yeah got the car tagged, and running great.... only problem Im having now is when I first step on the gas, it kinda stumbles a little bit.... then it really goes, but I found out one of the wires for the converter lockup switch was unplugged..... so might just be that, scanned it and said the injector had an open circuit, which I found one unplugged? dont know how that happened....but its fixed, also came up with a MAF code, so dont know if its done or what..... had to replace a leaking axle seal and bearing, and havent bled the brakes to get it on the road again, doing that tonight then hopefully its all good to go.... as theres a big show in Saratoga, NY in two weeks... which Im going to, and hopefully can drive the car up.... but all in all runs good and strong, gonna hook up some digital autometer gauges that are going to be hidden mounted in the factory radio delete plate, but other than that Im doing small fixes on some thing.... but thanks for asking heres some updated pictures...

Yeah, those are some older pictures, its been cleaned up just a bit more.. looks better, tucked the wires, put some more interior parts in it, etc.... wheels are 20x9 on the back, and 18x8.5 in the front, gotta lower it some more, so Im going with some coil overs, once I determine which ones to get.... then the back needs brought down about an inch to an inch and a half... then the stance will be perfect....
