new pics and mods

It's been awhile and finally I got my busted camera replaced. So here are some new pics and mods I've done since the last post a year ago.

There is a pretty big dent on the driverside door, someone did the damage at a baseball tournament. It's not very noticeable from these pics but in person you can spot it a mile away.

I put in a new Alpine indash DVD with NAV, satellite radio and bluetooth all controlled by the head unit. Can't really see that from these pics.

The next mod was the new rims and tire (Bremmen Klasse 20" X 8.5" sitting on Falken 452's 235 30ZR20) These are totally not practical where I live. There are big ass pot holes down every street.

Put in new Ractive racing seats. (It's was a pain in the ass to install for the driver side. I was hoping to use my original powerseat motor but no such luck.

The last mod was the the GM supercharger. A really good friend of mine helped me put this in. Surprisingly, it's alot easier than I thought it would be. We had it in and running in about 8 hours minus 3 of pissin around.

Eibach lowering springs are on ordered and still debating if I should get the KYB GR-2 or the KYB AGX. The AGX are supposed to be really good but I can't afford them right now.

You do have another set of rims, those rims while blinging, don't they hurt performance?

I can't believe you have the stock intake on there.

And those rims are nuts. Clear your corners!

off to a good start, its always better to do the major mods first, then you wont run into trouble with them later on from other mods already done to the car.

Your wheels make me want to gouge out my eyes. Those belong nowhere near a car that is boosted. What do they weight 40+ lbs? Congrats you just negated all gains from the charger.

despite the fact that the wheels weigh more than the car itself (for those of you who dont realize.. that was sarcasm).. not everyone wants a 10 second alero lol.. whatever tickles his pickle, and to each their own.

I think he got the charger, so he could use the rims without sacrificing the stock performance...

Great way to waste $4k and have a slow ghetto fabulous car that sounds like a a vacuum cleaner. Wasteful IMO but hey whatever floats your boat. Personally I enjoy burning money.
