ImTheVoiceOfGod's TWFA5 of awesomeness. (So many pictures, it will break your eyes!)

**ImTheVoiceOfGod** · 11-24-2008, 11:31 PM

My turn for a build thread.

I traded in my 06 Nighthawk Black Pearl FG2.........

June 6th 2008 I picked up my 08 Taffeta White FA5.

After having the car for 10 days I had to leave it sitting in my driveway for almost 6 months while I finished off my assignment overseas. While it sucked being away from my car for so long after I just got it, it gave me time and resources to save money so I could buy many parts.

So after a long nearly 6 months I come home...... and out journey begins...

Got home and she was just as I left her.

Unwrapped. OEM car cover is awesome. Was damn near as clean as when I covered it, and no scuffs or marks.

Started up on the very first try.

First parts go on the same day: Corsport Shifter Bushings

Next day

Broadway 270mm Flat Mirror

Mugen Visors

Hybrid Mirrors

And then the real work begins.....

Wrinkle White Powdercoated Valve Cover, Mugen Oil Cap and JDM Oil dipstick.

The money maker finds its new home.

Almost finished.

Customlightz Retrofit TSX Projectors w/ E46 Replica Shrouds

All finished!!!!!!

First Start.

Wheels and Suspension starting to go on.

Finished and rubs something terrible.

Front.

Rear.

Red Suade Doors

Push Start that I still havent finished wiring.

JDM Hazard.

Corsport Hood Spacers.

Another engine shot

Corsport Battery Tiedown and Ixizhood Hood Damper.

And my dyno run.

Oscar Jackson Sr. and my weak dyno results.

Driving to Vegas

In Vegas.
