Incoming: Another GT700 Pictorial...

Still can't post any pix so here's the project page:
http://www.sharkwerks.com/galleries/...96TT_X50_GT700

I'm catching up guys and I promised the owner to get this page up (the Canadian GT700 is next lol) but I figured I'd show you guys a few things that go on during the process. The funny thing about the bay area GT700 is that the owner has a brother who also has a GT700 although he's now obviously going to spank his *** some by going up to the GT800 We had his car ready here for the motor build.

Yes we're crazy on 6speed. We really are...

Heh I know we are... but no more so than you folks We like to take a week-10-days to get it done. Thing is when people do the GT700 they usually want other bits and pieces as well so we take a week at least. That way we can properly test it, add suspension and/or brakes etc...

Alex we first need to change the plugs:P Then we need to bump it to stage II. Then IF you get bored (and I doubt you will), then you can go GT700. First you have to promise to keep the car for at LEAST 2 years
