Travis's road to stance!?!

[T.Reed]

Well my name is Travis, I'm from Maryland. I bought this car
in a rough shade. I'm slowly putting my car together piece by
piece. I have alot of dreams for this car and slowly will put them
into effect. If anyone has ideas post them, Always looking to trade
OEM wheels just let me know. I wanna be known as a wheel man.
Will post a update with a date and pics the day of the update.

Facebook.

Pictures:
Few pics of the car when i first got it.





Stuff i've done since i got it:
Lowered it for right now. and cleaned it





I got a set of knock off one pieces from a friend. Due to the stock ones were messed up.




Then order my rims i will be rocking. XXR 002, 16x8 0 offset. Still need to get my fenders rolled and all.






Shortened my shifter was way to long.


Trade my Hx wheels for BMW bottle caps. Which are up for trade.






Ordered JDM OEM fenders due to mine being dented and messed up.

that is an excellent start! i used to have a da9 before i sold it for my bmw. i have a few suggestions

-if you can source some real jdm 1 piece lights, do it! its a much cleaner look then the ones you have now. not saying yours are bad. but you know what i mean.

-buy a set of the 1990-1991 brake lights. they are the same size and plug in the same, but are only white and red. no orange turn signal. again, a much cleaner look

-get some rear control arms a.s.a.p to help you get some mad camber in the rear. and flare those out like crazy. your gonna need to run a 195/45/16 tire on that bitch to get it to sit

-once you slam the car, you'll hear alot of scraping when you go over speedbumps. DONT BE ALARMED! its just the mud flaps.

-when you eventually get a new exhaust, dont get one of the fart cans. i can't remember what i bought, but i went for the full header back exhaust (cat delete) full stainless, with a real muffler and everything. it sounded brutally sexy at 7600rpm

-pick up a type-r lip for the front (generic ebay lip). they are cheap and look great!


oh, i also love the jdm sidemarkers. pretty tits

Yeah ordering a lip soon. The whole suspension is getting redone soon as i can afford it. Looking for both set of lights. Thanks tho pal.

Had to replace the Bumper turn signals. Went with the jap spec amber ones. Also got in my wink mirror. And ordered extended lug nuts and studs.



Will post a pic of the wink mirror soon as it's installed later today. Please leave some good comments nothing bad.

Nice start, i had a GS-R i painted the same color. and those XXRs are sweet. but the bottle caps with spacers would be hella sick

[T.Reed]

Stock wink need stickers lmao.

[bostongrnM3]

pretty nice progress you got going here, my best friend has a da aswell and hes in the process of building it aswell but he needed guidance or his woulda headed in the wrong dirrection

[who says hella]

damn dude you should of gone to the junkyard if you needed headlights. i got the same fake ones, and after about 8 months i really wish i didn't have them.

and your fenders were in almost excellent condition for a 18 year old car, one of mine has a real big dent in it and it's still not bothering me enough to buy a new one, its been dented since the week i got my car.

but other than that, nice start. keep those tailights and moldings that color. don't paint them black! that's crucial. my thread is somewhere floating around here. its a black 92 LS teg i'm on my 7th pair of rims.

Going all motor whatever it is. It's either JDM B18C, B20, H22, or K20 Type R. But that's after all my suspension is done and my paint and all.


Update. Ordered extended lugnuts. Should be here soon. Ordering my LCA and LAB friday. Also added facebook link to main post. Everyone add me want 5k friends. Always could use some friends.

[who says hella]

depends on how slammed you're trying to get on the F&F's type one's. My oil pan was like half an inch off the ground and it was kinda bouncy because i lowered it from the spring perch also. I had it like that for like 2 weeks then raised it back up.

[T.Reed]

I plan on going really low. Slammed is what im loking for and cambering the hell out of it. i want a sick look but still my DD.


Well i got my lug nuts last week.


Today i got this nice package to start my suspension stock before installing.
