The Wife's Car Build Photo Log

[GSRTURBOTEG]

Alright I know that everyone on IA is stuck to JDM like stank of do do but I still like the old school way of kits, big wheels, and awesome paintjobs and this car is no different. I will not loose my cool by your comments I will take them in stride and know that I am still able to think outside the box while the rest of you sit huddled in the corner looking for the JDM light. Anyway plenty more pictures to come and final product real soon.
Thanks as always!


New pics of the first coats of paint still alot of work to be done but I figured let the moaning begin about how you all don't like it so go ahead and have your fieldday on my stuff again.

We have a long way to go on this one I have full comptech suspension, sway bars, new wheels, comptech exhaust, twin turbo setup to install, and big brake kit to put in as well as the system 3tvs, ps3, 4subs for the back. Haven't figured out yet if we are going to do a nitrous kit or not. but the kit is what everybody gets worked up over that is why I put picks up. Just to make people chatter and bitch moan and complain. It will be fast, loud, and clean when it is doen I guarentee it.

[Slomaro Z28]

I agree. If it looks good, it looks good

[BITCHING]

it looks good not like all the cars on here .every car on here looks like there stock . stock sucks

[dz988]

gud luck wit d project :goodjob:

[Big Deezy]

fuck the haters.... as long as it's done right. Then I can appreciate a clean kitted car

ive always wondered why some people with a fast car add like a few hundred pounds 4 subs?!?! :thinking:

[GSRTURBOTEG]

Becaue it is a daily driver, not a trailer queen, nor pure race car. My wife has a very heavy foot and is usually late on the brakes so I want it to be fast but not too fast. Plus with the subs and TV's the kids will like riding in it too.

[blackboi50]

So you're going with twin turbo setup? Yes it will be fast, but i would not let my wife or my kids near the car while she is driving.

[Nittanys1]

What side skirts are you going to be putting on there?

[Got Milk?]

I hope you're being sarcastic. :eek:

Kits and big wheels are hardly old school. Later, QD.

Thanks, TE

[1NonlyAccord]

theres a silver one with a r34 body kit(mayb its the same front as you have) riding around near me,looks pretty good with factory wheels.

i can respect that im sure the kids would be chillin watching finding nemo while going 120 mph!!!!! lol

[FasTech]

I can't voice my opinion until I see a finished product. Maybe it will look good, maybe it won't. Time will tell!

[G.C]

^^ was going to say the same thing. Keep us updated.

[B_Hoov]

man that thing is clean i dont care what ppl say! it looks mean too. repped!

[GSRTURBOTEG]

it is the bmagic body kit from AIT front back and sides.

[9ussy]

it actually looks good... there's only some body kits that i dont like... yours looks good tho :goodjob:.. keep us updated..

[GSRTURBOTEG]

New pics added first coats of paint done today and a couple more to go before we break out the candy.

[Dwisforme05]

im interested to see this turnout!

[GSRTURBOTEG]

For those of you who know me it will be perfect I will not settle for less.

[VooDooXII]

Aw hell this should look good...I've seen some people do these cars up and it comes out really nice. I like the color you've chosen.

I'd like to see this come together. :goodjob:

[GSRTURBOTEG]

Thanks we should have it together by this weekend I wanted to have it ready for the V meet but I don't think that is possible right now.

[eraser4g63]

I think it will look pretty good when it's done. I don't see why every one hates body kits some of the nicest cars on this site have them. I am not a huge fan of them myself but when done right they look great.

[Danzo]

I can respect the work you're doing but not the choice of "big wheels and body kits"

It just screams for attention and that is pretty annoying. Also I say its a bad choice on the TT setup for your wife if she has a heavy foot. I see this car being totaled in the near future no matter how big your brakes are. If she doesn't know how to drive it you better teach her or you better get full coverage insurance and claim all the work you're doing to it. Nice paint by the way.

Yeah she knows what she is doing behind the wheel that is no problem, and as far as the insurance I am an Agent myself so that is not a problem. I will be fully covered.

[twincannon26]

love the color.

what size/width wheels you have in mind?

[GSRTURBOTEG]

love the color.

what size/width wheels you have in mind?

I am putting Stern ST1 face 3 18/8.5 on the front and 18/9.5 on the rear I know that will bring up crap discussion. But I think it looks good so...

[jcs]

lovin it bro...

[quickdodge®]

some of the nicest cars on this site have them.

You were joking right? Later, QD.

[GSRTURBOTEG]

[m3dic8d]

[Crazy Asian]

[FasTech]

I'm just not feelin' it right now...... Maybe a good drop and nice rims will change the look ALOT.

[GSRTURBOTEG]

[white_rice]

[AtifSajid]

[TurboRiceCooker]

Just because your mama's to poor to buy you a bodykits, you have to dog some one else ride?..

[Sport1.3]

looks decent.....the white mesh isnt my style though

[GSRTURBOTEG]

looks decent.....the white mesh isnt my style though

Yeah I know what you mean it is silver and not painted but it is coming out when we put the IC and piping in. the wife wanted to see what it would look like with it in.

