Default EJ1 Build

I got my Ej1 in May of 2010, it was my first car. It was completely stock when i got it, besides a stereo. I already have a build thread for my swap and turbo but I thought i would make one for other upgrades.







My first modification was a Short ram intake and put some cheap wheels on it. Soon after that i lowered on some cheap springs i found on Craigslist.





In January of 2011, I decide to buy a LS swap from Craigslist. Since i already have a build thread for the swap i wont go into great detail. Here is the link to that thread if you want to check it out.

Before


After


After the swap was done, I decided to boost it. This is also included in my other thread so i wont go into detail.

After I boosted it I installed some gauges. I bought a Prosport boost gauge and a Prosport oil pressure gauge. I made a vent pod to put my gauges in. While i did this i also change the bulbs in my gauge cluster and climate control to amber, so they would match my gauges.





The gauges glow white during the day, and switch to amber at night.

During the day


At night




The next thing i did was buy new wheels.



My old struts were blown so i bought some Omni full coilovers from one of my friends.



I also bought some Blue Blox Lca's.
