Hmmmm... The images need to be uploaded to a host first... Like photobucket.com or imageshack.us

Most likely a sony; DSC is what most sony cameras have as the begining of their model number.

well, you need to load them to the web somehow...either you have free space given to you by your cable provider in which case you will need an ftp program (i use wsftp coz its easy) to load them to your space; if you use a website to load your pages too, they have the upload software included but a lot of times you are limited in picture size

I've only had the car for like 6 months so I am slowly but surely hookin her up

The Antena is a zzapp and it was 28.00 shipped....They have Silver or Black
The Coilovers are Ip2 and they were 650 shipped

With the rims......They look alright to me since they weigh 18lbs and I would rather have that then spend mad cash for something that looks better and weighs the same or only a few lbs less

I wanna get some new rims but that will probably be the last thing I do
I gotta hook up the engine

Oh yeah here is my son learning how to drive

yeah our cars really do look like that and I have been embarrased since I have owned this car till now

Thanks guys for the great comments

Jacqueline got the same coilovers as mine but mine are non dampening adjustable and she got the 36 way's

If I wanted to I could take the car down till I was sitting on the concrete they have that much adjustability.....I think Jacqueline posted some picks on the random post of them opened and closed
At first they were really bouncy (you feel every single bump)...It only took about a day to settle and In about a month they should be just perfect.....I can still feel every bump but it is almost like riding on stock R/T suspension execpt that I have absolutely no body roll and it is so stiff that I can pop the 3 wheel on turns if I take them sharp enough
i also have 205/45R16 Nitto NeoGen's so they give me a little more of a drop and probably a little more grip.....next on my list is a new set of sways...not sure what company I am gonna go with....then on to the rear strut bar and then into the engine bay

Well i took it to a local shop here in town that a good friend of mine works at....

I dropped it off at 9am and he was done with the install by 10:30....but it took him till 1:30 to set the alingment because he used balancing scales for load transfer and everything else....

I checked periodicaly on it and helped a little....The install was really easy.....Just bolted right in with no problem what so ever.No L bracket bending no hole boring...Just poped the bearing and top hat on...bolted it down.....bolted it in and set the drop.....My drop is about 3 1/2 in front and about 4 in the back....It gave it an even drop

It is hella tight
the car is so stiff that when you get in you car dosent move at all....It takes all my might to push the car down

This is absolutely a must for anyone who wants a good track type ride at a really reasonable price

I was thinking about that combo....

I dont really care for a front upper bar.....Does make the engine clean but The rear is where it is at and the pwerks looks pretty tight

I wanna get the Hotchkiss but I dont wanna shell out the cash....Ehhh what the hell it is only money right
