Default Teal DC2 - After 3 Stage Wax - After Turbo Install - BURNOUT pics - (56k prolly not, but pics are he

:EDIT: Car doesn't really look like this anymore. It has since been through 3 motors (2 LS and a built GSR/B16) and 2 diff Turbo setups. A friend of mine bumped the thread a year and a half later to be funny. I will try to et some more recent pics of it up since he did. However currently the car is down due to some problems with the the last motor. Currently building 1.9 B16 that should put out around 400-450 on pump and 550 on race gas. Oh yea and the mileage is probably around 255,XXX

Washed the car today. And it looked pretty good so I took some pics. I did the Meguiars 3 Stage Wax about 2 weeks ago still shines pretty good. Some of you may remember me talking about doing a turbo on my Type R a while back, well that car is totalled but I built a Turbo LS so its all good now. I know its not the prettiest, but its all I've done for now. Add (orig.jpg for big pics).

A few stock pics when I bought it about 3 months ago.






And now for the new pictures....

XTREME reflection

Holy ****, how did you make/get that steering wheel. Looks like a momo with a JDM ITR center cap? That looks awesome. Ive never been a big fan of teal, though.

YES SIR. Actually the front is lowered on Tokico Illuminas and Eibach Pro-kit, and the back would be but the bolts in the LCA are seized so I have to cut and drill them out, but that suspension set up is for sale in hopes of getting some coilovers in the future. I have only had the car for not even 3 months. So I am just getting started with it.

Ah yes, Perfect. Don't forget to get the SIR-G Lip
You don't have to cut it out, take the car to a local Midas and tell them to use air tools on the LCA bolt. Tell them to loosen it and then hand torque it down so you can drive it back home. Usually they'll just ask for lunch money

Eventually I will get rims. And yea GSR would be nice, but like I said I do what I can with what I have for now, cause I've only had it for not even 3 months, but yes all that will come with in time. Everything cost money, and money only comes with time and hard work so as will those parts.

And I like the Golden Eagle Vacuum Manifold alot. It made it alot easier and everythings accurate

Again thanks for the props.
