      By the end of the year I plan to begin the all wheel drive system, using suzuki parts modified and create some butterfly doors maybe.

      I give props to all the hard work gone into the cars in this thread and here at this site, lets keep it going.

                This summer I want to finish my turbo upgrade and engine managment.
                Aspire swap its all done.
                Neukin monifold arrived, finally...
                Dropped off the monifold so the turbo would get bolt up to it almost two weeks ago, What a luck.....
                Getting 22'' slick's, current ones are 20''
                98 Integra gsr seats are waiting to go in.
                If faster then 11.5 a roll cage will be added.

                When I finish all the performance mods, I will redo the interior and body plus paint to make it look mint......not this summer though.
