[joe1231]

hey guys i finally got my first ek hatch and wanted to know what you guys think.

before cleaning it

will be posting engine bay and more pics soon. let me know what you guys think of it. thank you all

 

[ekcoupe98]

looks clean!
what are your future plans??

 

[joe1231]

dont got to do to much lol. already has a swap. b18c5, i wanna change the exhaust from greddy to apexi, i like the quietness of the apexi. also probably put skunk2 manifold. drop some circut 8 on it. full type r interior and paint it. for now, any suggestion on any plans would help. open to hear anything

 

[ekcoupe98]

deng thats a clean start...just exterior parts i would say
like lower control arms, tie down, subframe bar, sidemarkers, CF duckbill??

 

[joe1231]

more pics

good suggestion. definitively want the duckbill. and i want to do all the maintenance first make sure it doesnt give me no problems. then buy anything i need for the outside before i paint. and thanks hopefully it doesnt give to much problems. so far so good. i love driving it its super quick and rides very smooth.

 

[joe1231]

also planing to install OEM yellow fogs sometime next week

 

[ekcoupe98]

what kind of suspension.
you should put hids on the fogs huge difference!

 

[joe1231]

has tein all around. and great advice. right now headlights have 8k hids.

 

[ekcoupe98]

the em2 has oem yellow fogs and mines have 3k hids...big difference!

Very nice! Looks like she needs a good buffing though...sort of fading it seems.

 

[joe1231]

thank you LowNSlow97 yeah she does lol. but ima jst wait till i get everything i want for the outside. like the window side marking and my foglights. to paint the whole car. i dnt really like the black hood. plus i was thinking a deep red like burgundy color with some nice gold circut 8's would look amazing so that what i plan.

and nice ekcoupe98 im definitely going to put hids on the fogs. looks real good in your car and stands out 10x more over regular fog lights

how much u pay for that beast

 

[wicho]

[Blazze]

looks great!! im planning on getts=ing fogs soon gives a car so much character

 

[joe1231]

i got it for 4800. it has its little things like a door panel and needs paint. other then that i have yet to find a big problem. knock on would i wouldnt want nuthing lol but so far am very very happy with my purchase. very fast yet reliable.

and yeah fogs givfe it a great characteristic. like ekcoupe98 said ill probably put hids on the fogs when i get them.

thanks everybody for ur comments. keep it coming

 

[ekcoupe98]

yea man keep it posted on pictures!!

you should paint the valve cover too!!
i just did mine today!

 

[Decipher]

I like it just the way it is. What % is your tint dude? s**t is nighty night!

 

[joe1231]

ok so i noticed today that my car smells alot like gas, it has no leek anywhere. could this be my fuel air ratio?

 

[ekcoupe98]

is the smell always there??
or when your punching it?

 

[zachkelly]
