Hey im new here, just wanted to share some pics.. Know its not your style with your JDM conditions, but let me know what you think. Plans for this summer is to completly remake this car. Stock rearbumber with lip, JDM tails, Clear "jdm" black headlights with jdm ambers, volk or work rims 16". And a kopper/bronze/gold color instead. But here is what it looks like atm.

Flame away:hammer: And as i said, it will be totally re done for the summer for a more clean look, but as for know, this is the "trend" in Scandinavia.

Looks like a good project.... I don't think it looks too forible like it is but I would tone it down a bit. The huge chrome rims gotta go.....

Good Luck and I hope you achieve your desired results.

you got ARP headstuds? with that setup you could easily top those injectors out with a decent turbo. i would recomend a .48 .60 60 trim. fast spooling and support 350 horse. get some 750cc injectors, retune and call it a day. then go drive over a few curbs and rip that back bumper off. dont you just hate it when someone molds shit.

No dont got the ARPs, but Im buying Crower Cam, AEM adj. cam gear, Crower valvetrain (as for now), and then Im also getting the ARPs. I would like a bigger Turbo after that, Im thinking a GT28 with a 25 exhausthouse should do the trick ?? I got both stock rear and front laying around. Im deff changing the rear (and adding a lip), but I think I will keep my front bumber (the white one, not the blue one) and my sides. Why would you get 750cc they are a bit to big imo.

As for the tranny. The DX works fine for me on the highway, and doing Qerts how much do you really need your 4. gear to be 200rpms lower...

Got the new lips

Got the new Megan 2,5" catback (even if its not 2,5 ALL the way :bull: )

Well, tryid to install the catback yesterday. Had forgotten to order a cat replacement, so i thought i was lucky when my friend had one from his B-series I could have. But shit doesnt fit, it's missing like 3 inches at the last bend to go over the axel?? How can this be when a B cat is longer than a D? Whell, since Megan already have made a 1,5" flance at the flances to the rear pipe i'm gonna cut that of so i can have 2,5" all the way.

Buttom line... I only got my midpipe exchanged (old one was 2") and put my old Apexi n1 back on. Damn it spools much better now!! Cant wait to next week when we are gonna make a 3" dp...!
