Fame's O4 Evo Rs 2.0LR build thread
 
04 rs with 12,874 original miles bought it from my cousin on 10/17/2011. she's was living the bum life the entire time just sitting in his garage. until i talked him into it selling to me. it was all stock besides the full turbo back exhaust, ebay fmic kit. That day came and now shes been living the best life possible... i'll let the pictures do the justice.

Paul, Thanks for the pic!

always was a fan of bbs wheels. so i had to get me a set.

http://i62.tinypic.com/2ug11f9.jpg
at this point, alot was done bbs wheels, hood pins, red sparcos, 4 point harnesses, paint matched harness bar, amber side markers, tein springs for a perfect angle drop, buschur race fmic,uicp,tial bov etc....

http://i60.tinypic.com/34pc8zc.jpg
so at this point.. i had issues with DMV towards the paperwork but luckily everything checked out.. plus a little surprise :)

http://i60.tinypic.com/6ishw4.jpg
after getting that license plate... i knew it was going to be trouble. so, i needed something to back that plate up on special occasions (50 Gallon tank+reader gauge) since theres no e85 stations in town nears one is about 40-50 miles.

I'll save the good stuff for another day. until then enjoy!!

Only 12k miles?! Sh*t, nice pick up! I wish the WWIXRS I picked up last year had that little miles & not 60k!

Yup, only 12k :). I started my build at 13,500 at the moment she's reading 17k.

Dam talk about low mileage I can't wait to see where she ends up. What did you pay just out of curiosity

Mistaken May 12, 2014 10:10 AM

Lol she's been fully built at 13,500k. Haven't really had the chance to start a build thread ever since until now... I paid about $10K plus traded 03 rsx type s, new paint, motor, all Jdm out etc.

Thanks, it's been built ever since 2011. Let's just say she's exactly where I wanted her to be :).

Thanks man, plan was when I got her just do bolt ons. But everyone knows how that always ends up. I wanted something that could play with 1000cc's on the weekends. She hasn't disappointed me yet! I'll update the pics. when I get a chance this week.
