Thanks man!
They seem to get mixed reviews. I usually hate gold, but something about those wheels... I just couldn't say no.

I've always wanted a kind of brushed aluminum lip too. kinda that dull luster. I think that would look good too. I think my RX7 may get a bright yellow lip. I just don't know yet.

Coming soon!

Hymee charged....Very nice how much? lol i've honestly never seen a hymee unit on an 8 until now. How do you like it? Pro's and cons?

why thank you my good man. Superchargers are expensive as hell. The Hymee unit looks sick tho. You could pull off a total sleeper look with the engine cover. Just gotta hide the FMIC somehow

Kane 07-07-2010 12:15 AM

IC is easy to hide, look at my pics, you'd never know it is there.

you have a point. Unless you bent down to look there isn't any way you could see it and chances are if you came up behind someone they wouldn't see it down there.

ReVenomous 07-07-2010 05:23 PM

Damn,looking at these pictures makes me almost want to cry, eh I'll get another 8 someday, I'll just need to be patient.

what happened to your 8?

btw kane your 8 is beautiful. Very clean, tasteful ride

ReVenomous 07-08-2010 09:58 PM

I couldn't afford to make the payments on her anymore, and had already started modding her, so I had to let her go. Here's a few pics.http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pGd2KHB5JB...0/DSCI0032.JPGhttp://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pGd2KHB5JB...0/DSCI0034.JPGhttp://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pGd2KHB5JB...0/DSCI0031.JPG

Damn I miss that car, I'm not gonna cry, wow, maybe I will.:o15:
BTW This was after I was rear ended and I had the whole car redone, kinda gave it a new lease on life, that was until I had to hand over the keys( I apoligize if this appears to be a `threadjack,just sharing given the fact I was asked about the car.

Almost, :lol: I just need to get a header. Then its coilover, sways, new bushings, and front bumper and side skirts time. I am also going to redo my Fluidyne single oil cooler setup to make the install a bit cleaner.

Thanks dude, the modding never stops :lol: I love the BHR pipe with the HKS. I actually absolutely hated the HKS Hi-power with my two previous midpipes, it was just unbearable. But I waited for the BHR pipe and I am glad I did, it really transformed the sound of the HKS and the car in general.

Th BHR midpipe made is way more quiet but it's still on the louder side but not loud enough for a ticket or anything. Under load it's loud but at cruise its perfect. Personally I love it.
