                  SICK! i was trying to find a shot of a 94 front end with a lip to see how it would look because i always thought the lip looked better with a non 94 front end but hey it looks sick to me! im going to be having the same setup in the front too but with a familia grille and the 626 lip along with the 94 setup! looks good bro

                    well not much has been done, just got the motor separated from the crossmember and the front and rear suspension is all apart, basically im in the rebuild part now, going to start with the rear suspension first, going to weld some seams and holes up on the crossmember, with the hassle of cleaning up, possibly boxing in the ttl's and the cost of new eurothane bushing in mind, i decided to just build my own. There going to be nice and simple with round stock DOM tubing and custom eurothane bushing (can make cheap). will be making a jig tomorow so il post some pics up of everything then. But for now i got some random pics of the two cars, o and i got the slicks mounted on the EGT rims

                        I <3 mines . Looking at those I'm really considering stripping the black paint off of mine. I've been a murdered out kind of guy for years but looking at those has changed my mind a little.

                        What size tire is that? 195/50? 185/60? Bald?

                              looks good, if i ever do get those EGT rims, i would either keep them stock or paint them gunmetal...
