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!
