IMPRESSIONS
I just wanted to write about my initial impressions of my car after owning it for 7 years now with 113,XXX miles on my car. I just replaced my timing belt and water bump. Basic maintenance, right? lol, anyways well I thought this weekend was as good as a time to install the DC Headers and Ralco Pulley's I have had for over a year, lol yeah I know that was a long time holding on to the parts.

Anyways, I was driving the car around and I really didn't have any good places to really let it loose. I finally found a place and...... OMG.... this car still feels so good to me. Dirty I know... lol

I was impressed with how it accelerated. I was shocked at how much my car has changed in driving response and handling, despite doing only minor mods to it. I don't feel like I have done anything overly excessive but my car now has the ability to hang with the best of them and look like a family sedan at the same time. hehe

Thanks for taking the time to read this and responding! Now I can get groceries 2 times faster! muhahahah

Some Quick Pics if you haven't seen my car before:

man your car is so clean. i think once you get a lip kit it would complete the car.

Thanks man, I am probably going to be looking at an exhaust (if I could ever find a decent one) and lip kit as my final modifications. If the tranny goes out then I might consider a 6-speed swap.

BTW, I took the yellow film off my fogs and now I am just running 3500K HID fogs.

Very clean car man!!! If you got the lipkit I tihnk it would take your car to the next level and u would love it even mroe. I know what you mean when you say you feel the power now. I got my headers/crank pully/hfc/exhaust/im spacer/tb&im gaskets instaled all at once and it went in a tl-s and came out a whole new car. Good luck with your car!!!

Thank you Vman159, n1njai, 02type-s, jaMezBOI.

jaMezBOI, I felt I should've had a TL-WoW after the headers and pulley upgrade, on top of everything else obviously, lol. I am riding in WINTERMODE too!
