Great looking car man, I'm not a big fan of the EK style but it still looks real good.
Sorry I haven't had much time to take that pic of the CAI, but I'm going to set an alarm on my phone tonight to take a pic when I get home from class lol
I'll make sure to follow this thread, love the vc. I'm conflicted on which color to go with mine though.

Thanks man. That's cool about the CAI, whenever you get around to it. As far as your valve cover, I really like Spoon yellow, but you can never go wrong with red wrinkle. Your current blue isn't too bed either. Just remember, 90% of the paint job is in the prep work. Take your time and it will turn out great.

Its cool man. I can't speak for DeathMalice, but I made mine myself. I started with this pic (click). Then I edited it. You can use any image editing software, even MS Paint will work. There are numerous tutorials on YouTube for reference.
Yeah I found a base image to work with and I edited it myself as well.
Washed all the road salt off my car the other day. I'm really starting to hate my eBay lips and grill. Any opinions on what I should do?
Also installed the side markers. Practice makes perfect.
Complete:
Sorry for the crappy night pics, but the iPhone isn't really good at taking them.
Hey nice job on the side markers. What did you use to make sure they were both in the same spot on both sides?
A ruler haha. I measured 155mm up from the top of the side molding to the bottom edge of some standard masking tape. I made sure the bottom edge was parallel to the molding. Then I measured 140mm from the point where the horizontal tape and the start of the fender intersect and marked it. Then I put a piece of tape vertically with the inside edge on the 140mm mark I made. The intersection of these two pieces was the center of the template.
Basically this:
P.S. I should be able to transfer the money to your PayPal this morning.
Yeah I'll be doing this to my car as soon as it starts warming up. And nice rims btw, I need to polish mine up lol.
And ok thanks man, my dad is gonna take the air intake to work to see if he can get a box that it'll fit in. Just send me an address sometime soon for where you want it sent.

Haha thanks, they were one of my better Craigslist finds. I PM'd you by the way.
b16 trans has a faster 4th and 5th (1-3 are the same)
ITR has dual synchros so thats a plus
the 98-01 ITR trans has a stupid quick final drive
If you plan on getting the 98-01 ITR trans, then i'd say sell the b16 one
but if you have the lsd b16 trans, to sell for a regular ITR, i wouldn't sell
Mine is a non-LSD B16 and I have a buyer who I can get at least $550 from. There is a guy in Maryland with a '98 JDM ITR trans(LSD, 4.7 FD, dual synchros) for $700. As long as the buyer for my trans comes through, I think I'm going to go for it.b16 trans has a faster 4th and 5th (1-3 are the same)
