Hallo everyone, names Khiet, recently bought a pre-facelift EK for a good price and thought I may as well make a build thread as I’ve used the forums for sometime now and i enjoy reading other members threads. My plans for the car is to achieve a clean, subtle OEM look whilst working on the handling of the car.

So here she is,

After much scouring of forums, i finally found some reasonably priced ek4 front seats, only catch with them were they didn't come with rails, wasn't too much of an issue as ek1/ek4 are a straight swap. Big step up from ek1 to ek4 as they're a hell of a lot firmer and not as flat for your butt, would recommend these seats if you're looking to upgrade.

Also installed twinloop, enjoying them down shifts!

A muffler does not improve your handling.

Welcome mate!

Love ya avatar pic.

Give the throttle a blip/rev mid downshift to rev match.

start practicing,youtube has some videos on how to do it.

Nice ride btw!!

Don't leave me hangin' Ryan! :)

I can imagine how it would,just never thought of it as a handling mod.
