I am sure he didn't post on here to be criticized on how he spent HIS money....damn guys, lay off. I'm sure if he wanted to go faster, he woulda spent it on go fast parts.
Anyways.... Looks Great so far, be sure to show more pictures when you get it done! I have been thinking of doing 5 lugs and brakes.

for real dog no point in goin fast if ya cant stop ..stock brakes suck lol technically that should be the way to go anyway brakes suspension then speed im-humble-o anyway : o)
oh btw does anyone think its worth goin to 4 wheel discs if you want to keep your 4 lugs ?

i remember telling a old guy who had a mustang that i wanted to go fast. he said thats great but i hope you can stop. stock brakes do suck. i just wish there were junkyard parts that you could get dual piston calipers then these cars would really stop

i have a set of lincoln calipers with stainless guides and stainless lines i took off that can go to someone. they helped it quite a bit with the stopping but i used the factory master cylinder and it made the pedal go a lot farther to the floor before it got brake. i'm going to do the same thing with my engine next: plan out what i want and buy it part by part. so this time next year i should have it faster also.

in that second pic, i hate how the fender doesn't flow smooth around the wheel. i wish they looked more like the bmw look. oh, mine does tha same thing, kinda flattens out on the top of the wheel
