Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

it looks good. I want to repaint my car red, but I'm broke, did you have any paint left over?

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

I'm digging the lip kit.. Looks good, but a little to much red for me.

Glad ya posted Dan, I thought you died

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

im always around, i come and go, mostly read
its just that this hmt project is mostly finished, and im looking to start another one, biggar better, with a new body.

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

never too much red for me, I'm in the red gang, we meet on tuesdays.

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

I feel like saying it's nice wouldn't be enough, so I'm gonna do the "what's wrong with it" thing. :D


BLACK WHEELS = STATUS. 8)

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

ya, if there's anything that lacks on your car it's the wheels, they kinda suck. a nice coat or 2 of black paint would help, or you could select a set from the stealthmode selection at www.---------------------------

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

no engine bay pics :(

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

dude...that looks rad. and i agree, the lip kit does look pretty cool...what kinda kit is that? is there one available for a civic(91)?

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

your massive end tanks on your intercooler are massive and they dont look like there hooked up to anything.

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

that intercooler is cute :)

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

Doesn't look like they are.. didn't Projekteg run around like that for a while?

Nice car though man, it looks real nice. Lets some some engine bay shots! :D

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

that car looks nice. i would have to agree with the constructive criticism (sp) though, the wheels would look very sexy black, and the intercooler doesnt look that great. and we need an engine bay picture.

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

hehe. why is under the hood is a secret :-*

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

such a secret that he told us in his first post.....

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

i'll post pics of under the hood if you want, the reason i dont have them up is because its dirty and wires hanging everywhere, its just your typical zc HMT setup

these are the closest to up to date pics i have. i just realized i havent taken an engine bay pic in over a year :o

this pic is when i still had my HKS racing bov, now i have the SSQV.

yes, the intercooler is hooked up, maybe it doesn't look like an HKS bar and plate intercooler, but keep in mind this was made 2-3 years ago when HMT setups were not big at all and i had no idea how to do things right.
regardless of what it looks like, it works amazing.

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

get a different back bumper or even a rear lip , spray down the interkooler with some flat black paint and take care of the rims and than the car will be simply badass. damn i knew enterprise rented good cars but turbo rexs they rentin the good ---- now lol

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

Im reallly likeing the Lip, your going to have to post which VW it came from because i want one!! :o

Hey man are you using a 14b?? If so, do i see a dsm o2 housing on a 4th gen? if so how did you get it on there, Im not sure what your using?

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

yea man, tell us what lip that is! i've always wanted a lip like that

btw clean car, i like it a lot

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

the turbo is a TEO4H and that second o2 housing is custom as well as the downpipe.

as for the lip
dont expect it to look that good out of the box
the lip fits almost perfect right out of the box. i had mine shaved together (they comes as 2 seperate pieces) and had it all sanded and painted (it has a rough texture out of the box)
as for getting a lip like that, just head to your local VW dealership

the part nembers are
LEFT 1hm-805-903-b41
RIGHT 1hm-805-904-b41
list price $14.53 Each side

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

Dam that looks good!!
Love your car man. ------- clean. Im not big on body kits n' ----, but you made it work there. Lip looks factory too.

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

sweet thanks for the part numbers

was any cutting or other modification done to the pieces to get them to fit?

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k

no cutting required

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

Dan, your pics are down. also what size of rubber you got ?

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

the custom lip is subtle, I like subtle, but was it worth it?
The car is clean as hell. Nice job.
At first glance, I thought you should drop it more, but upon reconsideration, you would benefit (aesthetically) from slightly bigger rims.
Good job nonetheless. Keep it up.

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

Bigger rims? haha. How about not.

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

nice and clean..great job

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

LMFAO! Nice bamboo 8)

I can see all the pics though :-\

Re:crx photo shoot ***no 56k
 

its a bit jacked up right now
the reason the rear is jacked is because the passenger side rear fender lip rubs the tire under hard corners, when the body shop remade the fender lip the one side ended up being too far inwards.

and its getting close to winter and i would have to jack it back up again anyway. so its not a matter of lack of parts its just im too lazy to adjust the coilovers
