my, my, how she's changed

digging through my comp and found some old pics of my car back when i first got her. decided to make a thread to show how she's changed over time (quite bored? you bet...) enjoy

only mods back then were aem cai, cleared headlights, meshed grill(yes i went through the phase...), eibach pro kits, and hks axle backs





right after i got my rims...



and how she looks now...mods in sig





next (and final) major change will be ronjon's kit and then i'm done (with the exception of some more engine work )

she's been good to me...

I agree with All Mine. Never have I heard of any tranny problems w/ the 6-speed.

Regardless, if most of us had the choice, we would've chosen the 6-speed over the auto, but you chose an auto. The auto which has been notorious for having tranny problems, over a 6-speed.

yeah i know, at the time i didnt know anything about the cl's, now i would of chosen the 6-speed over the auto, like you said, now i dont know of any 6-speeds with tranny probs, i guess thats the price you pay not doing yor homework, because i would love to trade mine in for the 6-speed, i dont know, it just didnt seem right when i test drove it

Me too. I'll probably have everything installed and done by the beginning of summer. We should get together for a photoshoot if you got your kit on @ that time too.
