate magazines especially if they are for the same month. How did you do it?
