Haha yea it was a show car for the longest time. Its also a pilot 02 VIII. Originally didn't have a title or anything.

And yes intake is most definitely custom. GM of Full-Race had it made at his shop along with the exhaust. Stock ECU with much much tweaking. Tephra-mod FTW

I have to go back to Phoenix in a couple weeks to pick up a lot more stuff (set of rims/tires, cf hood, spoiler, etc) so that'll be taken care of. Oh, also have a Sparco harness bar in now too.

Indeed! Easy to throw one back on.

Careful with that harness bar. I did research (after Robert told me about it) and it's pretty unsafe to have that bar in there.. Yea Carlos, you're unsafe with your bar and 4 point.

Unsafe how? The bar stiffens up the chassis. I know if you actually have the harnesses in, then in a roll-over with no cage you're ****ed. Roof smooshes you since they don't allow you to bend over like OEM seatbelts

I get both sets :]. First 2 pics were from a photoshoot for those rims/tires so I get those as part of the deal. Have to go Phoenix to pick up the 18's with yellow outline.

I thought the bar was the issue because if you roll over, the seat is not able to fall down and back, as the bar is in the way.. and you get crushed.

You have a point.. I'm worried about your harnesses when I'm riding a vehicle with no roof or doors.. or hood... or trunk..
