Default Showoff your engine bay...all 2genGS

Its been awhile, I know there's lots of new members that haven't seen the OG's engine bays, the new members need a chance to show off their engines as well.....Where you at Carbongs, BlueLex, RMMgs, MrExectutiv...and so on??

I like the PS reservoir location. You're giving me some ideas.

My old picks are played out. I'll try to shoot something soon, weather permitting.

They had to be seperated



Nothing special on the GS. Just an SRT intake/ECU. I have the engine cover modified to work with the SRT intake, but love the look without it.

Those pics look great.

But those windshield stickers need to go.
