dansc90 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I had 233 for 2 years but i drive 100+ miles a day for work, so i drove my other car that way i didnt kill the spec b and after awhile it turned into a $600 a month lawn ornament. I loved the car to death but i figure it was time to let someone else enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwakgp Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Only takes me about 5 minutes to remove the front lip with the hardware I used. I love the finishing look the lip gives the lines of the car - so much I have a winter lip I use since I feel the car looks naked without it It definitely looks better, I wonder how well it would hold up to shoveling snow all winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJ25subie05 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 add #41 back to the list. previous owner was Schonaz. i bought it from the auction and brought it back to life. no pictures yet not done modding it any body have any stock spec b wheels painted gold? or any awesome color? the stock look is boring me. but not here to thread jack if so please pm me a link. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Catalyst. Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Unfortunately, my #41 is totaled. It doesn't look all that bad, but some extensive engine damage did it in. Some dude blew threw a stop sign and I tboned him. If you're interested in finding the car, I can put in you in touch with my insurance company. Let me know. now why would #41 be saying RIP??? haha thats funny because its going to be resting finished in my garage on monday.Glad to hear it's being brought back from being through a wreck. Looking forward to post fix pictures. Just a page back shows the accident photos from Shonaz. My spec.B [#163] Project Thread with Pictures Get CryoTuned!

.Catalyst. Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 It definitely looks better, I wonder how well it would hold up to shoveling snow all winter I had a lip on last winter and it survived just fine NRW is the proud owner of it now (had a couple more made for me).

.Catalyst. Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I haven't decided yet. May go with the color of my Volk's I had done (see avatar - "speedway black"), or possibly do some shade of silver that would be like a color match to TSM.

spc2125 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Dunno if he will say but curious how much he paid for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJ25subie05 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 sorry, but id rather not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spc2125 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 sorry, but id rather not. Thats fine. Im just thinking of numbers and how if the insurance company deemed it totalled... you would havr had to pay the price at auction plus the cost to repair... unkess you know an auto body shop who is a friend or something. But who cares!!! Spec b brought back from thr deadd !!!! And they said it would never happen... pshh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJ25subie05 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) the body shop is my friend he is the best painter i know around these parts. i know people all over the east coast near by come down to have them paint there cars. most S2k's because he did so much to his people loved it. it is a pricey car with a salvage title, but i don't care i plan on modding this thing down the road making it more enjoyable, hopefully build the motor myself once i get some cash flow so i can make some boost without any issues if i had an accesport right now id be stage 2 already. but I'm probably going to go with open source for the time being. picking it up today, so stay tuned for some pictures if the weather is nice.

.Catalyst. Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 if i had an accesport right now id be stage 2 already. but I'm probably going to go with open source for the time being. I prefer OS tuning and like the logging aspects with RomRaider. I went with the Tactrix cable so I can log w/o a laptop. Only real benefit with the AP I see is that you can load maps slightly faster. With 05 and 06, you still have to plug in the green test mode connectors so it's not that much more time to load maps via a laptop/netbook. I have a tuning netbook I use and have the process down to where I don't see it as an issue when I go to E85 and pump tunes with stage 3. picking it up today, so stay tuned for some pictures if the weather is nice.Looking forward to the "after" pics!
