Well gee...look I finally got those pics. This is my first pic post so hopefully all will go well. There's nothing like the first time. And you're right, being one of 10-15 people with a V-6 does sound tempting. I already have plans laid out for the 4 though. We'll see next year when I get around to it.

The first pic is the EBC Slotted / Dimpled rotors. Great compared the factories, but still "mushy". I have heard this is normal in these cars. I have found a sight in Australia that claims to have helped solve this issue by building a brace for the main unit. They say it stops the 1 1/2" - 2" movement in it and changes the pedal feel drastically.

The second is the short shifter. Best $38 I have even spent on a car and it only took about 10 minutes to install.

The third is a box a through together for now. It's two alpine 10's and a 200 watts Alpine mono sub amp. It flips nickels on the sunroof. Too sweet. I still have all but maybe an inch of my leg room too.

Yes...I even built in cupholders! Best invention for this car next to the short shifter.

Jamie Hawkins, but he sold the car last year. I never got a chance to see it. I hadn't seen him since high school
