its the gonna be the bob sharp race car look alike, with n/a engine, and be really really fast. im hoping 250 rwhp for it, and 8500rpm redline, and just cause it looks cool, doesnt mean it wont get bagged on at the raodcourse here in town. the pic of the chassis are in bleachs canada trip linky in the zdriver announcement section, for those who have not viewed, it a red t-top right now, but it will get a slicktop conversion

I really don't have that many "mods" so to speak.

Most of the insane amount of money I have put into this car has been spent on restoration, beautification and future reliability.

The motor itself is bone stock internally.

I have a CAI
Custom 2.5" exhaust from the head back
upgraded brake system w/slotted rotors
18" wheels and tires
Interior blacked out with red trim
headlight covers/upgraded headlights


That's really about it...

Everything else has bene taking it to the body shop a thousand times to fix somebody elses screw ups or replacing parts like all the smog stuff, injectors, dizzy, fuel system... stuff like that...

As far as I have seen, the P99 is identical to the p90a.

I posted it to see if anybody else had seen one.

I actually prefer the p90 mechanical anyway.
