Before it got lowered, debadged , new pipes, new front bumper, blacked out turning signals, new lights.
After
I'm happy with it
I love the pipes the most, %$*$ sounds like some Ferarri type stuff

Why so? I'd take an IS-F over an M5 or CL AMG anyday. Granted they may be more luxurious, the IS-F just looks so much more aggressive.
Then again, you woudnt go wrong with either 3.
Word to son that said its depressing to see these whips, I dont even want to post mine.

My kind of thread!!
Nice rides everyone...
I've already posted these pics in the Post your ride thread but I'll add some recent ones of a head swap I did along with changing the roller rockers,valve springs, motor mounts/****** mount, deleting the AC, painting my valve covers and other little things
.
Stock E7 heads on car:
Down to the block:
New GT40 heads with 1.7 Crane Roller Rockers and Trickflow Spring Kit:
On the block:
Lower intake and stock valve-covers back on:
Painted valve-covers (left is done, right has primer):
Complete picture minus 75mm Pro-M mass air and 24lb injectors I recently put on:
Here's everything I have done to it:
Tremec 3550 5-speed,
Spec stage 2 clutch,
Ford Racing Alum. Driveshaft,
SteedaTri-Ax shifter,
3.73 gears in rear-end,
no Smog Pump,
65mmThrottle Body,
Paxton adjustable FuelPressureRegulator,
BBK long tubes,
BBK h-pipe w/o cats,
Edelbrock exhaust,
taurus electric-fan,
flex-a-lite VariableSpeedController,
50/50 lakewood shocks
70/30 lakewood struts,
LowerControlArms,
Eibach drag launch spring kit with airbag,
FordRacing GT40 upper/lower intake manifold,
Ford Racing GT40 heads with upgraded Trickflow Spring kit and 1.7 Crane Roller Rockers
75 mm Pro-M mass-air
24lb FordRacing injectors
Weld Racing wheels
Smoked taillights
Maximum Motorsports Full-Length Sub-Frame connectors welded on
Polyurethane motor mounts and ****** mount
Ran a 13.4 before the heads/valvesprings/roller rockers/mass-air/injectors/full suspension/full exhaust/upper and lower intake... Should be a mid to low 12second car all day. Made 263hp and 306 torque to the wheels on the dyno... I have a friend who made 256hp and 299torque and ran a 12.5 with a GT (heaviercar). Can't wait to hit the track up this year

i've always wanted to get into building up an old school like that. but i have no idea what expenses for a project like that are compared to buying bolt onparts for a japanese car.
i find myself on craigslist from time to time looking for older cars to buy as a project, but i have no idea where to start and what to look for
