Default GrilledCheese33's DC2 Update Thread

4 Months ago, I sold my em1 and picked up a bone stock '99 gsr. I have since caught it up on all its maintenance and have began modding it. Its finally picture worthy in my eyes, so I thought i'd share a little time line of the past 4 months. Enjoy

Bringing it home on Day 1:


New T-Belt!


Suspension Setup:


And how it all looks currently:

Thanks, the boot was carried over from my previous civic, I want to do something different there, i'm not sure what yet. It looks better than the original one tho imo.

They weren't really my choice. I got a flat and the tires were bad on the car anyway. So I just replaced all 4. The kumhos were the best thing that discount tire had in stock. I would've had to order anything better, and that would take a week. I couldn't drive on bad tires and a doughnut for that long.

Thanks Kyle Would def. like for you to take some pics of it. Just lmk when you wanna shoot it, i'm down anytime. The tires are pretty good. They are quiet/smooth and are wearing nicely. They could have more grip though to be better, thats my only complaint about them.
