He comes from a wealthy family and has a GREAT job, so hes doing fine and doing an extensive build. Im just gonna say its a stroker and its by AMS . Im guessing piston rings though. Compression test showed 160 160 40 0.

If you get new wheels and want to get rid of your BBS's ill detail your car for free for like a year

Well im getting 700 bucks back from the gov't and I'm wanting to know what you think I should do. I could either do a few apperance upgrades (Greddy front lip to replace my F'ed up one, repaint my front bumper and reclear the wing), or do a few power upgrades (fuel pump, ETS IC piping kit, O2 housing and retune). Im leaning towards the power upgrades as the front lip isn't that big of a deal, but I respect ya'lls opinion.

I say go for the power mods. You would be able to put those on now instead of waiting for the nice weather to do cosmetic changes.

Silver might be Tripp. He goes to UNR.

I'd say the $700 goes to the power mods. Your front bumper really isn't that bad. Or you could take that money and get your track permit with me at RFR when the weather clears up

Hey mate! Thats me (silver one). I see your car in the garage quite often, but I actually park in the green lot just north of the garage. When do you have classes?

It seems its unanimous for power mods so far

Hee- When again does the track season start and how much for the permit? I'm only going to be taking 2 classes this summer, so ill be working a good bit, so I could probably afford it then. Ya'll need to let me detail for ya so i can afford to do this stuff

Like some people say, the best mod is the driver mod. The track is open year-round as long as the weather's good. Their next scheduled permit class is Feb 9 and it's $375.

I'll have some more detailing work for you soon.

Sounds good man! Let me know. I got the polishes that work on Benz's clear coat too, so if its gotten swirled than I can fix them no problem. Also with the polisher I'll need more time (around 5-6 hours for a full job) so if you need me to I could probably head to your work and do it on a Friday or something. How far away is your work?
