well, ive never posted my car here so here it goes... btw car needs a bath
just got some new goodies and got some pictures so i figured id share with you guys... heres a few i took tonight at the gas station here on base while i was checking tire pressures
the wheels 17x8 and are made by VES sport? haha ive never heard of them and cant find anything on google, but theyre light and they look like rota boosts which is what ive been trying to get for a while... the only damage at all is a small chunk out of the lip of one of them and i plan to blend it out... they came wrapped in some dunlops that ive never heard of and have about 25% tread left, sooo the wife and i got a full set of new kumho 711's for a steal... we got the whole wheel/tire/tire package for ~$475!!!!
close up
whats that i hear? is that a new exhaust?? haha i ended up getting a 3" axleback from kakimoto made for a wagon, so its a few inches longer, but i plan on cutting out the section where the pipe goes down to 2.5" and weld it back together
here you can see how far it sticks out for now
the offset of the wheels is +38 which brings them out flush with the side of the car... mmmmm yummy
blitz blm boost gauge ive had for a while now... absolutely freakin love it!! been wanting one since they first came out and im taking it with me when i get rid of the car haha... since my buddy and i fabbed up the midpipe the boost peaks at 1.5bar(~22-23 psi)... now im looking at downpipes hehe
quick little photo shoot around base
the drivers side door has that smudge on it b/c a bird decided to use my car for target practice and when i went to clean it off the rag i had was used for wax a while back and i havent had time to clean it lol
here one of my favorite little mods... you can see it in some of the other pictures... i bought it from autobacs for about $38... it comes in a role and you can stick it anywhere on the car using 3m doublesided tape... ive even seen some people use it to make front canards!! you can also see that my paint needs a little cleaning up... hopefully itll warm up soon so i can take care of that!
and a quick sneak peek at the new tires... should last a few thousand miles haha
in the last few months ive also added a blitz boost controller, momo steering wheel, apexi turbo timer, HAD a BRIDE bucket seat but its out now, new headlight and fog light bulbs, swapped cusco coilovers for megan racing track coilovers, new brakes, kartboy short shifter, sti industries carbon fiber front strut tower bar, 10" pioneer sub enclosure and 300 watt pioneer amp, and the 3" midpipe my buddy and i fabbed up a while back
thanks for looking
