Bagged means that his suspension setup stands on "air bags" that he can adjust has he wants.

Thanks Larry, I'm still looking for rims right now, no luck yet.

I've been dying to get an internet connection since you texted me with a pic on friday. I'm glad you decided to post it up to the forum.

The car is awesome!! It's soooo much better in person. (Thanks for swinging by my house to show me the progress. Next time, I'll crawl under to see the exhaust. The 0 degree weather trumped checking out the ride that evening. LOL.

Mike has gone through a great deal of planning, negotiating and forging ahead to come up with new groundbreaking modifications for the Gen2. This is not to be taken lightly. No companies are out there making parts for this car. This is all custom.

At some point, I'd like to see ya publish what you've done in details. (Especially the exhaust. I'm glad to help on that. You got to finish the project I never got off the ground.)

The rear lip is nothing short of gorgeous. It worked out sooo much better for the exhaust than than a modified Gen2 SE Sport would have. (A major hold up that stopped me going forward with the dual exhaust. )

Congrats again. You deserve some mad props.

Thank you Brian, like I said before, the dual exhaust project would not have been done this way if it wasn't for you.

I've been really busy w/ the Infinity QX56 and will try to wash the car and take some pics as soon as we get a nice weekend.

But anyway I showed him pics of your car and he wants to know your setup. He said if you want he can make it were your car's kit touches the ground. He did it to his buddy's grand prix and his ford ranger lays frame. He does very good work! I wish you would have told me cause he and I could have helped you out Keep me posted and we need to get a meet started this spring because I may not be in cincy much longer. LOL the way my job hunt seems to be going I may have to move out to Cali.

Hey bro,

Yup, the air bag suspension was always on my to do list, just had to find the right shop to do it was always the problem. We definitely need to have a meet, I'm up in the Cincy area about once every two months at Kenwood mall. I'll let you know the next time I'm in the area.

Mike,

Despite all my PREFERENCE to have SINGLE exhaust as a general rule... (weight, etc...), your setup REALLY makes one THINK about going dual!

You need to post some SOUND CLIPS dude! I wanna HEAR the dual setup please! :wink:

(Of COURSE... need more PICS!)

How about you just hear it in person? ***ROAD TRIP to KY*** perhaps you and Tact can drop by and we'll have a mini meet. I can definitely get it set up if anyone else is interested. Maybe middle of this month.

I'll try to get the sound clip and more pics, but it looks like were gonna get snow on Saturday, so I may not be able to take any pics. I'll do my best.

uh... having done a couple motorcycle projects IN the living room in the past... one about the time I was just married, I can GUARANTEE the wife won't mind at all....... PSYCHE!

(I think I brought the second bike in BEFORE we were married... and then AFTER... the bike somehow went OUT and NEVER came back inside again... :-?

)

....now we just have a TRICYCLE and a (rocking) HORSE, BOUNCY CHAIR, basket ball hoop, wagon, and SWING in the living room... along with the four children that seems to come along with that stuff... (motorcycles won't likely EVER be INSIDE my house again...)

Yeah... just WHEEL THAT BAD BOY INTO YOUR HOUSE, dude! :wink:

(YOUR car is nicer than my home... I'D put it in MY house... just to SPICE UP THE HOUSE! HA HA HA!)
