Your car isn't an EK9, just an FYI.

I hate that front lip on a hatchback. Car looks stock though, welcome to the site


Pleas paint the grill asap, looks extremely ghetto when left black. Lips and side skirts would be a lot better painted too, especially that front.... stands out way too hard.

The rims im planning on getting is the Buddy Club p1 Racing SF Matte Black thats gonna have to wait till spring.(since i live up north [Snow])

And im waiting on the paint because im planning on painting the car more of a dark gray. But ill probly just paint the grill for now cuz its buggin me too.

What motor you guys think i should get? H22a or B18c
I really want the h22a but ppl say its to heavy but it does have more torque and power.

The weight is NOT a factor, so go from there.

I really think the P1's look a LOT better in 15's instead of 16's............ Just a though for ya

I am a fan of the wheels though.

The Buddy club P1's are nice, but the motor, i would go with B16b.... just because you want to build a CTR clone.

Yea i think i might consider into getting 15's im planning on putting Skunk2 throughout the whole suspension and chassis but thats later in my project. and i think im goin to stick with the h22 cuz my cuzin is getting an EG and he gonna put a B16 in his. Gonna see which one is better on the track =P (Maine Freeway)

Alryte so today was a busy day.

Got tints on i got home late so it was getting dark ill update the pic tomorrow its 20% all around.

(Love the sound) Deep tone rowr*. I prefer the sound of intake than the exhaust.

Thats all i did for today. Its gonna be going slow now since i got everything that i wanted so far. besides for the tein s-tech springs. wish it had a more drop to it =[. I already installed the front springs but not the rear because my bro tried loosening the lower control arm bolt and it snapped so we will be workin on that tomorrow and i will take pics and post hopefully.
