bboykwiks build/photo thread 08 lancer gts ww

Since I have seen my friend's build thread on accordtuner.com, I was wondering "why not I make my own build thread" as well.


courtesy to my friend Julius De (doobie ashtray) LOL!



Engine:
Injen Cold Air Intake 2.0L
RRM Lightweight Crank Pulley

Interior:
2-6 inch Red LED lights under the dashboard
400 mm Broadway mirror

Exterior:
Yakima Roof rack with fairing
DDM 9006 6000k HIDs
RRM Carbon Fiber Bumper Cap
RRM Carbon Fiber Splitter (currently off because of my ride height)

Suspension/handling:
Megan Street Coilovers
XXR 522 17x9 +25
Falken ziex-502 215/40/17

Yup, this basically what I have done with my car as of now.


Future Mod:
DC Sports Ceramic Headers
Recaro bucket seats
Sparco Harness Bar
Takata or Sparco 4 point harness belt
Works rear sway bar
Greddy Ti-C axleback
Advans RS wheels

Hopefully in a couple of years, I will try and get these mods onto the car.

surprised the wheels are 17s..they look like 18s, can you go any lower with the coils or do the wheels poke out too much?

thanks. haha i was thinking about taking the fender vents off, but also the vents are there to kind of complete the looks for the side, or else it just looks really plain. haha

with the bike rack, i use it once in awhile, and being trendy too LOL! and the bike rack isn't really mine, i am just borrowing from a friend because he is rebuilding his car, and found his bike rack to use.

i only rolled the rears.

haha yup, i do use it once in awhile when i go mountain biking. as for my coilovers, i can go lower by taking out the rings. In the picture though, that is maxed out. I do have some poke, probably like an inch. I just want to take maybe a ring off so i can have it sit and cover the tires a little more.
