Welcome to the Garage!!

I also love the wheels. I think they look great on the boxcar.

Got any pics of the new engine?

I like it, looks great.

What exactly is done to the engine to make that power?

I also like the rims, would look hot a bit lower. :)

No pics of the new engine yet. Want to tart it up a bit first.

The new engine is based on an EL motor.
Its got new pistons, head's been played with a bit, Crow Cam thats fairly big (286 Dur, .5054 lift. i dont understand cam talk), Broadband Manifold, Pacemaker Comps & a EMS Stinger to run it.

Looks hot, but the steering wheel looks worse than stock, and you lose the cruise buttons!

LTD rims will make people jealous though.

I don't need cruise control so doesnt make a difference to me.

Thanks for the comments.

You can still have cruise control with an aftermarket wheel. I have done it along with a couple of others.

Details are in my EB2 GLi thread in my sig.

Looks very clean. I like the caps too
The flat bottom steering wheel looks good but I'd have chosen a different colour
