Well There it is, hope you like. Let me know what you think, Should I co with the Accolade Evo VIII Conversion Kit? I am seriously thinking about it.

Like someone said early, it's Silverstreak's car. He has a full Kaminari kit and Enkei OR52 Wheels 18x8.5.

Nice car, BUT:

You definately need to upgrade the brakes!

To me it just looks funny because you have an EVO spoiler, a harness, and those big wheels with those tiny tiny brakes (You can barely see them throught the wheels).

IMO: If you are gonna run larger wheels the brakes should at least be viewable:



If you ever plan on taking the car to the track good brakes are vital!




B/c of good brakes I was able to run this 997 Porsche down, but a stupid civic crossed the blending line and I had to shut down letting the Porsche get away

New brakes are in the works. I have plans to change the rear drums to disc and to increase the dia of the front disc. I hope to find a kit that will allow me to change out the single piston calipers for something with a little more pressure. Slotted and drilled rotors would look so much better than the ones that are on ther right now.

As for taking this car to the track, so far it is Autocross only. I don't have any engine mods yet, so there really is nothing special except looks for now. When my Warrenty expires then i will start to mod the engine and drive line.

Thanks for the input!
L8R, Jay

Slotted rotors are good, but I would stay away from drilled. They develop spider cracks.
