You have no idea how much I love this car.
I really wish you wouldnt change the colour though.
not really looking so much for hp goals as i am to getting it all together running solid but yea that would be a good start i guess lol still kinda new to the turbo stuff just been doing a lot of reading
yea its starting to look how i want tho it has a lot of cosmetic things you cant see in pics that need to get fixed im putting new quarters on it next winter from my immature days of half ass widebodies and molding @!#$ so the quarters are all messed up and the doors have a couple dents in them justa bunch of stupid little @!#$. as for the color i live on a dirt road and black is absolutly impossible to keep clean i need a lighter color and ive always wanted white with black roof and carbon hood and trunk but we'll see how it goes
I love everything!
Just needs better pictures.
The engine bay looks mint even if it is really dirty.
The color combo on the valve cover along with the strut tower bar is awesome!
Few questions after looking at your profile.
1. WTF mate! lacer side skirts? I was looking at these sides in the pics wondering what kinda sides they were and I was stumped, how did you make those work?
2. pics of the leather and suede wrapped seats? I have been wanting to to mine in black leather with some Red suede on sections, I would love to see your setup.
3. What type of paint did you use for the overflow tank? it looks good
i have posted a couple times and im very impressed to say your the first to ask about the sides. they are perfect length i didnt have to do anything more then any other sides to make them work the underside plugs i didnt use but the bolt holes in the wheels lined up too it was very odd. and my coolant tank i just scuffed it and used high temp paint its been good so far. ill try and get some pics of the interior up soon
i was sitting here wondering on the sides too. i always wondered what other cars sideskirts we could steal and use on the j.
Love it!!
How about you trade me that hks bov for my tial 50mm bov???
love this car! just wondering wat year lancer do those side skirts come off of? they look awesome! i think thatll be the one thing my car needed to finish the outside look
they came off an 02 oz rally edition i had them off my sisters car and held them up for @!#$s and giggles and they were perfect and sure enough a week later a set on craigslist for 50 bucks so thats what i did
why you wanna trade BOVs?
I need better pics of this car now! That lip kit / skirt combo looks tits on there.
* * BIG FOR SALE POST * *
what do you wanna see for skirt side pics? ill take pics of whatever
take any pics of those skirts! i just wanna see em better and how they fit! ive been searching with no luck for some :-(
Love it!!

I love the color scheme with the black and gold,it just looks clean and simple yet amazing. Plus I've always been a huge fan of the rk front lip.
love everything about it! black with bronze axis with machine lip. orange corners, lip, oz sides and 03+ rear bumper. looks amazing. like your valve cover and idi scheme. looks good bro!
thanks for the comments guys new paint will be happening very soon and im drawn between going white or redoing it black any opinions?
White would look mint!
I've been thinking about it myself.
But I think the black looks very good on your car
oh man... i must say ive never seen the rk sport 00-02 rear lip put on an 03-05 rear like that... im fugging diggin that BIGTIME!
side skirts i too was giving a big WTF on but damn... they do look good. nice find!
loving the bronze..never seen reverbs that color. very nice. and wtf front strut brace is that? never seen it before on a j....
i remember seeing pics of it awhile ago and being impressed, congrats on still doing it. this whole car is amazing. and the fact your turboing it goes even further i think i speak for everyone when i say screw specific pics.. just take more in general. LOTS in fact. DO IT.
only stuff i dont like is the placement of the front license plate. i think if your going to use one at least put it in the middle. needs the front radiator support cover to.
ps: leave that ish BLACK. it suits it so well
**** edit... i just read you want to do it in white because you think black is impossible to keep clean etc.. well sure that is true but white is just as bad IMO... i keep my car spotless and i can drive it for 50 miles and park in in the garage and see the dirt on it, its horrible. you would think white would be easy to maintain, but believe me... its not.

I'm tired of wasting my time... now I'm breakin' free.
Keep the black and bronze!
I like everything about this car, especially the fact you're going turbo.
Nice car.

zyaaaa- hearing any compliments from you is awsome cause you have one of my fav cars on here because of your attention to detail something i hope to someday be good at lol. yea the rear lip thing i didnt like it on the 00-02 bumper because it sits higher then the rest of the lips?? this bumper stock sits lower so the lip on this gave it more of a leveling effect that i was looking for. the strut brace i got in a whole slew of @!#$ i got from a guy in mass for rediculously cheap so i painted it and threw it on. i wish i had a nicer camera and you guys could see the horrible flaws it has but hopefully soon they will all be takin care of. if i redo it black its not going to be the light metallic black it is now its gonna be BLACK!!! but i must say your car is like top 3 reasons i want it white love white and carbon.
punkerest-thanks man yea idk how soon that whole thing will be going down but i got the stuff in the pic for damn near nothing and its all really good shape (turbo is new he paid 740 for it) and im ordering my wastegate this weekend.
ben- CANAAN?!?!? dude im half hour from there wtf????? we need to get together soon
