Trust me, as bad as the DOHC's are the SOHC's are even worse. I know its hard to believe, but its true. If I never work on another low-end GM product again I'll be a happy man. They are NOT mechanics cars.

I'm going to say this again.. dude you need bigger wheels, to fill in those gaps and as far as the body kit, as me and Travis would say "dude he has the shogun sensai ninja kombat body kit" ;)

I have much respect that you did all your body work, and completed your HMT kit yourself. Glad to have you apart of the HMT team, because 95% of us are all honda guys and we definatly need some more users like you :)

Jeff,

Bigger wheels equal more rotating mass so I'll pass on that. I need to lower the car and that should get rid of some of that hideous wheel gap. Then again I scrape on everything already.

Thanks again for the credit/respect. I enjoy this site far more than any other to say the least.

Jeff if you see this please PM me about the projects page, I went to put it together last night and was not sure if i needed to link the photos from a website or how you wanted them...or what size.

Let me know, I'd like to be part of the projects page now that I have time to do a write-up again.

damn thats the only sunfire i would drive.. you should do something with the rear end with those tail lights, still looks like a sunfire from the back, but overall very badass and non rice.

haha my winter truck has 70k on it and my rex has 240k.. and the truck is in worse shape than the rex.

There is a thin line between rice and nice.

That hood is badass and so is the intercooler. It seems like you can't do anything in the looks department today that isn't considered rice.
