Nice, but be sure to also get 97+ side moldings to fill the gap between side skirt and door for a complete look.

Alright fellas, been a while since ive updated this build. here's a few pictures of whats been going on as of lately


RIP old SC


brought the new SC home (95 DWP SC400)


Swapping over what i needed to and removing what was worth salvaging


put the lip and the sides on from the old car


ditched the emblems


Banged out a nasty dent i had


Everything all primed up


recently did the fog light mod for the 95-96 models


picked up a set of XXR 521's last week. going to polish them or possibly paint the face gold and just polish the lip (18x8.5 +25)

Recent purchases:
-BC coilovers
-Daizen rack and pinion bushings
-poly sway bar bushings
-poly bushings for the upper and lower front control arms

coming within the next month or so:
-set of tires (225/45/18) going for the beefy look with these
-car will be painted
-overhaul on the interior hopefully, if not the whole interior ill just do the roof liner.

wheels and coilovers should be going on this weekend and i might pick up a 97+ front bumper

In for the wheel pics...I've seen a few members with those wheels-look pretty good in my opinion. Thx for sharing!

225's on those wheels will look normal. Maybe a little stretched depending on the tires. I run 245's and I think they look sort of stretched.

wheel update*****






just showing the wheels on 225/45 fitted on the front and rear. thinking about spacers for the rear only, somehow to me the quarter comes out wider than the fender. and i picked up 215/40's for the front. the 225's gave them a little stretch. let me know what you guys think

whats up everyone, just a little update.
got he coilovers installed over the weekend and painted the OEM lip back to black. planning on rolling fenders and quarters to clear for alignment to eliminate camber sometime this week. if anyone from MA is going to the mass-tuning meet in boston this weekend ill be there. thinking about doing a graffiti bomb on the quarter i have primered right now. thinking about throwing on a layer of base and pearl, then graffiti, then clear.

btw, pics will be up as soon as i can borrow a better quality camera
