Default ***kevster's DC4 Build***

Whats up H-T? So i sold my EJ7 and got a DC4. And boy does it feel good to be driving stick again!

Pics of how i got her.





17's had to go asap. so 99-00 Si wheels go on



ricer pedals had to go


back to stock but their dirty


i thought the exhaust was just some ricer fart can that sounded good but its actually a Tanabe G-Power







its a start but im very happy to be in a DC again. Stay tuned. more updates to follow!

Plans are to clean it up with SiR-G/Si-VTEC goodies. And in the long run i want LS Turbo.

Picked up a set of 94-97 tails. current ones on the car have lots of moisture/water leaking in. going to get it registered and insured tomorrow!

I don't know how i fill about the brown interior, it's more because in France, we don't have it, so when i say it, it's always funny.
