So I went back to full on USDM style and today I installed those ebay fender braces. After I was done, I took a drive, washed her and took some pics. Surprisingly the fender braces actually stiffened up the cornering and made my engine vibration on start-up go away. I also got new wheels and tires about a week ago. This car is my daily driver so the paint is not perfect.

Wheels are Motegi MR12s 15x8 touched up the white with wheel paint. Tires are Hankook Ventus HRIIs (205/50/15). Hope u enjoy the pics and let me know what u think...

 

I would have got 195/50/r15 or 205/45/r15 tires so you could lower it a tad bit more. But thats just me, looks good though

 

You kids and your unnecessary mods. The angled exhaust is my personal favorite.

 

I don't see anything special.

 

thanks...i probly could go lower but it would scrape. the shocks and coilovers are dialed in just right. ill try going lower after i get some sway bars.

It's angled because the OEM exhaust piping on that car goes under the passenger side and exits on the driver's side.

EDIT: You have sidemarkers, knockoff GABs, amber corners and your car is scraping the ground. That leaves you with 0 room to talk about unnecessary modifications.

 

looks good man. I have the same tires.

 

nice

 

you're both USDM'ED out...why the bickering?

 

for some reason the wheels look a lot bigger then 15s

Hey...noob job....do you mean to tell me that the muffler shop that pieced that system together couldn't make it exit out of the rear like it did when it had an OE system? As if the muffler guy had no other alternative but to angle it that way. Get a grip, buddy.

Perhaps you don't know, but plenty of aftermarket exhaust companies make systems that fit that car perfectly, without the need for unnecessary angles. Besides, from the looks of car, he doesn't even have a need for a performance exhaust system, much less one that is angled.

By posting pictures of your car on this forum, you, by default, open up your post to comments, whether positive or negative. That being said, I can bash all I want on your Megan Racing exhaust set-up. On the same token, you can bash all over my car, which is, by no means, perfect...nor is it built to meet the standards of every critic.

You should gather up your gonads and accept the fact that people may have less than good things to say about your ride.

 

looks clean

Just because it looks stock from the outside doesn't necessarily mean that it is.

 

Paint your drums black plz


Edit: Loving the mud flaps!

 

Damn that's nice man, way better than mine LOL

Mine is like...the crappy version of yours. I have BFGoodrich Traction T/As on mine...205/55

 

wheels are ugly and the exhaust is gay, but it is real clean. hard to find a crx in that condition these days

 

^^^

The wheels/tires just don't look right
