seriously i dont think theres any need to make new threads anymore. its just us who posts here anyway. while everyone is talking about builds..hmmm i should have Tein S techs coming in the next couple weeks or so i'm pretty stoked about that. Next is either wheels or finishing up exhaust.

 

sounds nice jae.

what wheels are you looking at?

what would you get to finish the exhaust?

 

trying to get Konig Mega Race (The mugen NR wannabes). either that or some black buddy clubs if i want to stick with the orange and black theme which im kind of leaning away from now.

as far as exhausts go i just need to get a mid pipe and test pipe and it'd be done. but thats probably a bunch of torque lost due to no back pressure.

 

i would keep the cat if i were you. i think you have to smog your car in pierce county.

so what will be your cars new theme?

 

not sure what the new theme is going to be lol. i just really like the look of the polished wheel so really i'm just trying to find anything that would make the car look clean and simple.

 

could always go with the enkei rpf's or the kosei's

 

yeah i guess so. either way the wheels would probably come late summer so i have time to think about it.

 

yeah. smart move. only 12 more days.

 

hahaha will the turbo be installed by the meet or will you just have it in the back of your car??

 

i think this is just me: chrome finished lip wheels are overkilled, outplayed,etc watever they call it, just my 02...i am planning on get my megans coilovers installed, then save up for some rotas, spoon look alike, then hopefully i can get the n1 from kyler, then that's it for now. then maybe brake pads for upgrade, then i'll be focusing on chassis reinforcement, not much of power hunger yet. i need to take good care of cornering first. and yea, NA all the way..

 

yeah dude i'm not a big fan of the polished lip either. thats why im trying to just the entire wheel in a polish or whatever. after rocking black wheels for a while you kind of have a tendency to want to go the opposite direction.

 

turbo will be in the back of the car. installed maybe that night.

i chassis braced first. then some minor engine stuff then springs and exhaust. now its power time.

 

I'm thinking about going the same route as you kyler. I want to see if they will have the kraftwerks supercharger for the GE which would be my last step after i'm done with school.

 

imho, done right black rims with a polished lip on the right car looks good:



as for pierce county, there is no "smog" in washington state. Your car just has to pass emissions, that's it. 9 times out of 10, they don't even pop your hood. Most newer cars don't even sit on the dyno, they just plug in the cord into the diagnosis plug and a few seconds later, you are done.

 

In washington new cars do not do emissions testing for 5 years I believe. Well I shouldn't say statewide but I know I do not have to do emissions until 2012.

 

that is very interesting. i know i never have to go through emissions cause im registered in kitsap county.


ekonetics im sure kraftwerk will have a supercharger out for the fit in a couple years but there is no mention of doing one now.

 

Mugen EP3 hub and Momo wheel arrived today

 

sounds sweet. so you still coming over in 11 days?

 

Planning on it. I likely won't have the J's installed but we could possibly get it done in Seattle if I have the cash flow. I will have to get it custom fabbed up though because the header deletes the cat so I need to get a custom built pipe to the axleback.

 

got some friends with welders if you got the pipe...
