Default A Few New Mods (Engine, Wheels, Ect)....lots Of New Pics Of The Firehawk!

The SOM car is on jack stands waiting on some suspension stuff to get back from the chrome shop...so I got board and spent some time on my Firehawk today.

I wanted to see what 19in wheels would look like on it, and since I had some just setting there I figured I would put them on. I think the back tires are too big for the Formula body lines but the rim size looks perfect TO ME. I have a SLP/Bilstien kit to go on the car so it will be about 3/4in lower as soon as I get around to putting it on. I am thinking SP500s would look better on it too...

And even though its my driver...I just cant stand stock. I added the MSD coils and wires (and NGK plugs), the SLP TB, a Hotchkiss STB (powder coated white) and had the MAF ends and VCs powder coated white. Its at least presentable for now...









And I added a little low end to the factory Monsoon system.

looks great! I think you have a little too much $$ on your hands.

The rear wheels do look a bit wide but thats just nitpicking.

I think the back tires will look a whole lot better when the car sits a little lower. GetaV8's car looked similar at different angles because of the ride height, it made the tires look huge in the back.

Looks awesome man, thats an excuse to get another set of CCW's!

GOD thats sexy. Fronts seriously turned me on. Rears look a little beefy to match, but I still think they look good.
