Default Jay's UKDM EK ----Japanese Tuning Culture----

I took a few pics of my friend's EK and did a little writeup on my blog. Hope you like!

Im definitely not a photographer, and my camera is far from fancy, but I just build this blog to showcase my friends cars

the car looks good, but if it was mine I'd

1. get rid of that type r lip and get a ek4 lip, besides the fitment on it looks awful.

2.those wheels are the next slips, the gt3 disliking them more everyday.

3.lower it alot more, I hate nosebleeds.

4.remove that spoon sticker.

and finally before steps 1-4 I'd see about getting some power adders or even better a swap and power adders.

I realize that its easier said than done, and some of this requires some cash but its all just an opinion

I never noticed the lip before - it does need adjusting.

It is a daily driver, and tbh, when your under 21 in the UK, its practically impossible to insure anything over a 1.6 unless you want to pay thousands!! We get ripped off too - a set of 16" Rotas and tyres will costs atleast $1200!!

My coupe ecahatch? I sold it a little while ago now - i have an S14 (see sig)

For the most part looks clean although the mudflaps need to be replaced with oem ones .

Are you sure it's the Jpaanese tuning culture?


Could be Taiwanese tuning culture.
