hey guys, i just lowered my car, sprayed the rims black and the rocker cover red! yes i know, the rims are ugly but i thought if they are black it'll look a little better or jdm so i sprayed them! :D cant afford rims atm loll
let me know what you guys think ive got a before pic aswell..
i love it ... but heres some advice =D
- lower it on some tein s-techs or something
- do the EK hatch sideskirts mod
- get amber corners + blacked headlights from ebay
- paint those wiper arms matt black (hi-temp spray pack)
- relocate accelerate cable to EK position
engine bay looks nice and clean and i love those wheels
check out my build thread man =D
thanks mann :D
yehh i was looking through your d15 thread and was impressed!!! you did a great job. and i love the ek skirts, gna look into some. i was going to get the mugen style frontlip but i think shes abit too low for that now :(
is it easy to relocate the accelerator cable?
also, u kno all the blue cabling in ur d15 engine bay, are they actual performance modifications or just coloured cabling? sorry im abit of a noob, im just interested in changing some in my engine bay..
oh and.. lol, where did ur wires and cables go after ur wire tuck? into the panels or something? :S
nah the wiring harnesses are just tucked behind the strut tops
and i just cleaned and have hidden the others as best as possible
i also removed alot of brackets and junk that wer not needed
tucking the acc cable is easy ... remove all the brackets and turn it over so that it runs behind the battery instead lol
the blue cables coming from near the battery is a pivot razin earthing kit ... noticed a difference on my EG8 ... didnt notice a difference on my teg
the 10mm ignition leads gave me cleaner + stronger ignition
the OEM rocker cover earth was going to die so i replaced it with a better quality thicker guage
so all in all its a bit of both bling/performance
btw ur car doesnt look low at all in those pics ... mine is a 1.5" drop and its lower than that ...clearance is fine for the lip - anymore than 2" and u might have to stress
also the 4 point rear strut and 2 point front strut made a big difference ... the OEM front chassis brace is pretty average
(yes theres a difference between 'chassis' and 'strut' brace ... the honda ones arnt 'strut' braces)
also either paint ur rocker cover hi-temp matt black or get some ebay headers too - headers are a nice torque boost on stock engine
I like it. I'm a big fan of the EH since I have one myself. Are those Enkei rims or am I not seeing it properly? lol
Like the paint jobs mate. Lookin good
