    Default Another Build Thread

    I figure that since my clutch and a few other things have decided to start to f*** up, that I might as well start working on this never ending project I call my car.

    Still haven't thought everything out yet, but this is what I got:

    Engine/Trans/ETC

    LS/VTEC (eventually built and boosted)
    LS Trans till rebuild
    That's all I got


    Suspension

    I got KYB AGX with H&R Springs, need something softer though (need suggestions)
    Megan Strut Bars
    Megan Rear LCA's

    Interior

    Maybe some Sparco or Bride Seats w/Takata Harnesses


    Exterior

    Fog lights
    CTR Side Mirrors
    Mugen CF Lip
    8k HID's
    Maybe some sidemarkers


    Audio

    Just replace this old stuff with something better

    Here it pic of the car as it sits.




    This is in here because this is something I figured the squad would get a kick out of since I am not always around, so please do not move this thread.

    UPDATE

    Here is a pic of the Mugen CF lip I took when I was at work at closing.

    Many thanks to AnclyT for not selling this to anyone.




    I will have a pic of the lip on the car once I am done installing it.

    That lip is gonna make the car looks so good... not that it doesn't look good now, but there's something about the right lip that sets a car off well.

    good stuff, man

    I already got reaction like that when I went to work today. One of co-workers thought I had a new car.

    It does make the car "pop" a little more.
