Okinawa XSi Build

Cars looking great man, you got any pics of your da back home?

thanks… i have no idea where the pictures are. they are buried somewhere is the 3000+ pictures i have in my photobucket… i’ll get some new ones taken so people can see… there should be a thread or 2 on here with pictures of my car…

but update for today,
i hosted the 2013 poker run and it turned out great… long story short, 4 hours of non stop high speed mountain driving with all these cars

find it weird how it doesnt have bronze glass?ive had xsi from 90-93 all with bronze glass
is it a conversion?

yea man. its weird. definitely not a conversion. maybe the glass was replaced at some point… who knows man. its a mystery…

so today i finally got to do my brakes and i did a write up on it as well. check it out in the teg tips section…

and heres a couple more pictures from the event yesterday…




i put my finger over the lens on purpose. the sun was whiting out the picture. there are A LOT more pictures but linking them all would be ridiculous. here are the highlights…







small update… i got my rain x blades in the mail, i picked up my odyssey battery, washed the car and took some cool pictures with my friends altezza…





here are some pictures of where the mud guards used to be and how dumb it looks without them. i really need a set…

i got some more things in the mail… pretty happy about them too… the only thing left for my wheel area is to paint my calipers gloss black. my suspension is going to take a few weeks to a month to get here so it will be a while for that, otherwise, my wheel area is about to be done. im gonna try and get them on this weekend maybe. theres another drive on saturday so depending on how long that takes will determine when this will be done…





and i bought this dope ass wireless router…

parts en route:
mishimoto radiator
mishimoto fan with shroud
mishimoto slim fan for the ac
k tuned traction bar
ground control coilover sleeves
koni yellow adjustable shocks
91 front bumper
oem stanley bumper lights for the 91 bumper
amber bumper lights for the 92 bumper i already have
greddy air n x intake elbow

and i found a set of white mugen rnr’s for sale… hopefully the guy isnt asking to much…

thats ALOT of grounding points lol…i miss roads like that as well…i like ur parts en route order…just wondering tho why putting soo much money into this car, when ur tour in okinawa is over wont the car be staying?

yea, idk why they did it like that. once i remove it and put my odyssey battery i’m sure i’ll find out.

ah, the age old question… why so much money? well, short answer, because 1. all the money i’m spending on this is not out of pocket. i parted out one of my rx7s and it is 100% funding this build with money to spare and 2. because why not…

the car is a 91, my tour is over is 2015. all i have to do is extend a year and i can take it home. even if i couldnt take it with me, i have no problem dumping this money into the car. i enjoy the progress…

bring me an r32 4 door in 2016…ill save up now and paypal u when the time comes lol

lmao the paypal fee for 30,000$ will be hefty…

can always send as a gift :slight_smile:

The bumper lights I sold to u are going on this xsi?!?!?

Only if shipping wasn’t so crazy I wouldve let u have the 91 bumper with oem lip for free.

nice pics.

whoa whoa whoa… yes, they will be on this car and you have an oem lip for a 91 bumper with the bumper attached? we can still do business… email me spoopr101 at yahoo.com

thanks man…

so today is a nice update…
i got my lugs and my valve stems on

and here are some pictures from the photo shoot run we had yesterday…





















thanks for sharing the pics. you car looks good as those super cars if not better. props to you man!

Scenery looks just as beautiful as all the rides. Loving this thread. Keep it up:up:

thanks man…

cool stuff arrived…

i put on my bumper lights. the fitment isnt perfect but thats expected with ebay stuff. im probably going to do the tamiya paint on the oem ones. the gap on the lights is going to bother me.




and i see my car used to have a parking pole…
