ichi-go's 99 JDM White S15

[Hunts15]

did ya have too do anything to your arches ? spacers ?

 

[ichi-go]

Rolled rear guards, front stock

Stretch tyres does the trick

If i'm using recommended tyres for that rim width, it will never fit...

Just a q about your intercooler piping hole on battery tray that what are they called that you put around edges of hole you cut? Is it available from like electrical shop?

 

[ichi-go]

It's called rubber grommet, i'm not sure where you could get some though, I bought it at a place here called Clark Rubber (which sells all kinds of rubber). I guess hardware store is your best bet...

Update - Parts are starting to roll in from Jap... first to come is the Nismo pump, great unit, bigger than walbro and bosch that I have seen but i'm not sure if they flow more or what not, but it's definately quieter than walbro/bosch equivalent, although more expensive, i feel that it's worth it

It doesn't come with just the pump but a couple of little bits and bobs

Comparing the stock pump and nismo pump

First impression, car felt alot smoother (I'm not sure it's due to the $$ I've spent) but car felt more power as well

Minor update:

Cams, Ras and a brand new vtc

Splitfire coilpacks

Got a spare rocker cover which I painted and modifed for the RAS

All in...

Those interested to hear the difference between stock cams and greddy easy cams, very beautiful, not much different to stock, slightly more lumpier

Looks smart on the Enkeis! Perfect colour for them too.

 

[Auss15]

Great colour....of course, and if I didn't have XD9's on I would have the Enkei rpf1's on..timeless design..

 

[EASEAOW]

What dimensions are your enkei's? I've been thinking about getting some 17x8.5 and 9.5 just want to make sure I get a good offset.

 

[DeLonge]

Somebody knows the front bumper?
