Pics! Spring Break Nationals!
Hey gang, my first official show. I haven't been judged yet, but whatever happens, I am excited to be there and to anticipate. It was a huge amount of work and effort by many fine people...To the guys at Raw Brokerage, thanks to Dan Osypian, Fernando, Sean and Ricky. Special thanks to Dan for working late many nights to get my car done. He barely got sleep or family time for the last few weeks. To Fernando, great to get to know such a great guy...He stayed up all night with me on Thursday to get the car completed. I could not have. Finished without him.
To the guys at Car-O-Van, awesome work! You guys are not a simple insurance shop, but an awesome custom shop with a can do attitude. Special thanks to Chris, Sam, Manny, and "giggles". They worked tirelessly to ensure my paint and body work was completed on time. I would recommend them for any level of paint and body work needed.
Thanks also to Alian Bandamo at 360 Forged for the awesome work on my wheels and getting them finished in time. The wheels look sick!
Here are a few pics. Also, this thread is about to be finished after so many years and posts...Thanks CL and CL member for supporting my efforts to get this project to this point. I will get a clean and proper Dyno tune soon and ps that up. I will start a new reveal thread with high quality pics, but for now, enjoy these...

Sorry not intentional...
Sorry not intentional...
Thanks, yeah they look sick...To install the ClearCorners tails, the whole back end of the stereo has to come out. There simply was no time to get that done. They will be in for the next show.
Thanks so much, I could not have asked for Bette results!!!
So sorry, when I wrote that post, I started trying to get into PhotoBucket and could not, so I could not post them. I will post them up shortly.

Finally, the Results!
Before I post the results, I want to comment on a couple of things...I know a lot of you have followed my build for years! I know it took a very long time, but to me, it was a journey well with traveling. I know you all want the dyno sheet. I promise you wil get it. But not today. I changed out the fuel pumps from dual Walbro 255's to dual Denso Supra TT's. car needs a good time to tweak her up. Should be done in the next week or two.
I will start a new thread that will be the official reveal thread with high res pics, and finish it off with a video and the dyno sheet.
For now, as Forrest Gump said, " I'm tired". So I am going to retire for the night. Here's the rest of the pics for now...
BTW, the SBN was my first car show, and it is a National event. I attended with the hope of winning a trophy f some kind. When the judges first came by and asked me about my car, they informed me I would compete ith the "Big Boys ". The Ultimate Class right off the bat. I thought, " Gee whiz", the toughest class in the show! I decided to just take t in stride and put my best foot forward. I did not get judged until Sunday morning. When they reviewed my car, they were tough, and checked for the minutest specks of dust and dirt. My spirits dropped...Then, late Sunday afternoon, all the judges came back to my car and reviewed my car again...Here are the results:
1) SC400TT placed 1st place in the Ultimate Asian Class!
2) SC400TT WON BEST OF SHOW!
I was totally stoked! What a weekend!!!
Just to finish off this post, a great "Rear" shot to leave you all with...
