Didn't know your car was in pieces when you got it. Nice work to get it all together in a relatively short period of time.

Like marc and pete said, I had no idea you put that much work into that car. When Chu said he was helping you work on your new-to-you IX RS, I figured he meant tuning and installing bolt-ons. I had no idea it came with the motor and trans in separate places. Makes me feel a little guilty for trying to pull your car by hand with the tow hooks at the track a couple weeks ago .

Awesome thread btw.

I really shouldn't talk, I've had the same ebay shifter in my car since 05. It was the first mod I did.

Ebay doesn't make anything. Buying a hks bov on ebay doesn't mean its not going to work as well as buying it from an online store (unless its a knockoff )

Most vendors have ebay stores anyways including my sponsor TougeFactory

Great work Thai. The car looks awesome

Must be nice not having to tote a trailer to the track on the weekends

Keep up the good work

That was one of the bigest selling point for me to pick up the evo. It was nice to have at the track but getting it there wasn't fun.
