No.

Leave the lip black. White is tacky like said before.

1) You need the kouki sides and rear corners.
2) The JDM Kouki front is hella hotter. bump up.
3) Rear FNs to the front and 17x10s for the rear.
4) Needs more spacer
5) Needs more low.

No glaring problems like wastegate dump in the front bumper, you just need to kick it up a notch in a few places

haha the roads in nyc are horrible so i can't lower it anymore, i still bottom out in certain streets. so even right now its alittle too low.

i actually like hte usdm bumper better becasue it seems more complete.

and yeah i was thinkin about putting my 17x9's up front and buying 17x10's in the back, but the offset is not low enough. my rear offset is only 35mm.

but glad you didn't tear it up too much lol.

nice conversion, id say leave it black also, looks good. Got any engine pics? Its all about whats on the inside

XeVeNskyLiNE · #21 02-27-2006, 09:11 PM

I want to make babies with your car.

Seriously, I <3 a nice Kouki, even if its a converted Zenki.

About the crooked grill, take it out perhaps?

Must I take a picture of my drive way? Washed out gravel isn't really ricer friendly.

I think its too cluttered. And the up angle bothers me. it makes the car look higher.

That don't make no nevermind. They make 30mm Bolt-on spacers for a reason. (FN Face doesn't change for the 9s anyway.)

If you want some ballertown daily wheels you could get CSTs for 900$ shipped in 17x9.5 +15 18x9.5 +15.

Well... since you asked for it........

...nope, theres not much. I personally hate FNs and think the kouki bumper is better but whatever.

P.S. Windsheild banner is tacky. Make it smaller and one color or something.

TatII · #23 02-27-2006, 11:26 PM

yeah i want to take it off for a smaller one. i had that banner on for 4 years.

Chuki_breath · #24 02-28-2006, 07:29 PM

i like it. Keep it black. And your girl does look alot younger in that pic compared to the one in your avatar. She actually looks 23 in that one.

it all makes sense now. i saw your sig in another thread and i thought you bought a new car lol. But then noticed the windshield banner and fn's. So whats next on the list??

TatII · #25 02-28-2006, 11:17 PM

fixing htat leak in my a/c system. i'm a pussy, i need a/c. then i'm guessing its gonna be either a turboxs ignition thingy, ( i forgot what its called ) then probrably start saving up for internals.

XeVeNskyLiNE · #26 03-01-2006, 08:48 AM

People in NYC need air conditiong

Shiet I don't even got A/C and I'm in Tejas.

240SXSlideStar · #27 03-01-2006, 12:04 PM

Well I live even more north and I wouldn't mind having working AC, but I'm to poor to have it fixed. I rather buy coilovers then fix the AC, but if I had a girlfriend then I'd probably have to fix the AC. lol

David_NISMO · #28 03-01-2006, 12:13 PM

Damn, that's a sexy car. I've always liked white. So did you swap an SR or did you turbo the KA. I really like the KA-T's myself.

What's it like getting that car legal in NY? I was considering moving to the Albany area, but knew that my car would never be legal there.

TatII · #29 03-01-2006, 12:45 PM

i have a KA-T in my car, my car is actually registered in another state, but i still have to go thru a 3 gas inspection test. and me having no EGR means i have to cheat to pass. in nyc, it woul'dve been alot easier, i can just slip someone a $100 and they'll pass me no problem. and yes like i said, i'm a pussy, hahah i need my heat, and my a/c.

no point in driving a nice car in the summer if i'm gonna sweat my ass off in traffic suffering and stuff. i want my car to look nice, feel comfortable, and drive nice, that to me is the definition of a nice street car.

David_NISMO · #30 03-01-2006, 01:15 PM

I hear you there. Those Texans can forget how much Humidity can SUCK. Especially when you're just sittin there with no wind to cool you off.

Sounds like we have mutual goals. I wanted a car that was a pleasure to drive, luxurious on the inside, and a blast to take to the track. Turning a few heads is always a nice bonus as well.

Have you successfully bribed someone? What happens if you bribe someone who's not accepting?

And yes, I'd also love to see some engine bay pictures.
