I've owned it for 3 years and these are the first pics I've taken. They're not great but it gives you an idea. Bought it for $900 then proceeded to put $900 worth of wheels and tires on it! Replaced the clutch and m/c, relocated the TFI, installed a ported E6, fabbed a CAI, added gauges and a stereo, fixed all leaks and gave it a good cleaning. 175k and counting! Drive it daily, rain or shine. Never breaks down. Quite possibly the best car I've ever owned! I absolutely love it!!

I have the same wheels. They are the only ones I could find with the correct offset.

Thanks for all the kind words guys! Yeah, I definitely got a deal for $900!

Keith Nubel - That's a gorgeous car! That is exactly the stance I eventually want for mine! Would it be possible for you to tell me EXACTLY what was required to achieve that stance, including name brands? Any help is much appreciated!

Sharp car!! I really like that paint combo too. Those colors work well together. They look pretty classy. Nice score.
