Those wheels are a major pain the @ss, I always hated cleaning them. That's why I got a new set of eagles on there for the summer. But I found that if you use seom wheel cleaner and a brillo pad and very very gently rub they'll eventually come clean. You gotta be very careful cause if you rub too hard the paint will come off of the wheels. Also, I need to get mine repainted/powdercoated cause mine are fading a bit. And my driver's seat is torn and is continuing to get worse...it sucks big time. Also, its funny you got SLOW TA on your plates....I got RARE TA on mine lol. Although mine doesnt have alot done to it either, just the small stuff (160 thermo, lt4KM, fan switch,airfoil) and full exhaust (Mac mid's with y into Borla catback and running open flowtech 3" cutout). I replaced my opti twice already and now Im running the Delteq system...so far no problems. Nice TA ya got there man, I'll hit ya up on AIM sometime my sn is Cas0484...go figure

161k. Still runs like a champ and holds EXCELLENT oil pressure. It was babied for most of it's life, owned by women and then a couple that drove it 2k in 3 years.

The engine/tranny will be replaced soon, I'm picking up a new set of heads in a few days in fact.

Thanks for the tip cas, I'll try the brillo pad idea!

And I buy my cars to drive the hell out of them!

I don't think so man....

The other dude's got an auto 5.0. If Steve had the 230 HP 305 TPI with T5 and posi, I'd bet he'd take him without TOO much effort.

Amen there! I hate people who buy nice cars to lock them in the garage and never use them for what they were made. Cars are for driving no matter how nice they are. whats the point of owning a car and not driving it? good job man and i agree 100%
