    Truck looks good.. paint is a bit too extreme. Just the blue alone would be pimp. What you got as far as go fast?

    I was going to stay with the blue.. Blue is my favorite color. Its actually very close to my GTI. It currently has headers, no cats, Aero stinger bullet muffler, throttle body spacer and a different throttle body. I want an ls2 with heads and cam running on FAST and I would be happy. I have a built tranny in there, but when the rear end gave out, it hurt the tranny. I have changed the rear end and will start on the body till after the holidays sometime. Then I will do what I can and when I can to get it where I want. Thank for the feedback!

    Which GTI do you have? The only one close to that color I can think of is the 20th An.

    Truck looks really good though. What is your goals going to be for the LS2 when you get it?

    I have an 86 gti that is painted the same color as the blue on the R32. I just want a head and cam package. I will want to use the truck as a daily and have more than stock. I dont know if I want a 9 sec truck yet though.

    When you said the blue was the same as your GTI--I was thinking R32 as well...
