Hey guys, after reading over a few builds threads, I was motivated to start my own!
So about three months ago, I was having a browse over carsales as we do and came across a milano red dc5s that caught my eye.
Few days later, I was over at the previous owners house signing over the papers.
She wasn't in the best nick (brake pads were worn, top part of the car's paint was fading and the struts were gone) but she was stock, which I was very happy with.
Anywho only engine mods I have so far:
-Injen CAI
Other:
BCBR coils - no longer have them on. I commute way too much and the gf is not happy! They just weren't practical for everyday driving so I reverted back to stock suspension.
Also, front is now sitting higher then the back as previous owner raped front struts so I replaced them with dc5r struts. Thank god they popped up at the right time and they were cheap so why not.
Things to add:
-headers
-high flow cat
-cat back exhaust
-kpro & tune
-wheels (regamaster, te37s?)
-aesthetic upgrades
heres some pics
fresh wash
really needs a good cut and polish which I'm yet to do. You can also see the difference in colour from the top. so much fades
Soon... toda headers and ep3 sway bar. Just waiting on a nice catback to pop up.
Mod List:
Engine:
Injen CAI
TODA Headers
Fujitsubo RM01A Catback
100 cel HFC (unsure of brand)
Suspension:
BC type RA coilovers
Aesthetics:
Chargespeed Lip Kit
Takata front tow hook
Benen iridium rear tow hook
6k HID kit - yet to be installed
Misc:
Viper 3706V alarm system
thats all for now
