It's all in the detail...

[LuPix_S15]

Just thought that it would be nice to share some pics of details of mods I've done (also my favourite ones) as we mostly see and post pics which are just of the whole car :wack:

But really hope everyone else can join in and take snaps of detailed stuff - get up close and personal lol so we can all share and comment :thumbs:

Here's my lot anyways...

it sounds fantastic mate, really has to be heard to be beileved, i was running an alpine cda-7909j jdm cd player, imo the best money can buy

 

[pegliobaglio]

Fair play mate,alpine heads are virtually unbeatable in my eyes,and JL stuff is right up there too,just asking as I would personally have fitted the tweeters higher up,am thinking on the back plate of the door mirrors,but where you have them positioned looks really nice kinda oem! Are your tweeters directional?

Sorry to go off topic but I want those RE01R's! Do you have to get them sent over from elsewhere or can you get them in the UK. They are R888's but better in my eyes.

I've never tried to get hold of them in the UK mate, come with a full set on the car when i imported it

I'm gonna try the Advan Neova AD08 when these ones are done.

 

[LuPix_S15]

Nice updates guys!!


lol 'Jimmy Up' Umbrella Girl is an all time classic now :thumbs:



No worries Craig - the whole point of this thread is for everyone to comment and ask about the detailed stuff

 

[craig8585]

Here are a couple of my pics. Some are new, some old, and all totally random!

 

[LuPix_S15]

Those Work nuts look like new mate!! Do you wrap the inside of the socket in tissue before they get removed lol?! Not a scratch on them (unlike mine)

 

[craig8585]

Hahaha!! No, but I'm mega careful! Especially as they cost over £100 for the set AND I've somehow lost the locking nut key!! Just ordered 2 new ones from Work USA though and only cost $55 delivered. Thought they were going to have my pants down for them!

 

[LuPix_S15]

Ah no way?! Well it does look like you're extremely careful when removing lol

Here's my contribution. Just realised I've never really wrote or posted anything on my car till now. Will probably do sometime soon. Here's a teaser to my almost 2 year old S15

 

[craig8585]

Nice! I like the dry carbon cooling panel. Is it a GD one with vinyl wrap?

 

[TriniGT]

Dry Carbon looks so stealthy, wish I had access to those items. Will take some pics of my S14.5 but I ain't no phototakeouter. Maybe you all should also list the camera that was used to take the pics as some do give high detail. It may be vinyl wrapped though as the left door handle trim is also carbon overlayed as I have not come across them too being available in CF.

 

[craig8585]

I just use a Canon EOS 400D with the standard 18-55mm lens. To get a good depth on the photos (blurry foreground and background) use high zoom and get the focus on the bit you want to emphasise

 

[Cross]

Yeah i did a carbon wrap on the cooling panel as well as the door handle trim. Centre console and armrest too. Unfortunately the wrap on the cooling panel doesn't last as it starts to bubble up with all the heat in the bay. Removed it after one scorching hot day at the track when it started to bubble up horribly. Craig, I'm using an FRP replica of GD. It's heaps cheaper
