Try using walnut. You can get it from the pet store for cheap (the sell it as pet litter, works just as well but alot cheaper). And pour some automotive polish into the media like nu finish.

time attack is black with a red stripe typically.

Benny, I may be selling my RP1s, talk to me about it when you see me at the next meet.

Glad the hot-pink Limited Edition IRP motor mounts were put to good use :lol:

in that picture i am using walnut but thanks for the tip about getting it at the pet store:icon_tup:

o0o i gotta try the nu finish.. havent explored with polish yet but was looking into it.. how approx how much do you put in?


yeah i know its typically red, just trying to give an example of how much of the "lip" would be white...

your rpf1 17 or 18?

hahah and yeah my limited edition neon pink IRP motor mounts are gangster! feel free to use them as advertisement bahahahahhahahahahahahahahah:lol::icon_tup:

enkei's for sure. I wouldnt go white myself, bronze or charcoal grey maybe.

gonna go enkei unless i find a really good deal use... they will get powdercoated matte black

for those sending me offers, i only want 17's! if u got 17's and selling, lemme know!

So what's the reason for 17's over 18's? My 18's have your name on them hahaha.

Is your oven big enough to powerdercoat rims? Or do you have to take rims somewhere special since they take a beating on the road?

idk if i really have a real reason lol.... i prefer the look of 17's lighter, + cheaper tires

idk if my ovens big enough.... i wouldnt do the rims myself tho...

minor update... rims sold, sold eibachs with intentions to get coilovers.... ended up getting tein s techs adn will be HOPEFULYL picking up a set of rims next week!

all is powdercoated except calipers... that should be done tomorrow and everything else should be assembled (minus rims)

deadline, ct extreme car show on sunday!

some updated pictures... went to a local car show and here are a few pics my friend snapped for me...

alternator broke as i failed to align the brushes correctly while i was putting it back together so ill need a new one.

UIM will come off to get powder coated pink

LIM manifold and turbo hotside will be coming off as well so i can ceramic coat them.

4" exhaust will come off as well so i can TRY to fab up the 3" to connect to the 4" downpipe... its short about 8 inches so ill need to get some piping and get it welded up..

also need to rebleed the brakes as they still feel a little soft

and hopefully next week will pick up my new set of rims!

thanks to dave for lending me his alternator off his car so i could make it to the show lol and dennis for lending me the rims ahhaa

Those Rims are BALLA!!
I should just give u my CCWs its not like im using those

ahahahah i know i gave em a quick wipe down and they were SHININNINGGGNGNG i love how they reflect the pink ahhaha

whats going on with your car?!?! its monday!!!

Whats the significance behind the pink?

no prob ben, thanks for letting me borrow your main fuse ;)

nothing... its different, no one really has it... it pops and i think it looks cool

You own a fd, you already have something different.

all my friends own fd's so not really... whyd u paint your car that red??

decided to add my fabrication projects in my build thread so ill continue in here...

so i failed already.... proportion were off...

center is 18" which should be 24"
width should be 6" wider on each side
the center "tunnel" opening should start an inch lower
tunnel should be .5" lower (more clearance)
depth will be cut 1"
middle rear thing? (inside of tires) should be 4" wider on each side..
the slant from the center opening and sides should add an inch to the angle..

sorry the wording sucks... camera is broken so i cant see what i take pictures of so you cant read my labeled diagram...

will proto type another one and see how it comes out...

few more pics...

Looks almost exact to the CC diffuser. I had one when I first got my FD. Best diffuser hands down...It just hangs so low you get clearance issues :(
