Nothing too fancy, but I came close to spending more on mods than the actual car. I drove it 36 miles stock, before I ripped it apart. Still have all the OEM parts brand new stored away ;)

Don't worry, that license plate doesn't exist anymore:

Only change since the first round of mods is carbon quad exhaust tips instead of the smaller chrome ones.

I wanted an RS5, but I absolutely love driving manual for the feel. So went with the S5. Next step is to get a supercharger pulley + ECU tune! Probably going with GIAC tune at a local shop.

Breaking parts is part of having a Big Block LOL. What was left of the first transmission in my 73 Bird. Behind a mild 454.

Built this about 10 years ago. I still drive it now and then. Really want to swap over to automatic. And add A/C, its hot here in the south.

Nice rides especially Doostur, Codym808 and kinetic! I like Japanese and Euro stuff best. I have been into both cars and SW tanks since I was 15 back in 95 but cars are my obsession. I have built a whole bunch of stuff over the years. In 2002, the real stuff started with an S14 240 silvia conversion using a 95 240 and clip from Japan. Then an E34 BMW 525 with turbo M50 swap. A 72 Datsun 510 with Rebello L20b 2.3L, BMW E39 touring with GM LSx 427 swap and T56 Tremec Magnum and now the current rides are the BMW E38 M7 with an ESS supercharged S62 M5 engine swap, custom interior, BBK, M5 diff etc and my current build, a show car 86 Nissan Z31 300zx. Building an RB28 stroker naturally aspirated with ITB's, S14 240sx rear subframe Feal suspension, Watanabe wheels and Bride seats.
