Default Introducing my VSM EJ6 - First Post! {56k Call RoadRunner!}

As the title says this is my first post on H-T. I've been in the background for quite some time and today i decided to post. I got my VSM EJ6 about a year ago and have started "building" it from the ground up. Right now its pretty much stock but there will be many more things to come.

\/ First day i got the car...


-------------------------------------------------

\/ One Week later, n1 had to be put on...


-------------------------------------------------

\/ Fresh out the muffler shop...



-------------------------------------------------

\/ Honda Decided not to equip the DX with a tach so i did...


-------------------------------------------------

\/ My boyz and i installed those adjustable green things.



-------------------------------------------------

\/ Steelies are ugly, but thats what i had to work with


-------------------------------------------------

Si Wheels came after winter and 99-00 Tails were changed many months b4

-------------------------------------------------

\/ This wouldnt be complete with moving shots...



-------------------------------------------------

\/ Burn that rubba!!!!


-------------------------------------------------

\/ This is what the EJ looks like now...



Hopefully motor swap will come soon.
Comments/Criticism welcome.

Thanks For Looking

Nice car man. Looks like you might have some camber probs though, but it could be the angle. It's all good though, I've got Tein SS's on my Sol and am running camber like the Ferrari F2003-GA (Bye-Bye tires, until I get new wheels)

That coupe looks good with the SI rims on it, because it is silver on silver. What's under the hood? Just thought that I would ask since I saw that crazy burn out! ;}

Improper camber does not eat tires as much as improper toe does. If you get an alignment shop to set your toe to zero, then you would just barely see some uneven tire wear, if any.

Looks good VSM EK's are one of the only cars that can pull off black mouldings and doorhandles sucessfully. That front end needs to go...I'd look into some headlights, a grille, and lip if thats your thing. But overall very

BTW...your car looks exactly like Trevor's from AZHT squad

Yeah, I was concerned at first but it didn't get bad. The one thing that really bothers me is the tach, I just really dislike those thin tachs. For some reason the bigger autometer ones don't bother me as much. And I would get some light tint and even though the black trim doesn't look bad on silver, I think the car would look twice as good with silver trim.

Wow, in a residential, awesome.. more of a reason for people to hate Honda racers.


Besides the ricer burnout, those moving shots are kinda cool. Whoever took the pics looks like they were hanging out pretty far and low!
