MR :EJ8: I Just Got My First Period! 56k..Nope!

[MilanoRed_EJ8]

Here's the daily driver / beater / grocery getter. The truck is in the foreground. Nothing special done to it, boost is coming as soon as I finish the slave motor. Rocking the SOHC !

The car came back from the shop yesterday night, full PPG paint job, that I got an unbelieveable deal on. I have to wash and clean and polish the blades, and yes I need a damn lug. Pictures probably suck ass, but I have not had enough time for a shoot, if I merit one. But there will be a next post.

So far my "mods" are:

- Type R Replica 96-98 Front Lip
- Type R Replica 96-98 Rear Lip
- CTR Replica Grille
- Greddy Full Catback (Minus Cat), Angled Slightly
- Catco High Flow Cat
- Fujitsubo 4-2-1 Header
- Injen RD Series Cold Air Intake
- OEM Stanley JDM Sidemarkers w/ Harnesses
- Powdercoated Cast Aluminum Engine Cover & Misc Under Hood Parts
- Brembo Cross Drilled & Slotted Rotors
- Skunk 2 Front Camber Kit
- Rear Camber Kit Trick With Washers
- Goodrich SS Lines
- ATE Superblue Fluid
- Hawk HPS Pads
- OEM Type R Door Panel Inserts
- Sony MP3 Headunit w/ MP4 Convertor
- GSR Blades on Dunlop FM901 Sport 205/55/15
- Tein Super Street Damper
- 25% Tint All Around
- Full Rockford Fosgate Speakers
- 800Watt Pioneer Amp
- 760Watt Pioneer Sub, Ported Enclosure
- Rockford Fosgate & Lightning Audio Amp Kit
- Avital 4300 Remote Start Alarm w/ Trunk Pop
- JDM Fogs, wired correctly
- PIAA Fog Bulbs
- Nokya Yellow Headlight Bulbs
- White Gauge Faces
- 96-98 OEM Headlights, Painted GUNMETAL, tinted JDM yellow.
- Along with other misc. little s**t here and there.
- Running Full synthetic for 10k miles now.

Yea, I know it's probably little s**t compared to some cars on here, but I like it the way it is.

I plan to:

- Fab a Cybernation turbo kit, or just bolt on a greddy kit for a d-series motor, plans are to make at least 325whp to 375 whp, on built internals, and methanol injection.
- Completely build motor: sleeved, pistons, rods, studs, what ever i need to.
- OEM Audi HID retrofit
- Full Recaro Interior
- Full JL speaker system with custom sub enclosures in trunk.
- Get some bronze wheels.

just to let you know that is not a 96-98 oem rear lip

the car looks clean but i dont know about the red/yellow contrast

 

[ryanM]

[OMGWTFLOL]

holy s**t thats nice...those headlights are CRAZZZZY!

 

[MilanoRed_EJ8]

yeah sorry i was thinking about it and just typed it, its a type R rear lip.

yeah oem headlights, it's tint, and can be removed.

and again, headlights are just something for a little while. just had to go crazy a bit.

 

[DaGFTDOne]

Yellow headlamps....

 

[cgpEJ6]

a carbon fiber hood would be super hot on there, also I'd ditch the GReddy emblem.

Turned out clean man. I was actually thinking about doing my headlights in yellow, like the skunk2 civic and yours but now I'm kind of glad I didn't. I still think the color would look good, but probably against a black car.
