alot know me, but here is a pic recap of my car life…
88 Toyota P/U: Sold
95 DC2: Stolen
00 Maxima: Chillin under the car cover (For Sale)
90 DB1: New DD
This is my ‘new’ 229k miles…tough on the eyes, and not many plans for this but just to daily drive it to and from work and save money on gas
these are the before pics on this car that i am posting in this post. interior needed/s alot of love. it needs carpet but my money is exhausted right now. but i picked up some EP3 seats i purp powered and armor alled the interior and door jams. the a/c wasnt working so i put it in the shop…since its a beater and the a/c wasnt working as from the factory i have it connected to a switch. 20% tint is on it, carpet is as clean as its gona get until i get money to replace the carpet. it needs two rear non power window regulators and a hose to run from the IM to the PCV valve and a plug for the B20 VC PCV valve location and a little more cleaning/tiddying up of the engine bay…all in all, pretty solid car. guy i bought it from pretty much revamped teh entire top end. new clutch, water pump, timing belt, seals, yadda yadda
Plans:
-Ok/Decent set of coilovers $300 range
-wheels (around the price of a set of new 14" tires…$300-400) - Got Fat fives
-cheap/decent stereo setup (deck and speakers and maybe a subwoofer setup) = Got Kenwood Deck
-MAYBE a paint job
-replace rear window regulators
-paint VC wrinkle red (ordered) - Done
-paint header shield black
-replace catback w/ ordered Ebay catback (ordered) - Done
-6k HIDs (ordered) - Done, waiting to install one pieces
-yellow foglights (ordered/came in ready to install)
-Purple power taillights to whiten the ‘pink lines’
-Install EP3 seats (driver seat installed already) - Install complete
I wont order One piece headlights until i find a set for around $150 or so…and thats a maybe…anyway, on to the pics
welp…i got the EP3 seats in…gota get the passenger ‘locked down’ so in the next wk or so ima drop the car off to my mechanic so he can do that and put the other part of my seatbelts in i’m just using the lap belts. also got my HIDs in and my yellow ‘fog lights’ in and also ran a new ground wire and ditched the old ugly, mangled looking one. my exhaust came in…havent even looked at it…but ill get pics this week
only bad thing about the fitment is two of the hangers dont ‘fit’ properly so i need to take it to the exhaust shop and have them fit it so itll sit up a little higher. but its extremely quiet…love it
Can i ask what brand the catback is? It looks just like my BBP,if its a BBP then yeah,i love the sound of it. Not to loud yet not to soft,just right…lol
yea mine is really quiet too, i love that i got just enough ‘butt dyno’ improvements, but its real quiet, i love that about it
as far as i know, its a ebay catback, i dont know the ‘brand’. i do need to take it to an exhaust shop and get two of the hangers modified so itll tuck a little better, other than that, wasnt a really bad install
ill try to get one up, my camera is down due to bad batteries. i need to swap them out
yea thats pretty much the same one i got, but like this link, the one that i ordered showed a silencer, but didnt have one, although i’m glad it didnt come w/ one, b/c it would have looked tacky and i didnt want a random hole in my exhaust…but it was ok for you to post it in here, no biggie.
thanks man. seen you in teh home stretch of the rebuild!
