    haha yea no one complains about sitting in the back lol. really loving this car its been great fun to drive other then the amount of gas it goes thru. just wish it was 5 speed.

    bluegtp91 i am reading threw your sig link. lots of interesting stuff going on there. interested in doing the whole engine mount flip thing. one question tho... doing that do i need to brace the engine? or just undo one at a time thats fine? haha dont want something falling or trouble if i attempt it.

    Yes one at a time is the best way. I did it and highly recommend soaking the corners of the mount with WD40 so that it rotates easier and you don't risk tearing the mount up. Otherwise its easy as pie.

    As far as the back seats go, I like the seats, but the console needs to be finished... looks like crap as it sits

    yea the center part was just sitting there before. went and bolted it down. not sure what i gonna do with it i agree it looks like ass right now. but its not the first thing on my list of things to do really. but i think i gonna just do cup holders in there and some fiberglass over the rest.

    just noticed that the engine mounts are already flipped so i dont gotta do that. everything i read about to do is already done on the damn car bahh i wana try doing some stuff lol

    also found out this thing has xenon light balast behind the head lights so i guess i gotta just get some bulbs and plug them in hmm. thats something i can do wen i get some cash
