    06 dc5s

    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

    Looking good mate. Toda is some of the best money can buy. Put it to good use.
    Lisa is a nut. She has a rubber butt. Everytime she turns around it goes putt putt.

      Nice pick up on the toda headers. Bro bc br ain't even stiff haha. My set are on max stiffness and it feels just a tiny bit stiffer than stock. The car is part of who you are, if the gf can't handle then tell her to walk. Hehe :P

        Haha bro, not at all. But when you come from a camry, I don't blame her :P and I felt like i was wasting them aswell. I drive way too much and I'm always the one offering to drive, I just hate relying on others! Lol.
        for now I'll just preserve it for the track in the future (hopefully)

                        just a minor update, and its not good either.

                        Just got arrived home from getting my car cut and polished. Car looked sweet when I picked it up but once I arrived home and had a comprehensive look I wasn't happy at all. Burning so hard atm. Parts of my tail were missing paint, over buffed and damaged.
                        Even my mirrors are damaged, like how do you do that? Half assed job all around aswell, car's interior wasn't cleaned nor polished properly. Will post pics in a bit.

                        P.s was a place at Dandenong Plaza. Those who live in the south east will probably know which place I'm talking about.

                        what do ? returned and they were already closed
