All that high dollar stuff, with Megan coilovers? Is there a story there Bryan? They hook u up with some freebies?

blu808 · 09-11-2008, 12:56 AM

I like megan coilovers.

They are one of the only companies that offers a shit load of different spring rate options. And if you ever wanna change its only like $200 for a new set of springs.

I back em.

Tein, hks, apexi are all real nice and legit as well. But with us being drifters and most of us spreading ourselves pretty thin I would consider Megan coilovers a bargain.

brainfood · 09-11-2008, 11:41 AM

I hate megans, if you drive on real coilovers its night and day difference. Cfrost needed real coilovers before long beach so I sold him my superdrifts and am rocking his megans for the time being till I buy something else. Probably dg-5's but since the car isnt running its not a big deal just rollin on these for now.

Dousan_PG · 09-11-2008, 12:40 PM

dg-5s are the shit

brainfood · 09-11-2008, 01:07 PM

No I emailed them and havnt heard anything back. Still waiting. Probably have to buy a new one.

brainfood · 09-14-2008, 09:43 PM

SoSideways · 09-15-2008, 12:12 PM

Wow, talk about good fit and finish.

Good lord.

drftmark · 09-15-2008, 12:39 PM

Looking rad.

Landers · 09-15-2008, 01:29 PM

Talk about serious badass...your car sir is seriously badass

If i could +rep you i would.

PoorMans180SX · 09-15-2008, 01:49 PM

Holy mother of mary and joseph that is amazing.

You should get some shots from the rear too!

Are you just sticking with the S13 subframe now then? Or is that S14/S15, I guess I can't really tell?

brainfood · 09-15-2008, 09:59 PM

Thanks guys I am in love with it. I have seen the aero and fenders everyday for so long sitting in my apt. Its nice to see them on the car finally. Car should be on the ground tomorrow I cant wait! Still need to re-wire the whole car and fab intercooler piping. Just waiting on my intake mani back from the polisher so I can order piping. Lots of little stuff but hopefully it will be running soon. Once I sell the 14 I can go pick up my rear pair of s1's and a pair of 18x12 bersalagios. Cant wait to get the wheels on too!

brainfood · 09-17-2008, 02:38 PM

test fit my front wheels

seriousbadass.com check it out

brainfood · 10-07-2008, 10:13 AM

Lets talk about this shit for a while

SoSideways · 10-07-2008, 10:26 AM

Ruh roh... now the rear wheels aren't flush enough!! lol

94cc0rd · 10-07-2008, 10:52 AM

am i just a noob or is your link to seriousbadass a link to fatlace?

when i click blog, it says wait for it to be launched... wtf?1

B_mart24 · 10-07-2008, 11:14 AM

looks good man, i love the fitment on that kit!

Dousan_PG · 10-07-2008, 11:44 AM

what hood u got???

Style · 10-07-2008, 12:10 PM

those side skirts dont look like they flare out as much as the front and back bumper... what up with that? shit looks goofy

Dousan_PG · 10-07-2008, 12:13 PM

no it doesnt look goofy

its too bad u dont h ave the super awesome radical BN SPORTS door sill piece
wah wah wah

GSXRJJordan · 10-07-2008, 12:16 PM

Lol - BRog, it looks insane. Fix the link to your blog!

brainfood · 10-07-2008, 08:53 PM

Blog is down because fatlace is re-launching a new site. I like it without the door sill I have some but didnt put them on. Stock hood for now I will probably get dmax in the future but since I dont think I will run a spoiler I probably will run stock or stock style hood too. we will see. Installed the fenders wide for the s1's so the bersalgios will need a small spacer but the s1's will fit perfect with no spacers.

brainfood · 10-28-2008, 08:41 PM

Well my blog has been down but I have made a lot of progress since my last post so figure I will just update this thread.

Got this the other day so I could do my intercooler and downpipe and dump tube.

Didnt want to pay $350 for the full-race downpipe after I bought the wrong one the first time so I made this for under $100 will work just as good and look almost as good because you cant see the welds anyway since. Waiting on 3 bolt flange for the downpipe side and then I am going to cut my downpipe and extend it so I dont have to make a cat delete.

Also built my wastegate dump.

Need to buy some aluminum wire so I can finish up my intercooler piping but I am waiting on some stuff that was backordered.

Took these apart so I can refinish them. 18x11 -17 s1's for the rear.

Someone wanted pics of the car for a shirt so I pushed it out and took some.

Random snap in the shop

Put 25mm spacers on the rear just for fun. 18x12 -25.

Engine shot before piping put the manifold on to fab piping, its back at the polisher to get finished up.

Dousan_PG · 10-28-2008, 09:01 PM

needs a wing!!

96Turbo · 10-28-2008, 09:29 PM

damn son...lookin great

that kit fits fuckin beautifully

but dousan is correct...it's incomplete without a big ass wing

brainfood · 10-28-2008, 11:50 PM

Nope
street driven > big ass ugly wing

Some Day though Garage BB from an fc or 86. I am waiting to see one in person I can test fit before I buy one.

96Turbo · 10-29-2008, 12:15 AM

i'm relieved to hear that. i'm not a fan of the gaudy 2 foot high wings....

but it seems that's usually what accompanies the BN kit with koguchi fenders.

keep it clean.......

GSXRJJordan · 10-29-2008, 12:37 AM

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Can't wait to see it in person.

Now the final question - what color will it be?
