Default Re: So...what time are you picking up Bobby DeNiro ? ....

I have my BBS's but am not comfortable using them very often with the amount and style of my driving. I actually recently destroyed a stock-size Pilot Sport A/S on a pothole in KY (on the interstate no less). It's not worth destroying a BBS over, which is why I tried to stick with the stock size. Here are some with my BBS's on.

Default Holy Shiites !! Perfect reason why there needs to be a Ronin II ....

that looks hott !

For the sequel I'm thinking a D3 S8 w/ NOS vs. an AMG E63 dueling in NYC.

My AMG has a really hard airbox also...could you rig a dry shot for it ? Its the C36 w/ an inline 6, single airbox.

In your S8 , the shot passes thru the airfilter ?

Default Re: Write up.

Add me to the list of those that want a write up. I would love to do this. Was even thinking of a wet shot system using the LPG system. No puddling problems when shooting 2 gases into the intake manifold. So please, if you have the time a write up would be great.

Nice! : ) I agree about the size of the wheels though. They do look a bit small for your car.

Default Re: ****!

A local shop about 2 minutes from my house charged me $200 to do the mid-trim around the car, push in the crappy fitting front bumper and put screws in it so it didn't keep popping out, and glue on the lower door trim that kept sticking out at the back. I expect another $200-$250 to do the upper trim, but I haven't been back to ask him yet.

Default DEFINATELY on my to do list for the 97.

How much was the NOS setup costing you? Very nice job and I love the way your car looks. Chromies need to be bigger though, but I like the style.

Default MORE PICS...

I snapped a few more pics today ... ones that weren't huddled up in the small garage bay. It gives a better idea of what the wheels look like on the car as well as one of the engine bay.
