how much lower are you wanting to go krayton! 18's are too big on s-chassis. Stock=killer! Has your rad hose ever kinked on you cuz it looks like its just about there! What kind of mods to engine have you done?

that engine pic is actually old, i never had a kink problem but the upper hose has been shortened.

krayton is just giving me a hard time because he can. thats ok tho, my car runs right now (just kidding bro, love ya)

i dont have many engine mods, the mines ecu is the big one. everything else is secondary

i was somwhat inspired by your thread here. i had some guy local do a REALLY QUICK pchop to get an idea of what my car will look like in the spring. i have a lead on the JDM aero, i already have the wheels. lol, the color change didnt turn out like i would have liked, but beggers cant be choosers.



not bad IMO. but the pics of the wheels are mixed up. lots of lip in the front. haha.

^^ no doubt man. it takes FOREVER. i keep getting side-tracked with other parts, and wheels, and more wheels for my civic. haha. i already have a handfull of parts, but i dont want to do the swap till i have EVERYTHING i want.

still on the list:

-Fidanza flywheel.-Nismo short shifter. (im gonna bite the bullet and spend some $ on this one...)-DEFI link gauges. 3 of em, plus that damn sending unit thing. -APEX AVC-R. sitting up at the shop, just have to pay for it...-APEX turbo timer. again, at shop, i just need to pay for.

i think thats it. i already have a few thousand $$ in parts. its really mind-boggling how fast $ goes when attempting this swap. thats ofcourse when you just cant seem to leave it stock...

anyhow kamin, i like your ride definately. not to mention the fact that you managed to keep it relatively stock. my Works have kind of weak offsets, but i saved about $1200 or so than if i would have purchased them new. i just hope it turns out the way i like. cause lord knows if it doesnt, ill be selling it in favor of a supercharged 99 M3.

yea its relativley stock on the outside, im not a big fan of body kits, wings, etc. pointless things. i put the money where it matters, in the handling and power.

eventually im gonna do a turbo upgrade, but its not a top priority right now.
