Thanks for all the love!

oneday, the harnesses are long gone; after realizing how bad they were mounted to the ceiling, I mounted them to the sturdy bar under the back seats, but then eventually took them out entirely. The stock seatbelts do just fine for what we put this thing through. Thanks for the advice though!

A couple additions in the last week; check it!

I definitely see your tC once in a while in the most random locations. I live in Hillcrest off Front street by the hospital and I swear I saw your car the other day! Brings a grin to my face. Haha. Good job Wes!

Just stumbled onto this thread. At first glance I thought it was dumb, but after reading all the pages I love it. You took the Dare to Be Different to a whole new level my friend

Default If you ever jump your Tc, consider this

Something that has been used by real off-road enthusiast. It helps to prevent damage to expensive struts/shocks and to limit over-flexing of suspension.
Something that I'm prepping my xA for this coming September.
The front will be a challenge.
Take a gander at what i've been cooking.

Thanks! Yep, stock ride hide, but with the wheels wells bashed in, fenders cut, and bigass a/t tires on 15x8 rims.

Why not? Didn't really need it. Makes running wires and such easier too!

Thanks for the love, fellas! Sorry I haven't updated the thread in a while; been busy with school and such. But I had some extra cash laying around and a crazy idea in my head, so... the anti-aircraft gun is back! Except this time I had it professionally welded... and no retarded triple-barrel boso gatling gun shenanigans.

The car is now officially submersible to 4.8 ft!

I'm trying to decide if I should paint the heat wrap or not...









I had dualtone put in a performance muffler that cut the sound waaaaay down. The car is actually very quiet when you drive it easy, but if you lay down WOT the intake roars like crazy (plus it's right above your head while you're driving. feelsgoodman.jpg)
