The difference is very noticeable. Considering the 94 is basically stock besides an intake and mildly ported LIM, it'* not THAT quick. While it runs with no KR, it feels doggy sometimes. The 03 just feels so much quicker all throughout the power band. It'* much smoother, and rides much nicer too.

I still wish I could afford to keep the 94 too. It would be nice to keep two Bonnes. But I could use some extra money to pay off some debt and get the 03 a few maintenance-related items.

Jim, I forgot what your offer was... lol Oh wait I remember. I love the 20 spokes. They'd be nice for winter, but I already made a commitment on winter rims already.

Did you check the 194'* in the corner of your tail lights yet? I can see your passenger side works....

I haven't done anything. This weather sucks. I pulled one tail because I want to clear them today, then it started to pour out. So I'm inside with nothing to do. :(

Hopefully it clears up. Tomorrow better be nice outside.

Believe me I noticed. But unless it is only $500 or so, I am outta luck.
I will have another one someday though.

I wish I could keep both though. I'll only have two for a short time most likely.

I cleared the tails on the 03 today. I'm not extremely happy with how they turned out (you can see the cut marks through the lenses, and the cuts weren't all very clean). I will seal them tomorrow and take pics. I may just get some GXP tails eventually.

The swoopies should be swapped as well if the weather permits.

Swoopies are here to stay! :P

I put the swoopies on today. I had a feeling I'd like them better, and I do. Overall, they just make the car look so much better. They make the car appear lower, they are more aggressive looking (and more unique as I've always stated). The swoops also shine a lot more since the 5-spokes are not smooth on the inside of the spokes (rough surface, brake dust sticks to it more also).

I also did red calipers, and cleared the tails.

It'* only been 10 days since I bought it and it looks a LOT better!










Anyone see something familiar in the background?
