    Fahad's DC5R

    Hi everyone! As some of you know my name is Fahad, I've been on ClubITR for about a year now since I've owned my dc5r. I should've made a thread a lonngggggggggg time ago but really haven't had time because work and uni have been too hectic.

    Well, I own an Arctic blue 2002 DC5R, bought it on 6th December 2011 with 92,000kms on it (yes i remember the date hahah). Had a few ups and downs with the car and also did consider selling it but that did change (don't know what i was thinking) and love it to bits <3

    The car is stock besides an injen cold air intake and an after market axel back muffler, it is my daily and i drive it to uni 3-4 days a week. Since I've been on ClubITR I've made a lot of new mates who share the same interest.

    Future plans:
    - Buy some coil-overs for it
    - Headers
    - exhaust
    - strut bars
    - Probably a tune so it runs all nice and smooth

    Photos of it's progression since i bought it till now:

    Day 1- looking rice as f#ck


    A photo where i carbon vinyl wrapped the bonnet and roof, removed those gay low springs:



    And now currently how she sits with type s rims with re001's bought off robin (gook-o-matik)....need to lower asap hahah


    Will be updating this thread as much as i can and hope to learn more about this car as i own it!

    Thanks for reading

              Hey ameer, I removed the lowered springs as Nathan said the ride was very very rough and since I drive it daily i didn't like it and it also damaged my coil tower. Plan to get coil overs so I can adjust the height while being comfortable.

                            UPDATEE!!!!

                            A week ago, i purchased some fog lights from ebay and they arrived on friday!! Got the time today and installed them with the help of Hau, Nathan and Shak (top mates). Only got a day time shot of them on at the moment, will post a photo during the night. Here it is now.

                            Will be purchasing coil overs very very very soon, any suggestions, thoughts, comments on coilovers? Budget will be around $1200

                            Here's some photos:
