Well I've been hinting at having a suprise for a while and even put the car into my profile. So finally here are some pics of my newly aquired vehicle:

Before anyone says anything about the wires in my trunk, I do plan on building a floor up around the amp so that all those wires will be hidden underneath it. If anyone who has done this before has and tips or suggestions please let me know. I'm not even sure what materials I'm going to use to do it.

What's happening to the hatch at this point is up in the air, at this point I only have 1 and 2 gear.

Those buttons control the power moonroof and the button next to the cruise control is for the foglights.

Yes, it belonged to turfnnsurf, he moved onto a new project and didn't have the money to keep both cars, and of course I couldn't let his car be sold to someone I wasn't sure was going to take care of it, right? :D

Coupes rock!!!! :D Nice car, man. I recognized it as well, but I never would've guessed correctly :)

I'd sure like a power moonroof...:(

Do you like those Progress Springs? What's the rate on them? Are they progressive or do they have the same rate through the whole spring? I'm looking to get some springs, and I'm tryin to get opinions on the different brands. I'm assuming you had to do a camber kit on that as well, yes? Thanks in advance :)

HostileJava
07-21-2003, 08:57 AM
To be honest with you I'm not sure what the rate of the springs are but I believe that its a progressive not linear spring. He had them on when I bought the car. It does need some camber correction however I have not gotten around to doing that yet. I may be putting my Suspension Technique springs on there along wiht the koni's but I'm not sure which is the better spring to use.

Love the coupe...one of my favorites. Why don't you take the tranny from the couple and put it in the hatch and then swap a 5spd into the coupe? Sounds like a good idea to me :D

So since you don't have the camber correction, how bad is the tire wear? And I'm assuming you've got Konis or revalved Bilsteins, right? Sorry for all the questions, I appreciate the help though!! :D

It's not that bad of a lean, barely noticeable. I don't have the Koni's in there yet, there coming off of my hatch and going on, I have Tokico Struts on there now and I don't like them one bit.

I was actually thinking about doing the 5speed swap on the hatch, but it's kinda up in the air as to what I"m going to do with it right now.

Thanx for all the positive comments guys.

I may have said Teg seats, but they are Lude seats. I guess I was just getting a little excited about the rally :rolleyes:

Yeah, those are the hatch rims, the Se-i rims are sitting in the garage now and the hatch has older lude wheels on. I'm actually building another box for the sub, it's in a 1 cubic foot sealed hatch box right now, it's going in a 2 cubic foot ported box and then the false floor will go in over the wires.

hey hostile java when you order your front kit does it come as a whole bumper or do you keep your old bumber still to use it for some connection?

HostileJava
07-24-2003, 03:38 PM
It's not a new bumper, it just fits over top of the old bumper.

God danm Hostile. You really went throught with what you guys talked about on the last meeting we had. Well, you already know what I think of Brad's ex Sei. Sweet looking coupe but It would be awsome if he would of kept the original front leather seats. If the seats are in bad shape, you can take it to the place where they did the interior for my teg. Pretty good price in leather or if you want, in vinyl. But the car looks awsome bro. Dont take this the wrong way but I said it before to Brad and I'll tell you. I think the car would look better without the bra. Its just me so dont pay me no mind.

Hey, how about the other thing we were talking about at the meet; Remember?? Brad was waiting for the shop to finish up .......... I dont wanna say it because I dont know if he wants to keep it on the download ...............

HostileJava
07-25-2003, 04:20 AM
There is a small dent under the bra, when the body kit goes on the dent and bra come off. I think I'll also be getting the other thing that brad had going, but keep that hush for now. It's gonna be a suprise.

Quite honestly I don't know what it's off of. It was on the car when I bought it. You can PM Turfnnsurf, he's the one that installed it.
