Default Quick Cap on my k20/ek build and Ill post as I progress

Right now my builds 80% done, but im doing it in stages so there always be more. as of now ill call it stage 1. (street class time attack) if i qualify im on the line on a few rules according to redlines rules. but ill do any event on a track. still need help with motor lil. I did my suspe
nsion pretty good n left some motor stuff last.


Read Before build:
k20z3 mocked with hasport mounts and taken out for paint
waiting on a paintshop thats in a move so i got a week to choose a color.
even though im like 75% done i still have a lota work to do. Ill get into what im missing later. 100% stripped inside w/ 10pt cage.



PAINT? (i CAN choose my own color and not trying to bite anyone, just ideas pls and please post pics + name of color kthx.

Open to suggestions for paint color. I wanted jade green metallic wen i started this project 2 years ago. but now it seems to have "cought on" got popular so idk if its still rare for cars (excluding base model rsx) let me know! I dont mind common oem honda colors post some ideas bcus i dont have access to comp right now to look myself. Like Black, White (id hate to go white so common unless its a new crazy pearl from hell) jade green metallic (base model rsx color) gunmetals silvers, and also like graphite grays, rootbeer metallic. Lighter greens ex. I hate midori sorry guys. i hate it for me dont mean i dont like it on ur cars ok. doubt id do red or blue but idk like i said if u feel the need post pics, perfer ek coupes but it dont matter what car it on. do perfer oem honda but if u got a sick color chare it.
