Default The Pink Panther Dc2

What’s up every one. To begin with, I bought my car 2 years ago. It is a 1996 special edition, Gs-r. I bought it from the second owner who only had it a few months. It had 87,xxx miles on her at the time. My theme for her are quality parts and I’m trying to keep it old skool with oem parts. I welcome all positive and constructive comments and ideas. At times it will get disorganized, but I will catch it and do better. Like I said this is my first thread and build, bare with me. It’s a huge work in progress. I’m a college student on a tight budget, but after saving and working I hope to have a quality build. Thank you for your comments and time.


Day i bought her home



I took off those hideous fog lights



After a while I found me some Si-vtec corners and fogs



Next, i was heading home from school when my car started to get louder and louder. By the time i got my car home, it sounded like i was running open header. It turns out, my exhuast finally rusted through and broke in half at the welds before the resonator. My moto has been if it isn't broken don't fix it. So now that my exhuast was broken, i didn't feel like spending money on a new oem exhuast. A local had this for sale for cheap. So i picked up an GTII exhuast.






Still to come Rs*r header installation, header heat wrap and exhaust heat wrap
