performancewise, that shit is hot to death. Looks wise it looks pretty good too, but IMHO, you should ditch the versus kit for a ronjon kit, drop it, then get some 18's. The versus kit looks like it will scrape if you lowered the car, and the RJ kit looks cleaner

I'm a huge fan of ronjon kit and his devotions, wish I did'nt miss the boat on his 3piece a while back. The versus kit for me has been I like it one day and hate it the next. The sides and rear look ok, but nothing can compare to ronjon's design.

Unfortunatley no, I bought those from a member a while back, goes good on the inside, just needs the inside door trim to polish it up.

I've got close to 8k in it. Saved a bunch by installing it myself. Wish more of you guys would take the leap, it's a great bang for the buck.


Thanks for all the props, it's come a long way from the days it was in allmotors car. When I drive it, I drive it hard, it's very intoxicating to here the turbo spool up and the enginve rev as quick as it does. The thing seems to rev twice as fast as a stock motor. Torque steer when all ponies are running is quite evident, I just don't go around corners wot, it will get away from you no matter how good you may think you are.

In a straight line, it will punish most cars, had my ass handed to me on a couple occasions, a porshe who literally left me like I was standing still, and a late model cobra, but not by much. I think he was on the juice and I was only boosting 6psi because of lower octane fuel I was running that night. Pissed me off I wasn't prepared. I will be for now on though. Cheers!

Nice pics of your former CL.

Now I want carbon fiber in my interior.


FYI: I know I'm bumping old threads but...

I've ran out of threads to comment on so I'm visiting old threads that were before my time.
