well ive been reading on the board for awhile and decieded to go ahead and make my first entrance. 1995 w/420A 5-Speed. Mods: Magnaflow Catback,Hiper Silver face guages (blue/red numbers at night), OBX-R Short Shifter(modified center console), VDO Shift light, MSD RPM activation switch,Greddy Rad cap, Greddy Counter Weighted Shift Knob, OBX-R Short ram intake, MSD Wires, NGK Plugs. I have all of my turbo stuff cept for an AFC of some type. its a t25. i know the quality of the pix are not great, pic phone. But you get the idea.
hey welcome to the forum Rob not a bad start..the wheels seem like they'll be coming along nice, like the gauges...no offense but im not feelin the muffler tho....what were ur options when u were choosing? or how did u decide what muffler to go with?
well the shop i work for had a non turbo magnaflow catback just sitting in the store room. its been there for awhile and he gave me an awesome deal on it that i couldnt beat anywhere. The muffler is kinda growing on me slowly. And it still has the nice quiet tone to it as well. It is a bit ricer, i may change it out eventually. Works for now though.
welcome to the board you got a nice start i cant say i care for the exhaust but you deffinately cant beat a good deal theres always later on down the road to get it changed but like i said good start and welcome
from what i can tell, it's newspaper. he probably used about 2-3 coats for coverage and if it were me, i'd let it dry for 3 hours if your using spray wheel paint.
newspaper shoved in to cover the caliper and rotor, and masking tape on the wheel. that is only 2 coats so far, it started to look like rain, so i am going to hopefully get to do a light sand on them and do another 2 coats per wheel, as well as the clear coat.
The guages are fro hiper industries. They also were just laying here around the shop. The shop owner says he sells em for 75bux.
I need to rebuild the t25, and find some type of AFC to run. I am hoping a month or so.
hoping to lower this beast REALLY soon. Just trying to find best deal on a good spring set. i have a buddy who works for skunk2. i am going to contact him next week to see how much he can get me the coilovers for. It would be nice to have the adjustability, for struts i am going for some GR2s.
On the struts, go ahead and go the extra mile. Get the AGX's. you'll need them if you lower it, or at least you'll be thankful you did. Check with your boss and see if he can get a website for those gauges.
yeah got with AGX, i like my AGX and Eibach springs set with 17" rims. but trust me, the ride quality on bumps and holes will change dramaticly, BUT the cornering and handling is amazing if you got right set of rubber
and if u do get the similar set up, make sure to roll your rear feneders up, or they will rub on tires
ps: Nykon got me all of the suspension stuff, PM him if you need it done, Karma to him haha