[GSRTURBOTEG]

People the other most important thing to remember is this is a chic car and not a guys play toy so it is and will always be what ever it takes to make MOMMA HAPPY because if she is not happy then no one is happy.

Truer words were never spoken man haha. An unhappy woman has a tendency to make everyone else just as unhappy as her.

Car is looking very good too. A lot better than I expected. The body kit is more of a wide body look than a fast and furious which is a very good thing to me :goodjob:. Cant wait to see the rest of the stuff you have planned.

[Nittanys1]

wow what color is the car?

[black_e92]

nice :goodjob:

[Sport1.3]

Yeah I know what you mean it is silver and not painted but it is coming out when we put the IC and piping in. the wife wanted to see what it would look like with it in.


Good deal :D :bump:

[GSRTURBOTEG]

wow what color is the car?


The top is Honda Granada Black with the gold pearls taken out and a double dose of red pearls added back in and the bottom is black cherry mixed with wild berry and an extra dose of red peals added to the bottom color. The pen stripe is mercedez silver and the whole car was cleared with a clear coat that had red pearl mixed into it. I came out very good we were going to go candy but after researching it the paint just won't hold up very long and we would have to redo it again, and that crap gets expensive.

[Nittanys1]

wow that some concoction!

[GSRTURBOTEG]

yeah I really was suprised to see it come out like a wine berry with a major flip in the sunlight.

[ghostfacekil]

looking good bro that wing is nice are you going to smoke those tails ?

[GSRTURBOTEG]

looking good bro that wing is nice are you going to smoke those tails ?

No depo makes the jdm black housing taillights for this car as well and I am waiting on them to get here.

[Sentra]

Are you going to do anything to the motor?

[08turb@x]

We have a long way to go on this one I have full comptech suspension, sway bars, new wheels, comptech exhaust, twin turbo setup to install, and big brake kit to put in as well as the system 3tvs, ps3, 4subs for the back.

sounds like a bad ass project....do what you gotta do...reps

[Z0_o6]

what are the specifics on the twin turbo setup? is the car a 6-speed?

[neverenough]

looks great

[Black Mamba]

Yeah man, I actually like the paint job and the kit man. Looks real clean. I would take off those mesh grilles though on the kit.

Don't even listen to these kids that are dogging on your wife's car. The kit and + paint alone probably costs more than their car anyways.

[chinitoxamor]

spray the grill black

[JmDubz]

nice! looks pretty clean!

[2rotor]

Why? Just because he put a body kit on it?


Everyone really need to get off of this anti-body kit shit. If it looks good, it looks good.

precisely, if it looks good, IT LOOKS GOOD...
i think it could look quite nice, good color, kit isn't TOO gawdy, i think an excellent fit wheel and the proper stance... this car will be very sleek!
coming along nicely.

[Teg.LS]

Looks nice. nothing wrong with a subtle kit. Reps for having to listen to negative comments. :)

[93EG6LS]

Im not a kit fan but that looks good cant wait to c more pics

[_Christian_]

Tasteless.

[Turbodude06]

it looks good not like all the cars on here .every car on here looks like there stock . stock sucks

:goodjob: yep, looks good

[VooDooXII]

Haha looks sort of odd with the kit and stock wheels...the wheels look dwarfed. My only criticism is that the mesh in the front bumper looks too bright.

Coming together well though. :goodjob:

[tdurr]

Very nice. I dig it, if it was lowered and on diff rims it would be so damn sexy lol. Keep it going man! Tell ur wife her car is ballin haha Repz

[2turbo4u]

GL, hope it don't end up in the stolen car section

[GSRTURBOTEG]

Alright not quite done with it yet but here are some pics with it lowered and with the wheels on it.

[Nittanys1]

no worky...

[GSRTURBOTEG]

new pics are on the first page

[VooDooXII]

Not bad, not bad...is that the finished product?

[Nittanys1]

ahh IC, they were not there when i looked...whats up with the base of the side mirrors?

[GSRTURBOTEG]

No I still have a couple more odds and ends for the outside, I will post pics of the engine bay when we get done and also the interior and trunk when the system is complete.

[GSRTURBOTEG]

ahh IC, they were not there when i looked...whats up with the base of the side mirrors?



Japanese plastic with 4 years of weather on them and I have not made up my mind to paint them yet.

[JITB]

i love that color.. i think it needs bigger wheels tho... and that mesh kind of messes up the nice paint...lol

[GSRTURBOTEG]

i love that color.. i think it needs bigger wheels tho... and that mesh kind of messes up the nice paint...lol


We are painting the grills this weekend and as far as the wheels those are 18's and wish I had put 20's on there but was hesitant to because of here in Macon that is the ghetto thing to do. But yes bigger wheels would look better.

[takume]

don't listen to the haters, it looks go thus far.

[Black Mamba]

Oh btw, where did you get it painted? How much did it cost you to paint? LMK with a PM if you don't mind

[AlliRae]

i like it... done nice!
