Let's meet up for some before and after shots!

 

I'm down. I'll hit you up!

 

Looking forward to this Mike, it's been awhile.

 

Thanks B. I've been looking forward to the added power as well

 

Interestingly enough my parts should be in when you are dropping your car off. That means I will delay you a week by borrowing your car after you drop it off!

 

Great news, Mike. Can't wait for some updates!

 

Boo, I think you did delay me a week. Ron just asked if we can push to the next weekend...

 

 

 

The next phase has begun! Oh yeah, did the steering wheel thing and went crazy with a chassis mount wing (DIY threads on both coming soon)

 

Wow Mike, great shots, that interior is looking killer!
Do you have a link to that Mazda info?
Glad to see your G is moving ahead, I know you must be chomping at the bit.
Congrats on all you've done and from the look of all those boxes, quite a bit more ahead.

 

Thanks Brad. No info on the Mazda, I'm sure I could get some. It's a pretty sick drift build. Stoked for the future of The Black Pearl!

 

That wing is HUGE. Do you notice a big difference?

 

Once it gets up to speed you can really feel the downforce. I'll have to play with the angle of the wing to get it perfect though.
