this one's not bad, but the GK bumper and fake skirts doesn't cut it for me. i don't think new tiburons should ever be mixed with ours. i also think the wheels are too far out. otherwise the engine is sick. M_j's tiburon is the best.

That is DEFINITELY one bad a$$ Tib, really REALLY nice; I don't know if it is THE NICEST but it is one of them, and it has in it's favor that it's a RD1.... cool.gif

I agree; those wheels crossed the line... they are too wide and the tires look streteched, if they were a tad less wide like maybe half an inch or a whole inch; the tire would seat more squared on the rim and also it would stick outter less... it still is sweet, but that's my impression in the appeareance field.
M-J's is superb Tib.

No. Its kind of a cut and paste deal as mentioned. You chop off the lower halves and mold it.

i like it alot, but not even close to the best tib ever..

i like the side skirt add-ons, give it and OEM, low profile look.. i always love that on cars..

the top mount turbo idea, i like.. would work better with a scoop though. theres NO problem with the top mount turbo tho.. the gravity flow would be even better for the return line in that position.

with the turbo up high like that, its higher than the block, which would make the turbo hotter than the position its at.

the GK II front has grown far away from me, i liked it at first, but it just doesn't mesh with our cars IMO.
