My Car is Finally DONNNEEEE

1 comments
Well, the day I've been waiting for has finally arrived. I've been anxious since September last year to get all this done and it's finally finished!
Started off by dropping the wheels to Lorne and Bob at Urban Expressions to get mounted at 1PM



Then I mounted them at Diana's house quickly and adjusted camber and such to get them to fit to at least roll around properly without any problems. The only thing is that the rears pop the rear bumper sides out.. so I just need more camber. I then headed to Speedtech to get the Spoon S-Tai diffuser installed with Paul's crazy skillz




The diffuser in all its minty glory




Most of the illmotion crew, Mike, Al and Aldrich all came to chill too.


Paul finishing up the install


And finally the finished product. After 6-7 months of spending, waiting and work.. it's all done. Now all that I'm left with is scraping, rubbing and headache... but it's fucking worth it! haha



Sorry I have no pics of the fitment and side pics, but I'll get those tomorrow hopefully! Until then, think of this as something to wet your appetite!

Back to the Future

Reeewinddd!!!
So, I miss summer so much and I miss how my car looks during the nice seasons that I decided to go back and dig up some old ass pictures from the beginning and the phases it has gone through.
From the beginning you can see my crappy ass photo skills with a lame 8 year old Canon 3.2MP P&S to some of my better pictures. To be honest, I would never want to revert the car back to how I got it on the first day haha.. EMBARRASSING.

Day one. Cleaned, polished, waxed.


First summer
HFP Front lip, HFP rear lip, Mugen Style Sideskirts, Tint, Greddy Ti-C, F&F Type II Coilovers, WORK black lugs, TWM M1 Abrams knob, JDM FD2 Shiftboot, Nokya 3000k DRL, Eurolite 6000k HID's
Work Emotion XT-7
17x7 +43


Next season
Got the Recaro SRD's from ITR, Carbon Fiber trunk, VHT tinted tails, RAYS red lugs, New kicks
Gram Lights 57 Maximum
17x8 +45


Previous season - 2009
Nardi 330mm deepcorn steering wheel, HKB Hub, NRG quick release, Weapon-R Testpipe and Downpipe, T1R purple lugs, another set of new wheels Volk TE37, this time FWD stagger
17x8.5 +40 (F)
17x7.5 +30 (R)


Shot of the interior and how it used to be. Plain Jane and super boring.


Spiced up with the Recaros (note the Mercedes Terrell Signage) and the Nardi wheel


With that said, I got rid of the TE37's again and got a new set coming, stepping the sizing up again and trying to keep up with the crazy game that everyone is starting to get into. Got a few new exterior pieces to add and some new legs for the car to squat low on. Be sure to check in once spring hits! I'll have a sick photoshoot once I get all the stuff on.
