wow, all i can say is wow....

the motor(fully built one) is again wow... idk what else to say.

That is definately the sickest sleeper/all around 240 i have ever seen. On your 60ft times, if u havent drove this car like the way it is, then give it 2-3 weeks tops, before u will get nice and good.

But again you may have been used to driving it, and my thoughts are all wrong.

but all in all.... wow.

great job

The motor does look good, and so does the car but it could use a little something. A lip-kit? Like the wheels btw.

No offense taken...you own an s14 . I remember the days of wanting to "slam" my vehicle as low as it could go. The car has been raised up 1 1/2 inches all around this year...If you look you'll see the rear 255/50/16 drag radials stick outside of the fenders...as do the 225/50/16's up front. The car squats hard off of the launch and the rear fenders dig into the tread of the rear tires. As for the front, they rub a little bit when driving...So lowering the car anymore would be impractical. I chose to go with speed this year over looks...that's what I'm concerned about. That's why I'm aiming for high 12's on a stock t25 with bolt-ons.
