Aw... its a 1993 s2000... isn't that obvious? ;P
I'm still on the fence about the vents... other stuff first and I'll revisit them.

M2... I want on track too... I just can't find the time to get the car ready. We close on a house on the 28th... so I've been busy with all that crap. Once I have a garage... I should be able to crush the last few things.

Split, I'm in TN, but my parents are up in Northern IL. Please tell me I can come see this car sometime when i'm visiting IL! If I had the resources and time, that's more or less what I envisioned for my '92

Lol, promise =0P. They're up in McHenry county...I'm thinking about coming up there ~thanksgiving or so....we'll see.
Braineack, About the A/C hole that you mentioned back on page 2.....That kind of has me concerned. See, I removed my A/C and bracketry, oh, 3 months ago or so, and have been driving the hell out of the car since then....what precisely does that 'hole' go to?

Cost... 1500 for car (w/hardtop
)... then lots of used parts... few new parts and lots of labor/love. Beyond that... who knows... the goal was below 5k for the entire build, I'm fairly certain I'm well below that.The bumper was just to get more flow, I had 0 cooling issues so far... but all I've done is drive it around town and on the highway. The entire cooling format of this car is preventative...

This update is just for you
I was paced for a mile or so at 12:30am coming home from doing the exhaust last night. He ran my plates I suspect, then went merrily on his way.
Mind you... this was after i hacked more from the rear bumper, added a center exit exhaust... and was rolling 1/4 mile behind a truck doing 60 in a inactive work zone.
