I have those LED lights on my car too.
Yeah, they are a good buy.
Look like they are part of the car, unlike the strips some people buy.
Not really bright enough though, but ah well.

Will post all modifications later.
And just in case there is a few unbelieving trolls, here's the old one in the exact same place outside my house.

The two skylines appear to be in the same place. Paved driveway seems to match.
Sorry to bring this back up...
The day we got the Del Slow, complete with Utah plate(s) and in need of a powerwash. 5+ months ago.
Will get more when it gets home from work (with my dad.)
Comparing the two the European Saab has 3 less litres, but only produces 70 less bhp. 3 more litres and the Camaro only has the horsepower equivalent to a Suzuki Wagon R RR boost over the Saab.
Oh plus 2 more cylinders.
That's if you believe the factory LS1 hp/tq figuresThey're low 13 second cars all day long- high 12s on slicks aren't unheard of. It's bone stock now, but I'm getting my Kooks headers and true dual exhaust installed and dyno tuned on March 18. Can't wait! Then I'll do a 102mm intake or work on eliminating that nasty fender gap. Thing sits like a monster truck.
The HFV6 in the SAAB doesn't have a ton of aftermarket support in the States but with a simple tune, it can see figures like 320hp/390tq (at the flywheel) with the stock turbo for less than 5 minutes of your time. I am quite fond of the 9-3. Its passing power (overtaking) is impressive. Boost is addictive. Mine has 130k miles on it so I might look into a XWD 08-10 9-3 to replace it instead of modifying this one too much.
