Bthasht's Trail
AIGHT HERE IS MY TRAIL FROM THE DAY i BOUGHT HER TO THE PRESENT DAY.
The day I brought her home. Milano Red Sport 19,500 miles June 2010:
First Mod off my EJ1. Spoon Cap babe:
First sound system. Ugly but worked:
Next Mod Yellow fog tint:
Lowered her on skunk springs
Did these together. Milano red cover and SSR Intake
Polished my battery bolts and painted stay milano:
Added these shiney sweethearts from Password:JDM 30 total in my bay:
Current Sounds, Custom built box to fit between wells. Painted Line x black to match texture in interior, then painted flat black:
Installed Password:JDM intake manifold gaskit and painted runners Hi Heat Gold:
Bought this bad boy and of course painted it Milano Baby:
Dont forget me:
Painted the stockies Championship white and tinted her 35% fronts and 20% rest.
Cut rear springs one full coil and wrapped with heater hose to eliminate squeks from progress bar.
She now sits dead level at 4 1/4" off pavement:
Went through a sticker phase. Im over that now:
Painted my rear garnish Trim black and added JDM emblem:
Garnish, JDM Emblem and JDM Wiper Mod and JDM slim window visors:
Dusted engine cover gold, Password:JDM EGR and Brake Socks, and Tanabe Upper Bar:
JDM front emblem and Fog bezels painted Trim Black:
JDM GD3 Clear Sidemarkers installed w/amber bulbs:
Tanabe Front Underbrace Installed:
Second set of Rims after stockies (buddy club P1s were first, but only had 1 day due to +35 offset rubbing like CRAZY).
Drag DR16 in 16x7 +40. Painted rear view mirror, you guessed it MILANO RED BABY.
Front fender tabs cut, front liners cut, front bumper tabs cut. Rear bumper tabs cut and rear fenders rolled:
My Thrid set of wheels were LS meshies. No pics on car computer crashed and lost those pics
:
Forth set of wheels, Jmags 15x7 +42 Nitto 205/50/15s. Custom Painted by me in PPG Caramel Apple. Love this set.
Then I installed these from RocksaGD3. Painted them Trim Black, Custom grinded to fit underside:
My PIAA Head and Fog light bulbs:
And now my most current set of wheels. Circuit 8s in 16x7 +40. Custom painted as usual, Hammered Gold. Kumho 205/40/16.
Had her custom aligned for the third time.
First to correct toe from lowering. Second to set front camber at -.50. And current to set front at -1.0 camber.
And thats where im at now.
Rota center caps are on the way, and already considering painting 8s white,because I feel that color to be hottest on Milano.
So after 9 months I have made good progress, but no where near done yet.
However I just bought my first home so its time to go to house mods, but the fit will not be forgotten in mods.
Painted Front calipers and rear drums Semi- Gloss Black:
Replaced these on my front bumper due to a very spirted track day
Finally got these in the mail. Still yet to install however:
Mods soon to come are:
*Password:JDM Slotted and Drilled Front Rotors
*EBC or Hawk Front Brake Pads
*Stainless Braided Front Brake Lines
*Rear Drums Painted Black
*EBC or Hawk Rear Brake Shoes
*Duckbill Spoiler Painted Milano Red
*Who Knows What May Come After That?

New items and shots:
Aspec Test Pipe
Teins are on in front. Dropped the needed 1/2" I wanted. 22" top of wheelwell to ground. Skunks are still on in back, but will be coming off soon. Got someone up my sleeve for those....

That looks really good.
The sidemarkers were a nice touch! Goes well with the wheels, intake mani and fog lights!
Have you linked the sidemarkers with the turn signals? That would be a cool tweak.
Anychance you can get some sound clips of the new exhaust?
Nice work dude! She has really come around since you bought her..
Keep up the awesome work too!
I guess I can give you a shout out now if I have not already....."thanx for inspiring me to tint my windows>
