Used to look like this (JRSC ZC, 4.9 FD, Eibachs & Tokicos, 16" SSRs, 205/40s):





Now it looks like this (H22a, LSD, 4.9 FD, F&F Type IIs, Legend Calipers, 15" Racing Harts, 205/50 R888s):











Sorry about the 3.0 megapixel quality and the filth. It hasn't been washed in a year and a half now, lol.

To be honest, I prefer the old look. What do you guys think?

crx_arturo

looking bad ***

alphalanos

new look all the way. thing is sick

mf10_eg88

what are your plans for the motor?

pimpwagon

Should have kept the A/C... But you do nice work I will say. Too many hacks out there. Or should i say, in here.

FOUR-G

Maybe someday cams and ITBs, but for now I'm happy with the stock block/head/ecu.

I have really bad luck when it comes to A/C. It would not have been worth the trouble in my case.

pimpwagon

LOL. If i were in arizona A/c would always be my primary concern. Long as a four door is getting some love i like it! I used to be scared of a/c too. my hatch spits 35 degrees on a 95 degree day on the highway. happy 4th!

i prefer the old wheels, but with the new tires, and i hate the sh#$ storm of stickers on the rear windshield and the roof rack, so basically just throw on the old wheels and your good

BUT i have to say that if you have all your windows up etc and no one can see your gauges that car looks VERY deceptive, could probably pull one over on ALOT of muscle guys, evos, etc with that real tame sleeper-ish look to it

FOUR-G

damn the AC forum is dead unless you're an "official-" or "-squad" thread, lol

MonkeyMagic

old look - roof rack = win

new look is taking itself way too seriously.. if the thing doesn't run 9's or lap nsx's it's just pointless.

monjarassi

why a boost gauge?? wtf

FOUR-G

What do you mean taking itself too seriously? To me, it looks stock minus a hood with some puffy tires...

It's leftover from the last setup. It was supercharged. Vacuum can tell you a lot about the condition of an engine, so I don't mind it sticking around.

type_r_ek

old wheels, less gauges and a hood would make it perfect

MonkeyMagic

def not trying to knock man. but without even reading the words to your first post it seems you are in between or not sure what direction to take the project.

the super beefy tires look like it's supposed to run 9's and lap nsx's. what the hey?

old sparco wheels are incredibly hard to pull off. they usually look pepboys when they are presented in anything but a flawless and obviously custom finish. you don't seem that in to them, those are wheels you really gotta stand behind..

also just noticed, in the one pic it looks like it's juiced?? gotta give you props on that one. mad respect.

i like the change. Minus all the gauges and needs more low.

FOUR-G

They're actually Racing Hart Cybers, same design as the Sparcos. You're right, they're not my favorite wheel in the world. I got them because the price was right at 250, and they fit over the brakes. The tires were my second choice as well. R1Rs in 195/50 were on backorder everywhere, and I came across the R888s for 360 for all four. I really regret trading the white SSRs for a stupid CTR trans that I never even used.

Good eyes on the hydraulic lines, haha. Its been four years sinced I pulled the setup and my trunk STILL leaks oil

MonkeyMagic

250 for near anything is cheap lol, beats steelies. you'll find something you like and it'll pull the car together 1000% better than it sits now.

and LOL @ oil leaks.. i think anybody with a real street setup has driven around with a trunk full of cat litter at least once lmao.

So the hood doesnt fit?

Damn Chris...it's been a minuet since I've heard from you. I'm glad I came across this old thread. I'm loving the makeover although it's been a while. Wonder what it looks like now

Pretty sure he sold the sedan.

Negative.

Thank you sir!

~8" spacer needed. But thanks for trying to know it all, "doe."

Double negative. I keep trying, but Destiny will not allow it, lol. That or I build this damn thing too much to my specifications for anybody else to be interested? I just get bored from time to time and think "this" or "that" would be fun to start over with.

FOUR-G

Car is exactly the same though, minus the leaks and minor issues it had. All loose ends were recently taken care of. She's pretty minty ATM if I do say so myself
