Default Building my ultimate EK

It's been 3 years sence I started planning and ordering parts for my EK and this winter is when it all starts to come together finally. I'll start posting photos when I get starting after christmas. This is what I got so far....
Engine

Fully Built 1997 USDM H22A by Justice Racing Engines of Frederick MD
Darton Sleeves
Custom 90MM Arias pistons
Crower Rods
ACL bearings
Balance shafts removed
Race spec porting
Ferrea 1mm intake and exhaust valves
Ferrea turbo valve springs
Ferrea titanium retainers and locks
ARP main studs and head studs
CAT Turbo spec cams
STR cam gears
STR 70mm throttle body
STR fuel rail
STR cam seal

I've been looking at a Garrett GT35R turbo and i'm thinking about going with a custom turbo manifold. All the pipes will be custom bent when i get the motor in the car, and haven't decided on Hondata S300 or AEM plug and play.

Suspension

I was strongly considering going 5 lug, but dont know if I doing that just yet or not, i've got some time with that one.

Omni 12K F 10K R coilovers
Omni rear lower control arms
Omni camber kit front and rear
Eibach sway bars front and rear
PasswordJDM 3 point front tower bar
PasswordJDM rear upper and lower strut rods
Cusco Roll cage coming soon :-)

Ok now for all the JDM flare

Interior

JDM CTR power door panels
JDM CTR red carpet
JDM CTR drivers vent
JDM CTR air bag tray
JDM CTR E-brake and console
JDM CTR shift boot
cant stand to buy a 200.00 shift **** so that won't be in this list ever......
Honda S2000 gauge cluster! I know how to get the speedo to work...shhhhh!
Corbeau CR1 red seats
Corbeau 4 point harness (seats and harness are new and for sale if anyone is interested)

Exterior

Cwest Kouki front bumper and side steps from Motorex
JDM CTR rear lip
JDM CTR headlights (99-00)
OEM 99 fenders
OEM 99 hood
Spoon CF spoiler
Monster CF hood
maybe spoon mirrors, not sure yet
lots more to come in the next few months.....

I would like to get my hands on some 18" 2005 Volk LE28N in black but who knows. As for the paint, i'll leave that for the final pics. Like I said i'll be posting some pics soon, let me know what you all think.

sounds like a working progress I went through the same ordeal and eventually I figured I'd change some of the things, had to resell some items... good luck to you

Agreed. 16" max otherwise it just looks too flashy/goofy.

Need big rims for bigger brake options. 18's where just a thought. I'll probley stick with the 17's like I have for years.

This is an EK, your setup doesnt warrant that much braking. What size rotors could you possibly be using? The wilwood big brake upgrade is 12.19'' rotors and 16'ss fit on it! 18's look extremely akward and you are just wasting your money on brakes that you wont even need man...

How does a turbo'd H22 not warrant brake upgrades?

I'll be taking some photos of the car tonight and post them tomorrow or monday night. The car is stripped and on jack stands now, I have to take the fuel and brake lines off because i'm getting ready to undercoat it.

do you know how to read? built turbo h22 will net well over 400hp. why not stop as fast as you accelerate?

Either way, it is his vehicle, youre not the one driving it, dont shoot a man down because hes tossing the idea of 18's around. lots of you bitches here are too damn picky, just because someone builds their car in a way you wouldnt.

Props on the build, looking forward to pictures, and good luck with it all bro!
