Default PMC Picture & Build Thread

Page 1: Intro & Pics
Page 3: Pocono Track Day Pics & Rolling Shots

I just picked up this gem yesterday. Future plans include cams, valvetrain, headwork, pistons and rods.

It was very overcast today, almost zero sun, but I'll have better pics shortly once the weather clears.

Pics from 2-17-08 You can see the before/after detail
















Enjoy

Track use and to promote our company. The brake & suspension setup is already nicely dialed in (Koni/GC combo 450F/550R with GSR brake upgrade front and rear. Hawk HP+ pads, GSR front sway bar, ITR rear sway bar, Beaks subframe brace). It just needs some more power and a cage It's just a stock GSR swap for now with I/H/E.

Is something horribly wrong with the drive side?

Haha, just noticed that. Nope not at all. It's just the locations today and the time of day didn't allow for good driver side shots at all.

Needed much more than what soap and water could ever do. Started off with covering the entire car in a degreasing solution, then a hand wash, then washed the entire car in solvent (except for the CF). Buffed with some intensive compound, polish, then waxed.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I'll be throwing in some Skunk2 Pro 1+ cams, Pro valvesprings & retainers shortly. Getting the Hondata S300 tuned by Evans-Tuning afterwards

First track event is just 39 days away

good start good start. do yourself a favour when you fix that rust, and throw a whole quarter on it, not just a patch job. take it from a canadian, we love our salt, which means we hate our rust. and you can do patch jobs all day long but that **** wont last. gl with your build.

Cool. I noticed that you don't have the passenger side mirror. I happen to see alot of EG6's without them. Why is that?

Some of the lower end models (CX, possibly the VX too) didn't have them. I have an EX passenger side mirror ready to put on but I kind of like the look without it
