I need to make a Custom carpet for rear of my da9 with rear seat removed and leaving rear interior pannels on, just want carpet to go from were the carpet stops under the front of the back seats all the way to the rear( with a door cut out of the carpet over the fuel pump), will have a custom boot floor and carpet will have to go over the boot floor, Ive got the black carpet so just wanted to know were u guys would recomend getting the extra black carpet needed to match the rest?
All ideas are appriciated

Also , I don't like the sunroof, but I don't want to bog it, is there an alternative to the electric sunroof? Anyone done a custom? What I'm thinking is a manually opened and closed sunroof, should take a poo load of weight off if done properly, just don't know if it's possible , idea's ?

Cheers

hey guys are we able to go 16x8 with 0 offset on our da9s?

im running 15x8 0 offset, have camber arms in the rear.
i think im running neg 4.5 - 5.5 degrees in the rear..
front is natural camber..

i think 16s would be alot better though, 15 make the car sit way to low on the ground..
i sometimes hit lil reflectors on the lines of the road with my resinator when i sometimes switch lanes
its annoying lol..

thanks man good info on that yeah planning to go 16x7 xxr 513,

[kikxz]

well 16x8 with 36 offset is running fine with no scrubbing or anything... 0 offest youll need as prev said camber arms stiff suspension and prob stretchies ..... your fronts will be a squeeze i reckon massive camber tho itll look wicked tho



also what happend to the DA-crew website its full of ad bots?

yeh guys im really busy so if anyone wants to b a moderator fo the forum, let me know id b happy to do that, the forum wasnt getting used much, which is a shame because i have loads of items for sale to.

as for the wheels i run a 16x7 with +15 offset they sit out by 1 inch front and rear at stock ride height, ive just bout to drop it with some konis, and im hoping it will just nicely tuck into the wheel arch, there is a pic of a white da integra with 15x8 with 0 offset, this thing doesnt drive around much at all because of the stance... looks sick though

and for the sunroof ive seen carbon panels made up and then stuck into place, drops alot of weight out and looks quite neat, i know on g2ic.com you can also buy a cf roof skin, this means u can either cut the roof metal skin off and leave the surports in place, and then glass the panel into place or u can put the skin over the top of the metal roof

To start with I was thinking if there was a way to remove the most if the sunroof and try to make it a Manual open/close only, but I also really like the replacements fo the glass, wish there was an alternative to c/f tho, they want like near $5oo for the c/f cap!!

I've owned my teg for 3 years and my sunroof has never worked, so I took it out and opened it up too see if anything looked wrong , the 2 gears were worn out and wernt coming into contact with the sunroo motor, called around and was quoted $300 to replace part, so I ended up with a parts car and there was one in it, so I took it out an installed it into my teg and on the first try it opened really fast, but then got stuck and wouldn't close, after ages and after pushing close button heaps it shut while being pushed .

I want to use the bloody thing,

piss me off man

[DA9-47]

cheers stevo, mad fake rep for u then !! Lolz
