Welcome to the forums! Just curious how much hassle it was to get those wheels to fit? I'm looking at doing 17 x 9 as well and curious how if it's to much of an aggravation to make fit.

That's a beautiful dc5.

Awesome job man!

it wasn't bad at all, stock camber in front, very aggressive in the rear. Had LIP collision roll rear fenders and thats about it. But you have to realize that I am running a 255 40r tire which is massive, but nonetheless can still fit pretty hassel free

Mmm,i mean C west isnt too bad and all,but Kouki means "later" in japan,so really unless its oem,you cant have anything kouki that wasnt made by honda,but still not a bad look.

hahaha alright, as far as I knew many after market japanese companies distinguish there parts by zenki and kouki, j's racing, chargespeed, cwest, max raxing, in which my parts are considered kouki, not zenki since the car has been converted to a 2005, but anyway thanks for the comment

will do just waiting on my coilovers before I get my photographer out

[Foolinaround]

I mean if they made a zenki,chuki,and kouki version when it comes to that stuff,then its early period,middle period,and later period respectively. in which case would be right.

haha alright I really don't care, I was just going by what I know, if it really bothers you I can remove the "time period" in front of the parts

yea I know you're really into the tucked bay look. When I did it, I was going for form and function, so I wanted to keep AC and PS, just do it and little bit different. The tuck consists of:

Chasebays engine harness
Relocated battery and fuse box in the trunk
Redone, tucked power harness and headlight harness
Tucked vaccum manifold and accessories
Redone brake lines (still waiting to tuck them)
Engine bay was also repainted by LIP
Power steering was removed in favor and eletric power steering
Custom Earls AC Lines

[Foolinaround]

That'd be great.

No but really though,its just like when everyone calls **** JDM,when its made in everywhere but japan,js.

Dont worry its fine.

[dudewheresmycar]
