i need that lip haha...good come up

 

either 15's or 16's, Mashimaro's car is sick!

 

lol, believe me buddy, i've been looking for a LONG time to find one...


sintype - thank you sir! it's getting painted very soon, so i'll keep you guys posted once it gets out of the paint booth. your EK looks great with the SW's as well

 

i can only imagine...ive been trying to find one but might just settle for a BYS...im getting my recaros wednesday after months of waiting for them to come over on the boat (dc5 blue) now i just cant decide if going 5 lug is worth it...

 

5-lug is worth it if you can get it for a good price. the braking difference is there over stock 4-lug brakes, however, you can just get a really aggressive set of pads and rotors and get similar braking and retain your 4-lug.

5-lug = bling bling

btw - i was about to buy a BYS lip as well, but the price scares me and i find them a bit too 'plain' in my opinion..but they are nice!

 

yea the price is upthere...ive done the gsr upgrade on my Si so my brakes are tough...its just the spoon caliper problem..i hate running spacers

 

car was a stolen recovery

 

it all depends on what wheels you run. however, if you run a spacer larger than 5mm, i'd recommend extended studs as well just to be safe.

and depending what rotor you use, you may need a spacer behind the rotor to center the rotor between the spoon caliper. i tried to use the Spoon calipers on my 4-lug and 15" TE37s, but i gave up and went 5-lug instead. straight bolt on with stock ITR wheels.

 

^haha thats my identical situation...te37s 4 lug wrong offset so i would need a 6 mm spacer and 3mm behind the top hat...im just not down for that, i have extended studs but adding that much weight that far out away from the hub is just asking for problems IMO..plus i track my car i could see bad things happening...so 5 lug with ctr's are going to be my direction...I HAVE VOLKS FOR SALE hhaha

 

lol, yah man, been there, done that, gave up and went 5-lug instead

i had the 15x6.5" TE's with a 45 offset. i would've needed a huge spacer to make it work and it just wasn't worth it in the end. however, my local shop does sell rotors that actually work with the 4-lug setup and doesn't require spacers from behind to center them if you're interested (11" rotors).

 

yea i have the 15x7 +43...thanks for the offer but that would mean i would need different wheels too...i'd rather just go 5 lug

 

5-lug it is! post up pics when you get it on your car! i heart 5-lug EG's

 

will do..i kinda already decided that 5 lug was what i was gonna do just still have my doubts lol...i pick it up wednesday, hopefully i can pick up my white CTR's at the same time...

 

anyone have close up pics of EK sideskirts with eg mud flaps?

 

nice! at least you'll have the CTR's with the H-caps instead of my winter wheels with the 'A' caps

i had to buy a set of H-caps for my gunmetal ITR wheels, but it was worth it in the end.

you getting a MC and BB upgrade to go with the 5-lug?

 

i upgraded them when i did the gsr upgrade already...

question...i know hondas H is supposed to be red but if i do mine blue u think it would look stupid...i really hate red and my recaros are blue so i think it would be a nice little touch

 

smart man! can't wait to see the pics dood

 

thanks man

 

need them closer?

 

Whiteslips:

Hopefully you've found another glass or latch by now. I've been asking other people but the only extra one I have is completely naked.

 

nice lip jason !!! cant wait to see it painted and mounted!!

 

5 lug is incredibly overrated, from a functional point of view.
