man once you get the nitrous in there make sure to post some more - that one guy joeyjoey I think did a BADASS stealth install where he had the shit hidden back in his trunk - like inside the plastic lining on the inside - so you couldn't see it at all w/ out removing a panel or something

[Daxenth]

Thank you muscles and Joey im just another grayish Gs on the road but yeah i was thinking of that or the spare tire. but yeah i need to mod a bit more before the nos. im healing after the price but it should be worth it now im bargin hunting. looking for used. etc. also looking for what else i need for a larger shot. and i post alot as is! haha my ppd is like 15 or something love this fuckin site lol

[JDub]

Very nice man!

You already know you've helped me out with my start to modding. I'm right there with you in terms of lowering, I might just keep it stock. Not that big of a deal to me, lol.

[zumspeedsupra]

yeah ohio roads suck a fat one...


and thank you guys! appreciate the comments! and im gonna keep at it. no doubt

[Ballfade]

how dare you try to steal my GS-N title, ill stab you

[Daxenth]

you were black guy with nawzz and now your stock STOP TORMENTING MEEEEE

lol

[XxkevinchuxX]

keith when you said gs-n i giggled a bit...cause youre black...:]

anyway dax looks really good! just make sure to pay attention to detail like the amp wires and led bar in trunk, clean it up a tad and it'll look like pure sex. and i believe the color youre looking to spell is satin MEISAI.

now, i must say. LOWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR! i have all the perfect parts for sale for you....2 sets of springs and a cf bumper cover...all for cheap...so eh eh pm me and i'll hook it up.

[Daxenth]

lmao i never realized that.... and idk how else to hide the wires. unless i get longer ones i can run them through the carpet then. and same with the Led bar i suppose. i tucked it in more (not in those pics) so it goes straight into the seat and is hidden from there. as of now i have about 4 in of that wire and a foot of sub cables showing and everything else is hid. ill take better pics after i strip my center console and wash her tomorrow. and you know ive been thinking of taking her to the track and a lower center of gravity and less wind resistance might help a bit on the time.... but she is a daily driver... and im gonna ralli the front bro :/ sorry man. but that is a good deal. if i was sticking to the cf theme i woulda grabbed it from you already

[XxkevinchuxX]

i'd say relocate the amp to behind the box and run the wires under the box/carpet.

[Daxenth]

i used to have it like that. im about to put it back though. this one has fans on it and all you hear are the whirring of the fans if its quiet enough. and i just might re route the wires as well.

[XxkevinchuxX]

i would move the bar down the hump so its hidden when the trunk is open, and run the wire under the carpet...heres a ms pain lol.

the blue is the bar and the red is the wire route under the carpet. i think it would be so much more clean.

as far as the amp since you have the subs facing the cabin i'd put the amp lower on the back and run the cables under the box...or if you wanna get fancy build an amp rack on the back where the hatch latch is and run the wires under the floor panel...i plan on doing that.

[Daxenth]

some damn fine Ms paint there. ill probably end up doing that. eliminate the stupid ass clips and hide the wire a bit better. and idk what the whole amp rack and jazz is... lol im gonna move the amp though. probably now actually. im bored anyway haha

yep, GS-Negro

[dejectedangle]

idk i was just always told that mounting your amp on your sub box is like the worst thing to do for it. but good choice of amp i have the older style and it still works from 2007

yes its bad because of the vibrations.heard many stories where this caused amp failures.

[roy_robinsonV]

looks good dude

[Daxenth]

New pics and a half naked jeff in the rear bumper if you look closely lmao i gave her a much needed bath today and figure why the hell not

[Daxenth]

edited with new head unit. will post pics soon

[XxkevinchuxX]

what you doing with the old head unit?

[Daxenth]

its in my winter car again. gotta have tunes to keep me sane and focused. lol

[Daxenth]

nuff said

[zumspeedsupra]

Uh ohhhhh

[Daxenth]

lol uh oh is right. this summer the streets are MINE! haha kidding but not gonna say im not gonna crack the bottle once or twice on the streets....

[zumspeedsupra]

Lol do it, why get it if your never gonna use it!

[Daxenth]

oh im gonna use it bro im just gonna use it wisely. lol its not something i want to have to fill up as often as my gas tank.

[NitroGlisson]

I have something you need. My new bumper does not have a place for the OEM fogs and I'm having a hard time figuring what to do with them. Thinking about going with some aftermarket fogs with halos....if I do I'll ping you back and we can work out a deal on my fogs + 8 K HIDs in them.

[Daxenth]

that would be cool cause i could use some fogs. warm ground with cold air? yeah haha

[DarkSidEclipse]

Im not gonna say lower. I am only going to say this. Jeff I have done many things in my car now that I would have not even dared to try on stock suspension. Like hitting the Governor going in strait line. I won't even go into what I do in the twisties lol. Springs, STB, and Sway bar I guarantee you won't regret it will be like driving a whole different beast. Plus she launch's better, lot tighter, and less sloppy on the springs

Go with Works, or Eibach Pro kit they are only 1.5-1.6 which as far as I am concerned is perfect handling (I'm not so much into show). Also keeps here high enough not to fuck her up on curbs, and the shitty roads of Hawaii. (I gaurantee the shittiest in the USA)

[Daxenth]

See the thing i was more concerned about were my LEDs. but im doing a re fit this winter. gonna be flush as fuck. and im honestly considering lowering now. its going to be a project thats for damn sure but im definitely going to get sways for sure. both front ad rear. and i dont know what STB is haha. but im going to get sways and possibly lower here in summer. cause i know it will help once i start taking her to the drags too.
