Customizing

[Iowan_Juggalo]

What is everybodys plans for customizing this year?

[Brad]

I am adding clear corner turnsignals to the S4. I already added the spoiler. And may and a ECU chip also.

For the BMW I am installing brand new carpet and seat upholstery, new brake lines, a heater valve, electronic ignition and will top it all off with a custom installed BMW Roundel logo in the steering wheel hub. I'll post pics of that one!

First thing on the list is to get the money!

Lightning Air Dam w/ fog light kit
Dual Exhaust (Probably Borla)
Air Ram hood
Air Force One Intake
K&N Filter
Superchip
Sunroof
Custom Bucket seat w/ center console
LCD with DVD and playstation
I know I live in New Orleans but Heat Seats

Gotta lotta stuff that I wanna do. What will I end up actually doing? ermm... Not a lot Probably going to start doing mobile detailing on the weekends to help get the money

Edit: and for the mobile detailing I'll probably drop a 50Gal watertank in the bed.

Also, I am planning to add WarpSpeed's Stage II subframe connectors and an Addco Rear Sway Bar to the equation.

For the interior, I am going to need a little help from you guys. I would like to put a Black Birdseye Maple Wood dash kit on the inside. The problem is finding someone that has the kit.

I picked up a 3" cat-back Thermal Research & Design exhaust for the WRX a couple of weeks ago, and a K&N panel filter and a hacked up airbox from a friend about a week after that. I plan on ordering 17" wheels and tires here in the next couple of days (P1 replicas from a company called Rota, mounted with Falken Azenis RS or ST115 tires; see attached pic for a TireRack representation of the WRX wearing P1s). Other plans for the summer include a short shifter, an intercooler sprayer system, and possibly a gauge package. I already have a HUD boost gauge, but will add oil pressure/temp, fuel pressure, EGT, and maybe intake air temp. I know of a source for custom dual-purpose gauges (for example, you can get intake air temp and EGT on the same gauge . . . picture below), so I could fit up to six functions in the WRX center dash pod, which holds three physical gauges.

New shoes for the WRX:

The car shown here is a 2001 Anniversary Edition with the rims on it. The only difference is that the rims shown are silver as opposed to chrome and they are 19" as opposed to 18".

I'm waiting for some new wheels to become available. I'm going with this setup: (AutoCouture Magnifiques 19x9.5 front and 20X10.5 rear)





After that, I'm on a holding pattern until the Blitz Twin-Supercharger setup becomes available in the US in June.

[Dr. Jones]

for my '00 Civic SI here are my plans.. (in order of how i'll do them.. keep going down the list till i run out of $$$.. if i even have enough to get started )

Comptech icebox cold air intake
Coilover kit to lower
Comptech 4-2-1 header
Mugen twinloop exhaust
17 inch spoon rims /w supra 712 tires
Body kit (yet to be determined)
Greddy Turbo kit
Fuel upgrades

The Car: 2002 Lexus SC430
The engine: SC430 w/ Twin Blitz Superchargers 425hp at the rear wheels, over 510HP at the flywheel.

I already have the Dazz Matiz Wheel (19x9 & 19x10) with the L-Sportline adjustable suspension. Something like this pic, but not quite as low. This car was lowered 3" front and 2" rear. Mine is 2.5" front and 2.0" rear. This car also has the evolution front spoiler. I'm still thinking about adding the spoiler.



If my car was white, I'd go with the Wald kit like this one:

Something else for my "maybe" list:

Although I've seen "painting the sideskirts" mentioned as a mod on i-club in the past, only recently did I run across a pic (see attachment) . . . I really like the look; the car looks much lower by matching the skirt color with the body. Even better, Subaru of America is offering them as OEM pre-painted replacement parts, so there will be no need to involve a body shop.

So, what do y'all think? ? ?
