7_rocket Build thread - Back to clean, simple and modest
Some not so exciting updates
- I replaced my Blitz Nur Spec exhaust with a Apexi Noir, which is much quieter.
- Have some feed carbon Fiber skirts on order.
- Will be replacing the hose clamps and couplers when I park the car.
- I'm planning on changing the rims next year. Thinking Volk CE28N, ZE40 and the Advan GT racing.
- My OEM 99 spec turn signals, the bulb burnt out and burned the housing. (Will replace with knock offs, can't be bothered to spend on lights that you can't really tell the difference)
Decisions....

I'll take a couple tomorrow. Nothing really special. I plan to powder coat a few parts under there

Car looks great, very clean and coherent look just how I like em. Side note: In that last pic of your car's side view, above the sky line there looks to be either a MiG-15 or a large predatory bird
Didnt realize tbe turn around tbat long. I want to say i got mine fairly quick.
As for the prosport gauges they are ok. Been having weird intermittent issues with my water temp gauge. Been going in and out.
I will prob get speedhunt or defi gauges for the wifes fd if i do gauges.

I need some help. I'm looking to replace the single din unit that came with the car to an update single din unit.
I realize pretty much all of them come with Bluetooth, so that's all I really want. And it has to match the amber interior.
Thanks in advance

Love the photo, the car looks really clean ...let me know if you need signal lights, I have a smoke Depo and a black one that will only work with the 99 bulb housings (3 prongs if I remember correctly).
Winter is here, car is parked until May. My Feed side skirts from Shine after waiting 20 weeks for them. Quality is great as usual
