Default Re: Updated pics of my project

Marlin. That is actually a 7. It is a Euro version, so it doesn't look as stodgy as the ones sold here with the giant bumpers.

I lowered it an inch with M tech springs, cutting off one coil. Also installed Bilstein HD struts, so it is nice and stiff for a big car. Converted it from an auto to a 5 speed, and used an M5 clutch.

It is a factory turbo car. I modified it to run 15 psi (factory is a whopping 6 psi).

I have over 306,000 miles on that car now. Cheap fun (but only if you can work on it yourself).

BTW, got stripes painted on the Z. I mean really, it isn't a Z without stripes (yes, I know you could buy them stripe delete).
