Title is priceless bro haha! I'm in for updates and good story telling!

 

Thanks man, gonna do my best with my budget lol

 

Seriously great title, and clean looking car bud. I'll be checking in

 

Thanks guys, doing what I can on a budget, I want to keep the car as original as possible, so I started first by taking out the black seats and out back the original tan seats, yes I know tan yuck, but I like the classy look of it maybe it's my old age getting to me even though I'm just 30 years old.


I ordered a new sr motorsports smic and got a great deal on a apexi intake , so gonna I sta those next week.


I also took off the nrg wheel that came with the car and I had a nice nardi wheel sitting in my garage so I out that on.

 

Is that wheel off a JDM Miata? Looks awesome. I also like a clean tan interior, and I'm only 26.

 

Not sure.
The inner wheels do say advance, but not sure what kind they are

 

*advan

 

I think the tan looks nice just gotta keep it clean.

 

Sorry meant the steering wheel

 

No its a aftermarket
Nardi Torino steering wheel

 

So picked up some used apexi intake from a local buyer, yes I know why a hot air intake I don't know why.
I did the cheap bastered mod to it and I left the oem airbox bottom and cut the bottom of it and took out the foam by the radiator, so I do hope I will get some kind of cold air .

I just get some RE smic piping also and I ordered a SR motorsports smic and I will be install it today.


Still not sure if I should put back my stock air box.


I'm going to cover the hole were the airduct for the intercooler meets the intake so all the air just hits the intercooler, I might just put some racing tape on it, not sure what else to use.




Hi guys!!!!

 

Take the bottom of the airbox out, it's just wasting space and preventing airflow.

 

Seats looked like they cleaned up nice, looking good Tim.

 

Even if I did cut the bottom of it were the only air gap space is for the cheap bastered mod?

Thanks man, took a magic eraser to then and about a hour later, put some leather cleaner and softener to them, they look night and day difference.

I should have ask if you had any other parts lol

 

I mean, everyone else runs it without the box, but if you're running the cheap bastard it may be beneficial. Certainly not aesthetic.

 

Ya it does not look nice, put I can just imagine all that hot radiator air blowing on the intakes.

 

This is how i want my fd to look! Amazing

 

Thanks man, I want to keep it super simple and clean, no crazy horsepower goals or anything.


Just swap in some new
Stoptech rotors and pads.
I also put in brand new stainless steel lines and motul dot4 fluid

 

wanna sell the duck spoiler?! is it carbon or frp?

 

It's Fiberglass.


So I've finally found a oem Bose radio, that comes in tomorrow. So I'll finally have some tunes.

I've been thinking of purchasing a fujisubo brk exhaust since the racing beat is so expensive, and no one has hit me up on the apexi exhaust for a trade.



I sold the sr motorsports smic and thinking I'm gonna go arc bling or blitz for more of a sleeper look in the engine bay, I also took off the apexi intake and jut out the stock box back on for the sleeper look, just ordered a wix filter for it.


The car also came with a hks ssqv black one.

I also ordered a aluminum radiator that I will replace the stocker with once I order or find a new smic so I can do it all in one shot.

Cars and coffee this week so I'll post up some more pictures

 

Newest update, wife dad not doing so well so been busy with family stuff.
But today I had some time to take off the old radiator and fender that was damage prior to owning the car to get it fixed.


Finally got the old radiator out,I had a crack on the bottom of the radiator so I needed to get a new onei ordered a brand new fluydine radiator so pretty pump and hoping it will be a smooth install


all out


Fender off woohooo it was actually super easy to take off.
My buddy friends said he can fix it for $60 bucks


Kinda of a big dent



Teaser coming soon.



Also picked up a blitz smic on Craigslist for a pretty good deal
