Default "Red Dragon's EG" Lots of NEW pics. New Buddy Club Seats, New SSR (8lb) wheels!@!

Enjoy. I still have a blown headgasket.. but hopefully once i put in a new gasket and finally get it tuned she'll put down between 190-200whp. And do you think i should keep my SSR center caps. or do you think it looks better without the center caps.. I weighed the rims before i got the tires put on and they were only 8lbs. LIghter then any volk, enkei, wheel at the shop i was at.
New Wheels- 15" ssr C's












Old wheels 13" vx


Now equipped with hoosier slicks


My New buddy club SEats








What do you think

Where'd you pick up the Type Cs at, and how much? Nice seats and rims, dunno about all the holes you had to drill in your dash for gauges though....

thanks.. ya at first i wasn't too sure about the ssr's cause all the wheels i have had.. were like all gunmetel or bronze or black.. these are the first shiny wheels i have gotten hahaha.. but ya its all good.. these are actually the 15x6" wheels with 195/50/15 yoko es100's on em. You can actually buy these wheels new from tire rack.. for like 1,400$ with the tires mounted and balanced. For the rails i used spracco steel rails.. inside out.. with modified stock civic sliders to get it to work perfect.

ya it has come a long way.. but still runs the same.. i just can't wait till its tuned.. and actually not overheating.... man everyone always has to say something about taking the damn restrictor plate off hahaha.. ya i know i should have called my car something other then red dragon haha.. Actually my girl/friend suggested i call it red robin.. since my name is rob and all haha.. but that doesnt seem very masculine though haha.. but its all good.

ya i actually thought the red rails would look nice.. but they are really bright.. they still dont look that bad in personthough.. it ads a little color to my interior.. but ya.. i'm still a little iffy on the red rails.. it seemed like a good idea at the time when i ordered them haha.
