RE: December Voting!!!
nope. Always worked fine.
LOL i always doubted it. Im thinkin that the previous owner must have had other things on the car at the time.. and then taken them off. My guess is around 250hp to be honest.

On A side note I have to re give sebba some props on how clean his engine really is because I must say that is the second cleanest I have seen on the site for car engine bays... the first cleanest we all know whos that is

Your ride is almost new. It is easy to show an almost new cars engine and call it clean.

RE: December Voting!!!
All due respect but if it were a car show Sebba would win. The 2G is a more well rounded ride. All that Silvercoupe has is a swap. And from the pics you had someone else do it.
Judging on a scale from 1-5
Silvercoupe
Exterior 1
Engine/Performance 4 Great swap but really isn't show quality. Designed for performance.
Interior 2 Assuming it is stock except for guage cluster swap and guages. No pics to support otherwise
Sound 1 No pics to suppport otherwise
Total 8 points
Sebba
Exterior 3-No points added or deducted for vinyl
Engine/performance 2
Interior 2 Guages, Carbon Fiber, Red paint brings the presentation of the interior down.
Sound 2 Looks like a flip out DVD which would score higher. No other supporting pics to bring up the score.
Total 9 points
Shreff99 has no gallery to judge

I wouldn't eat an egg cooked on that exhaust manifold.

I have an open hood vent, thats right it reguires like a 3 hour detail to get as clean as it is in those pics. whoop di do I have a stock manifold so what?? It aint dirty to bad they are just that color. I would never want my motor to look like that. It is a cluttered mess. Clean parts but my god got a good plumber? the IC piping and intake alone could rap around the whole car

RE: December Voting!!!
Yup, my engine bay could use some cleaning. I'm not too worried about it though, it's my daily driver...rain and heat on it daily. The outside shell can be wetsanded, washed, and waxed and two minutes later it's either dusty or it's already got water drops on it. Is it worth it to me to keep my DD at show quality? Nope. It's not for show, it's for go, hence the stock body...When the world gives me a perfect day of dry, no wind blowing around, no rain, or bugs, and when my motor stops making heat, is the day that my car will be totally spot free, until then, it's my DD and it will look like a DD
. No, not rusted and falling apart panels, or paint peeling off, just dusty with dead bugs on the nose
I'm too old to make a car for show. There's enough of them driving around to do that as it is. Plus, I bet the cars with more "look at me" parts, get just that from cops too. Not me....Total sleeper

I was just stating that you didn't build the motor for show. A show motor would have a polished head, polished and chromed motor mounts, brackets etc.
Your build was for performance and it kicks ***. I just cannot give you a 5 without any hours spent grinding and polishing for show. What would you give the guy that show up with a similar swap that put 600 hrs into polishing?
