Nice fr s

>>15052319
I've been loving that style of aftermarket taillights on the frs/gt86/brz

>>15052153
Yeah a C3, I'm curious what gave it away though.

>>15048594
Good job OP, that is going to look nice for all of about 10 seconds.

I got myself one of these for the AW11 I don't own yet. Insurance against the shitty three spoke steering wheels

How easy is doing headers on a 5.0 without pulling the motor?

>Riven
die.

>>15056365
Very easy. Took two people. Total install time accounting for food break was 8.5 hours. I could do it much faster now that I know what I'm doing though.

>>15056437
Interesting, I want to get a 5.0 of my own some day and do a bunch of bolt on mods. That's a bbk shorty, right? Also, why are all the wires out?

I put the blc slap on, and now my rod bearings are migrating into my oil at a pretty fast pace.
still need to pull the pan and see if i can get away with bearings alone.

tfw my I4 sounds like an H4 with unequal length headers
