TougeMonster_GK5's Build Thread

Do you have another link for the wing by chance? All the ones on AliExpress look the same, and same as the ones on eBay. Really interested if it just bolts on! Although I do use my rear wiper spray occasionally.
Really wish the aftermarket would get USDM friendly already!

holy crap! Thats filthy for 9k miles! The air filter in my comptech icebox on my 96 b16b hatch was still very clean looking at over 15k miles, must be the way the gk5 intake duct works, looks like it picks up a ton of road debris! I do know it works well though, intake temps are super low on the freeway in my gk5, just like my comptech icebox.

Just some random ebay brand one for about $15. Make sure the seller confirms it fits for your car before committing the purchase.

Unfortunately, I didn't measure the distance between the brake and accelerator pedals before installation of the bracket.
I do, however, have a picture of the distance between the two pedals with the bracket installed and set to position C.

Photo's of the Megan Racing Front Roll Center Adjusters installed, car leveled. Haven't tested driving on the twisties yet, need another alignment day. Maybe I should do that tomorrow morning .
OH! And these lovely's arrived... Work Emotion Kai 16x7 +35 Gun Metal...
Need new tires for these.. and I'm thinking about either the Falken Azenis RT615K+ in 215/45 or go budget Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 in 205/50. I plan on switching between the Volk TEs+S.Drives and the new wheel set up for next month's planed SF Speed Track Day at Mazda Speedway Laguna Seca and see how the car performs..
Cheers!

Yes, the TEs are much lighter and more structurally sound compared to the Emotion Kais. I went with them because they were on sale for dirt cheap, and would rather use those as dailys versus the TEs, they attract too much attention.. and want them to be treated as Track Only setup
