Lorenzo TB and SRT4 and Black Wheels - 56k Danger!

Post by kc2005ptgt » Thu Jul 13, 2006 4:36 pm

Ok, I post pictures all the time, so I decided to do one more little set. Here is my three latest mods, which you all have already seen the wheels, but look at them again!!!!

I was really freaked out about drilling into my trunk - so many thoughts went through my head, I was just so nervous (never messed with the body of ANY car of mine before). It ended up being the easiest install I have done so far. Took less than five minutes, and it is sealed from water leaks (checked later on that afternoon, sho-nuff!!). The TB on the other hand pissed me off, because the way the Lorenzo is made, it has a lip that causes the coupler to NOT slip on easy, so I had to buy a new one (I also tore my old one :(). It goes from 2.5" on the CAI piping to 2.75" on the TB, and now fits like a dream. I broke 4 nails (I know, sounds girly, but that freaking hurts!!!) in the process, cut my eyeball-cornea, breathed in half a gallon of paint spray, and busted my knuckles doing all these. But, after one ER visit, a few Vicadin, and some eye drops, I am all good to go!!!

I can't wait to get a throttle body

I think an SXT wing would of looked better buts that just my 2 cents. But then again I am not a fan of wings on fwd cars. What happened to your high-output fuel injector cover? Notice any difference with the throttle body? Any codes?

Looks clean as always man! :biggthumpup:

It looks good, but could definitely use a lowering...try finding an SRT rear bumper too, I think that would really help round out the look of your car...

I've never been a fan of the SRT wing, but I think the SXT wing would look better.

How do you like the TB? I have to say it's one of my fave mods to date.

And I really like the black wheels.

Eh... I'd say lose the spoiler for an SXT style one, everything else looks good though and will look a lot better once you lower that bad boy!

Yah, yah, yah - springs are coming - soon. I am getting some 98 r/t springs from the other org. I do nto likethe shorty spoiler of the sxt, which is why I went srt4. Wanted one since I saw them on the brand new 03 srt4 sitting in the lot next to mine when I bought it. :D Anyway, I get a lot of looks now (way more than before) and my wife loves it, as does my son :) that's all the matters :P ;) :rofl:

My eye is getting better, almost healed, but still painful. I got vicodin though :twisted: which I am on right now. So I am a bit loopy!!!! :Whee!!!: :rofl:

Also, where do you get black nuts from?? I mean lug nuts, you sickos.

Looking good man. Throttle body is very nice. If you want to get rid of that ugly hose connector that is capped off, just go to a hardware store and they'll have a nice little bolt thing to block the hole. I've never understood why that thing is there in the first place. Here's a pic of what I'm talking about.

I almost did go gunmetal. But I am going for black and red on my car (even replaced that faux carbon fiber center dash bezel with flat black). I still have one more exterior mod before I mellow out on the exterior - I got away from my plan of going all go and no show. But, meh, whatever, it looks good still, so I will focus on the engine after I get the r/t springs. They do lower right? I heard and read it somewhere that they do like a 1.25-1.5 drop. ??
