the evo 3 swap parts are coming

[sleepydsm]

Is this thing ever gonna get painted?

You should really clean up your engine bay.

[TkrPerformance]

I will paint it sometime. There is no reason to paint it till I am totaly done with it.
there is nothing wrong with the engine bay. I painted it before the car was put together and it is a d.d. so I dont care if it is dirty

[TkrPerformance]

got the tires mounted to the 18's thanks to my buddy Pete at goodyear


and yes they have the euro strech on them 18*8 rim with a 215/35/18 tire. I dont care at all sense the rims are new cost me 300.00 and the tires have few hundred miles on them they were 125.00 for the set and I can't get a 225/40/18 under it at all.


so with all this today done I will be getting the evo 9 brembos on the car front and back and the 5lug swap done

[Kracka]

Sexy wheels!

[GsXtUrBo98]

I really like the wheels but i think that they would have looked better with 225/40ZR18 but with the price thats a hell of a deal

[GsXtUrBo98]

They look like dunlop derizza DZ101 tires?? Very nice summer tire

[TkrPerformance]

they are falken's they came off the sebon civic show car. I would have liked to do 225/40's but they are to big for the car and would not fit.

[GsXtUrBo98]

Well it looks nice can't wait to see it all together!

I think that's all a matter of perspective.

Or how much negative camber you want to have.

If this has been asked before sorry, but what color do you think you'll end up going with for the car then?

[Kracka]

Blue with flat black.

[TkrPerformance]

other way around chris
flat blue with gloss black

[Kracka]

Damn it.

[Matt D.]

I get black wheels, Mark gets black wheels... Fucking unoriginal copy cats.

[TkrPerformance]

well matt I got the black rims before you did. I got them from chris along time ago and have had the tires for 3months.

[turbotalon1g]

I had my black wheels on for a couple years now. lol. Good job man, post up some pics of those things mounted.

[TkrPerformance]

any way got some of it done today with the help of my dad,kevin,and jon
got the rear arms off and apart and started to go back together. hit a road block with one of them the bearing broke pressing out the 4 lug hub, But it was craig for the save he was able to order one for me will be in tomorrow morring.

evo III rear arms. We cut up the oem brake brackets. We cut the ears off them. Also had to make the center hole bigger on the evo 9 ebrake and drill out the bolt holes in it a bit to line up with the evo III bolt's


here is the brackets that we made out of some 1/4in alum plate I had laying around also 1/4in spacers. still have to drill and tap the oem evo III brake bracket for then alum ones for the brembos.



Also got the front hubs put on the car and have some modding to do the front brackets and back of the brembo so they sit better.

[TkrPerformance]

I have to find a set of lugs for the rims also now

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

That turned out to be alot more work than I thought it was gonna be. I'm glad the left rear side came apart way easier than the right rear side. That one bottom bolt was a BITCH!
