Default project DC2 now 6 weeks in....

Heres a little timeline so far of my 7th Honda, a 94 GSR. I've had it about 6 weeks so far. Just wanted to share the progress I've made so far...

Same weekend I got it, this is after I removed some ugly *** grey pinstriping and gave it a 3 step paint treatment...






Had these bastids left over from my old car...more on these later


Impulse buy while at a friends shop...




Figured I would do things right being that this is my 7th Honda...no more cheap ****!








during installation earlier tonight...




my good friend Shaun expressing some concern with the ride height..I wish I could have left it this low, but wheels would rub like crazy


annnnnnd this is how we ended up leaving it set at for now. I'm happy!


Other minor things not pictured are red striped del sol seats and rear wiper delete.

Next up is the EDFC controller, Tein front and rear upper strut tower bars, some SPC camber kit items, rear LCA's and some spherical trailing arm bearing cups to tighten things up a lil

Looks nice. You should ditch that wing and it'd be ubular sexyness.

Yeah I want to, but just taking it off right now and leaving holes in your trunklid is ghetto. That part I can wait on till the car gets resprayed in the future.

The front rubs a little on harder turns. Haven't really hit any potholes and I don't intend to in the future either, I do value my wheels

As far as how low I set it, I'm not sure what you mean, you can clearly see the ride height from the picture posted above.
