Got the monster hood back from my paint guy. So I took some pics.

I just can't get over how unbelieveably sexy Baby G is!!!!!!! She has come a long way. Very inspiring for sure!

Quick update. Shes been on stands the past two weeks because I need to get the wheels painted. So in the meantime, I bought some tires, and waiting on spacers to come in the mail. Everytime I order something from MAPerformance, it needs to be dropped shipped and takes forever.

255/40/17 Federal 595 RSR. Was going to go with the hankook RS3 but other things came up and these had some good reviews online and comparable to the RS3 for $200+ less. I guess Ill be the test mule.



And a quick look at the new color for her shoes.



Literally just waiting to get them mounted and blanced and the spacers to arrive for BabyG to be back on her feet again.

Nice choice in color. Nice tires there.

Agree. Nice color combo..

These federals run BIG! 255/40/17 hankook rs3 needed an 8mm in the rear and maybe a 5mm up front to clear the coilover. Very close but cleared nonetheless. These weren't even close. All I had laying around were 25mm bolt on adapters so I guess I gotta figure out what I'm gonna do. Definitely sticking with the 25mm though I have an idea. Gotta raise her up another 1" or so and maybe fit some zg flares to the front and I may be able to pull the rear some more. Nothing crazy like Jareds set up but it should look good nonetheless.

Switched up the 25mm with some 15mm. Quick picture. Alignment was set, drives really good. Especially for a car that was deemed "totalled" two years ago.

Loving all of it!

Killer picture!

I'm still in love with the color! Are you still planning on putting flares on it?

[4g63lover]

Thanks guys!

Techno, honestly, probably not. after measuring everything, I cant bring myself to cut her up that much to make it work.

Love that shot!

I can't blame ya, and it looks aggressive enough without the flares! haha

[oakrdrs187]

Even with smaller spacers and no flares.... its perfect.


Goes to show you that sometimes Less is More.

Looks super clean, I see people have taken quite the liking on stanceworks too. I read the builds on there alot lol.

It looks like I didnt put up any of the drag strip videos.

Took her up to Great Lakes Dragway in Union grove, WI for a shakedown. Didnt launch her or shift it hard, just a nice little cruise down the strip and managed a best of 13.8 @ 113 mph. 60' was 2.6 seconds haha. If we can get the 60' down to a reasonable time, I reckon we can get high 12's out of her with this low boost setup. But honestly, I am quite happy for now. Im able to drive her to the track make a few passes and drive her home. I cant ask anymore from a car that met a pole two years ago. We'll enjoy her as a street car/weekend car for a couple of years then we'll see what she will do once we turn her up and I grow some balls to drive her hard. Next event I'm planning to do is a track event at a local road course. Just gotta find a date to go that corresponds with their instructor days.

On to the videos
