Default EM1 fun. Yesterday's projects. (56k ok)

Nothing too special but I'm bored so posting the few pics I have from yesterday.

Todays project, turn my brother's SI (right) into more of a twin to my SI (left).


Step one: Remove the hideous pinstripe it had.


Step two: Suspension, I know a lot of you hate Tokico but it is inexpensive and his car never sees the track or any hard driving at all. Just a city commuter.


Also did the factory fogs but didn't take pics cause it was late. And yes, did mod the harness so they come on with parking lights. The other little thing it got was locking lug nuts and we had a 03 SI emblem but he wants to put it on back instead of the grill.

Yeah. Heres a quick rundown. He had a GSR Teg, sold it and bought a RSX-S, sold it and bought a FBP SI, I rode in it and liked it so I bought an EBP one, he liked the EBP so sold he FBP and bought a EBP, it got stolen after less than 2 months, just replaced it with the current EBP. But he wants to sell the current EBP and get a 337 GTI now.

VW

No, I'm not on a Honda trip. Have a VW in the driveway now and don't care for them. VW's are just a pain in the *** to work on. And I've ran a 337 and it couldn't hang so the argument that they are faster doesn't count. Especially since he doesn't care about speed.

It is one of the projects I plan on doing to mine I think. Was kind of waiting till I can get the stuff to do an HID retrofit to kill 2 birds with one stone. But still not sure if I am going flat black or do a little more of a gunmetal color.

Seems there are more people who hate them than like them. Whenever there is a suspension thread everyone says they suck and to get Koni's. I don't know cause I've never had either, I just know my brother likes the Tokicos cause they do what he wants for cheap.

yeah the next year after the 337, the 20th anniversary edition [ae] was introduced, which was basically the same as the 337, but came in blue, yellow and black only, r32 wheels, and some other difference....but still the same 1.8t.

and this year the r32 should finally come across the sea...
its a totally whole new beast. 3.2 v6, awd, dual exhaust, kit, rims, seats..etc..
