Got some new parts in, with some more arriving maybe later this week. Looks like I'll be busy this weekend

Evo-R endlinks...a lot beefier than I thought.




My Rays lugs





**EDIT** Adding this picture to reduce confusion...




Evo-R tossed this in for free...don't know if it was intentional




The 19" Volks...still waiting on tires to arrive




Mazda appearance package front lip...still waiting on the sides to arrive



Still waiting on my Megan Coilovers and Progress sways to arrive from Fluid Motorsports as well as my wheel spacers.

I also got the Axial short shifter, didn't take pics though. Was too excited to install it.

Total cost was about $6000. It was a toss-up between a turbo or exterior/suspension work and I chose the latter. After a long discussion with the wife, we (read 'she') decided we don't want to deal with the hidden costs of turbos, nor a blown engine. Maybe once I get back from Korea...

 

hope those are the 1.5mm pitch lugs, the 1.25mm wont fit...

 

Check closer, you can see the 1.5 is circled in red.

 

yea from the look of things thoose lug nuts arent correct, dont try to force them in either, other than that everything looks cool

 

yup you can barely see it but it is correct, nvm

 

Here you go, just for clarification purposes.

 

sexy sexy wheels... cant wait to see them installed

 

what size are the wheels and what offset?
And what tyres you mounting?! Looking good!

 

Wheels are 19" 8.5 +29 up front and 19" 9.5 +48 in the rear. I'll be running 15mm spacers in the rear to push them out to +33.

The tires are going to be a less expensive (read fund shortage) Toyo Proxy TR1 since these rims will be my "show" set. 245/35/19 up front 265/35/19 in the rear.

My co-worker just let me know that there are some regular auto-x events at the Marina airport. So he recommended that I use my stock wheels with the Dunlop Direzzas that are currently mounted and join him out there. I've never done auto-x before, but have always wanted try it.

 

End links are tight, looking into gettin mine upgraded when i get new sways. Lots of cool gear.

 

Nice modZ.......... I got those Lugs there sexy. So are all the rest of the things u got.

 

can't go wrong with Volks, Congrats..!

 

wow lots of mods at once. fun!

 

very nice, i love doing a whole bunch of mods at once. but then if you do anything to the engine its hard to tell what part gave you HP or torque

 

Please do take pictures after the wheel and tires are mounted, a couple of close up picture on the wheel & fender gap and how flush is the wheel to the fender. Wheel are my next mod.

 

Provided the coilovers arrive on time, I may have some pictures for you by Sunday. If not, I won't have time to install until next weekend.

I don't want to put the wheels on until I do the coilovers and swaybars first.
