My Hellastock EK/EJ6 98 Hatch from idaho

[blakeb]

Went to the park down the street from my apartment. I've been getting slow leaks I'll go from 40 psi to 35 psi pretty quick. Can warm weather mess with tire pressure?

In to see some progress! I always like the shape of the ek hatch the best.
Just moved to Phoenix from Idaho Falls, The scene here is phenomenal, but always good to see a build from the gem state

It's so lovely deep for the static... Damn, like your low setup!

Im really slacking on bodywork. Its my DD and i cant catch a break where i can put it away and get everything done waiting for a 3 day weekend to get it all done. i wish idahos car scene was alot more into stance. its neglected here :/

thank you good sir! if my rear quarter panels werent flared out i would probably have clean lip to QP fitment.trying to get closer in the front but god damn it scares me. i have a big ramp entrance going into my apartment and parking on the street where i live scares me more with all the bad activity :/ thats one of the things thats stopping me.

Gnarly civic you got there , Really digging the current look but she deserves a respray..

About the tire leakage i think it's the warm weather. I drive on 165/45 but on 8x15 & 8,5x15 and got the same problem with one wheel. Weird thing was , in wintertime they'd never lost pressure. Already got it re-sealed but didn't help. Going with 195 for my next set-up. I'm "tired" having to pump up the tires every week.

Anyway keep up the good work. You"re heading in the right direction

yeah one wheel i have to pump it up every few days...i drive around with a damn tire gauge in my drivers side cubbie hole or whatever you want to call it lol. Im looking into becoming the 195 guy in my crew as well. i run around alot and do construction so i dont got a set route where i can avoid potholes and speedbumps sometimes i just have to roll with the punches :/. i was looking into a 15x9.5 with a +20ish offset. and 195/45/15s or 16x9s with 195/40/16s.

I'll let you guys know how 195 is on x9's as soon as mine are mounted and I can run them. Stretch doesn't seem insane.

it shouldnt be to crazy. i just wouldnt want to do it with the offset i have. i have a -15 offset all the way around on 15x9s lol. i would havee to run some serious camber haha

[Dremetos]

Yeah, with 0 offset I bet it's going to be very close with my already rolled / pulled fenders, don't want to run a front camber kit because it's just going to punch through the strut towers, lol. My only real concern is the rears.

If it comes down. Down to it. They have cheap camber kits that would give you the clearance you need.

[Dremetos]

Yeah, I ordered one of those cheap eBay rear camber kits just in case it gets crazy. I really do love the huge poke minor camber look, for some reason it just flows really well. Your rear fenders don't look that bad in pictures, but neither do mine, lol.

Yeah, Idaho never had a big stance following. I'm sure it will catch on sooner or later though.
Keep it up, do it right, and you will be helping the scene
