hey... your car isn't a bad color either. just keep at it like your neptune and you'll probably make it look even that much better than yours and even mine. plus, you probably have more knowledge on the car than i do. lol
Man they look good. I wanna do some in the summer time. Waiting on funds to come in.lol. I don't mind takin my time on my car tho/ Watchin it grow. So SURELY you've tested those brakes out? How much better are they?
I really haven't had a chance to test them out yet since I am still breaking the rotors and pads in. One of my team members told me that you have to ride the brakes slowly and then sometimes slam on them hard but not like a skid stop hard. that is to warm them up so that the brake pads and rotors get a feel for each other basically. Kind of confusing. lol. Ill let you know once they are broken in how they feel.

thnx bud. now time to save up for my next project. it will take me a while but its seriously going to be a one of a kind. next to purchase is the RK Sport Body Kit from Andy's Auto Sport. im glad i get my 10% off so that will help and after that, its on like donkey kong. i talked about making this car into something fast and im not backing down on that idea until i am done. wish my luck everyone
hey mando, how did you set up the black piece under the front bumper again? what was it that you used and how did yo attach it? wasnt there a DIY on the boards to install one of those??
thnx man. well now that im about 4 hours south of you in TX, we should meet sometime. lol. Im down in Brownsville. I moved back in August from Phoenix AZ. Here are some new pics of the G ride. loltook home a 1st place award in the Compact Car Street category. This was from the Spring Break Jam Car Show at South Padre Island.
Another update... Just ordered the RKSport Front Bumper. Going to order some new fogs, cuz the current ones are cracked and trying to get the 02-04 black housing head lights. I also installed a nice set of Cipher Auto Racing Seats. I will post pics of the seats in a bit after i load the pics up. The seats hold up great for the price I paid for them.
i know! i want that bumper too. whats odd is that there sites out there that list the RKSport bumper and not sure if they have it or not... but the only bumper we can get is the PsychoVibe kit.
Thank you man.just wait til you see my next mod. already have some falken Ziex tires waiting. unfortunately, i know I will get bashed for doing this but eh... its my car and i enjoy it.
you got it. working on an some varrstoen TE37 18x9.5 with a +34 offset matt black wheels with Falken Ziex tires. 225/40/18. going to try the stretch and wide. then after that, time to save up for the air suspension. i forgot all about wanting to make this motor quick and said, screw it. going show. lol
So I am thinking about these wheels. Just debating whether I should order them powder coated Bronze or get them matte black. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...a0286Probably going to go KSport Bag kit, if I can find it. I have found it under the Matrix a while ago but I don't know what happened. My car is paid off, finally, in Dec. That means, MORE SPLURGE MONEY! lol
