Enough talking time to do more work if imma complete this thing..Only thing I hate is I have to use the 200r4 cause nothing else can handle the tq it will make or thats what all the tranny shops are saying cause I wanted to have a 5 speed for more fun...

The truck will be Flat black all the way with the taillights painted to match the truck...

chrome wheels or black with chrome lip aint decided yet....(18s to 24s) havent decided yet...(traction is going to be the reason for the huge wheels)

SSBC Big Brake kit with Calipers painted kawisaki green and the Front control arms and bridge also done the same way...

Maybe a Cowl induction hood to clear the turbo on top since the GN turbo is a top mount...

Suicide doors...

Oh yea and lots of motor mods....

Later on down the road a chop top maybe.....

your actual suspension set up has just as much to do with traction as wheel size, when you're dealing with alot of power.

very true a four link set up properly will hook better than other set ups so planning ahead will save problems later
