[QUOTE=K99Raptor]11k and possibly my marriage. I'll have to get back to you on that.



I had Josh compile the mod list since I'd never have remembered everything. LOL, a lot of it is still being paid for by him on his credit cards! (THANKS JOSH!)

One update though. The Ipod cable's gone and replaced with a Kenwood IP-500 ipod controler. That way I can put my I pod in the glove box, control it from the cd player, and not have to worry about someone breaking in to just to steal that.[/QUOTE]
great car you have there man just wondering though would that work with the stock radio ?

The IP-500 won't work with the stocker since it's designed to work only with kenwoods. However, I you need to look into getting an AUX-POD for your car. This allows at least a little control using your stearing wheel controls. Do a search for I-pod under the stereo section and do a little reading to make sure its combatible with your set up.

Hope this helps!

Oh, yeah. The picture where the ipod is in the cup holder is from where I had the I-pod cable. Not the controller box that I have now. The old cable just sent the signal and charged the Ipod while connected, so I still had to do all the controlling from the Ipod itself. It was a really convenient way to mount the ipod if you're having to go that route. Now I just have it in the glove box since I got the IP-500. I almost prefer the old way though. It takes forever to search for a artist or anything using the cd player. I've just made playlists and set the thing to random to accommodate the slowness. The good ole' "set it and forget it!"

The rest of the mod list is below the pics on the first page.

The rears are drag radials, and I'm actually going to be selling them. I need to get some tires for daily driving use and those bad boys SUCK in the rain! Anything over 30 mph with standing water is suicide. It use to be a weekend only, nice weather car but no more. I'm really worried switching to a regular tire. I've broken these loose accelerating mid turn, street tires are going to be a handful!

LS1z2802,
So far I'm still married, but with all the attention that I'm getting now, I doubt I will be for long. The other day some chick walked up to me after parking outside a restuarant and asked if I was single... I was holding my wife's D*mn HAND! lol, needless to say, we had a quiet dinner

Thanks for all the welcomes and compliments.
