One of our customers brought us a car and gave us the green light to turn it into a monster. He wanted something fast, but at the same time cosmetically good looking. Here is what we stripped the car down to. It's leaving us this week to venture off to the body shop for a full lambo giallo orion pearl paint job, full shaved/tucked engine bay, and voltex widebody.

Pics of the evo do not work..only the suby.

AkumaMotorsport

Yes, I know. The suby is under my personal photobucket.

I am going to upgrade the photobucket account tomorrow so we can have more bandwidth. It seems too many people looked at it at once and it got shut down, and even with deleting pics it still won't let the pics show up. I will take care of it first thing tomorrow morning.

Sorry for the delay!

Dimitri, just an FYI about photobucket. Their photo quality is much worse than Flickr when using them to host. I've noticed a big difference between my photos, and that is my I try to only use Flickr for my shots now.

Just wanted to give you a heads up.

Can't wait to see what this car turns into.
