OMGHi2u!! MY EK COUPE!!! 209 represent!

[Declectic]

My EM1 Bitches!!! just a sarcastic title to you morons that call coupes EKs

anywho .. check my CC garage in my sig for pics and mods list of what my car use to have if you care

So bascially I parted out and sold EVERYTHING off of my car to put it back to bone stock in hopes of selling it. So here is how it looked after I put it back to bone stock (like any other EM1)

Due to unforseen circumstances (and my stupidity) I'm forced to keep it and still a broke ass. I figured if I'm keeping it, I'm going to at least lower it!! So I picked up some Nuespeed Race springs (2.25" front / 2.00" rear) assembled to the stock shocks (less work when install) for $50 (thanks anek).

After I lowered it, I rejoyced with a lil photoshoot! Enjoy!!

all pics taken in my hometown stocktizzle!! 209 represent)

FLAME AWAY!! (if you can, s**t its ALL STOCK!!) lol

Only thing I Plan on doing is repolishing out the Si rims and just keeping the motor up to par. any extra cash for it will just go to suspension for the most part (after i get a different clutch, stock clutch sucks ass!!)

hows it ride compared to the skunks? I had neuspeed race on stocks for like a week on my accord and it rode like complete ass. Id hit railroad tracks and the car would still be bouncing 2 blocks later.

You do know that you have to break them in, my skunk2's bounced like crazy the 1st few days, I was pissed, but after about a week it was tight as hell, and now it rides lika king w/my bilstiens

Nice SI BTW

[Zak8022]

that looks pretty good daniel... for stock, yea.

sucks that your plans to sell it havent followed thru yet. i'm sure something will work out. it does look so so so so so much better lowered. that side pic while it was stock was just scary lookin.

 

[Akuma]

son of a b***h! daniel i hate you now.... after i lowered my car i wasnt happy with the drop. i wanted it to be lower and i though about getting the neuspeed race springs... after seeing that drop i now have a renewed interest in them

anyone wanna swap neuspeed races' for tein s.tech's?

 

[child_racer]

man....your ride looks whack as hell now JP....

 

[BlackHopeDC5]

what do you use and how do you polish your si's rims i want to polish mine too

it's alright... a lot softer than my old skunk2's. They're not as stiff though. I'm just happy the car is lowered, this does it and provides a decent ride

sexy sexy sexy.
you plannin on putting the cf lip on or did you sell it?

yok's probably gonna buy my Si lip off of me, gonna use that money to give to my girl's dad to fix the mugen lip, and i'll put the rear lip back on as well. i didnt sell those!! that rear lip is RARE!

I have yet to polish up the rims, they nasty as hell right now

do u have a camber kit Dan?? as always awesome pics...

nah... never use to. but with these springs i may add 2 washers in the rear (camber trick) because these springs dumped the rear too!

that looks pretty good daniel... for stock, yea.

in a nutshell, car is worth 12,000, due to refinancing the car for money to repairs n such, i kind of went right back where i started, and i owe about 13,000 right now. In order for the new buyer to receive the pink slip to the car, the bank loan has to be paid off in full. So at this point I figured I'm forced to keep it, but I'm okay with that cuz i really like my car a lot

Amazingly enough . . . (and frustrating as well) after lowering it again, I recieved a call (first one actually) from some guy inquiring about my car. Gonna give him a call tomorrow and let him in on all the good/bad thats happened to the car. I'm not gonna lie about it.

thanks for all the compliments ayone !!
