Yeah the links seem to have broken. I was reorganizing my photobucket. Fixed now.

Yes I do. I am currently researching what one to go with. Im looking at a weapon R secret weapon or dragon intake... but I don't like the style that much, I am more of a fan of the simple look. The intakes for the V6 don't even have a bend in them, I don't understand why they have to be more then the 4cyl ones. I was also looking at the injen intakes too. Any suggestions? There are ones on ebay that look the same as the weapon r ones only with a crappy filter, so I might just go that route and get a decent filter for it.

Thanks, I took about 40 different pics from different angles, but the lighting sucked and those were the only two i could really recover. The sun was already down. Il take some better ones when I catch the sunset next time. Probably do that sometime this week. I love taking pictures of this car, its so photogenic.

Its funny, most of my friends I have shown that too said it looks like a ad/commercial pic.

Hopefully the next photoshoot will include my friends lude. It was really dirty today so we didn't take it with us. I they would look good together. His is black.

BTW 99, yours is pretty nice too! Hopefully il get mine tinted this week. Nice to see someone else with a MT too, there pretty rare.

I really need to polish up my headlights.

From what I've read the 4 cyl 5sfe engine don't have a maf? or something along those lines so it's a lot easier to build it cause of that.
are avalons supposed to be this fast?

That makes sense actually, because thats missing from the intake for the 4cyl.

A friend of mine is going to paint and reclear them. I thought it would look like crap, but he did his prelude rims and they actually look really good. Cant really make mine look any worse, they are in pretty crappy shape, the coating is all off them and there corroded from neglect.

I might pick up a set of Eniki RZ-5's from a friend in the future.
