Nice mate, I would have kept it NHB myself, the front looks nice and aggressive.

How much is she lowered on the teins?

[canman]

NHB ?

Not sure how much lower it is since we remade all the panels, it's hard to judge !!

i have to admire the scale of this project but i have two observations. the car was looking absolutely mint untill i saw the front lip spoiler and the 'chrome' paintwork. you are right it does look patchy but being at the cutting edge of style/design gives you much cajones in my opinion. Still cant wait to see the finished article though 8)

[canman]

It'll never suit everyones tastes, but I do think it'll make more sense to look at when it's all the same colour.

Front lip is Mugen !

[Monkey boy Kev]

Loving the look of this beast and cant wait to see the finished pics.

Especially liking those wheels.

[Jocelyn Hills]

Looking good 8)

Has a similar agressive stance to that of the Focus RS

Cant wait to see this finished,fair play,lot of hard work gone into this! 8) 8)

Well this should be the last update before the car is ready to have some proper photo's taken outside in the "real" world

Going to be putting all the interior and trying to get the car back together and ready for it's engine and gearbox this weekend !!!

We've put the final coat of chrome on and it's come up more bling than we got with the last cover so that's cool.

Best pics I could get I'm afraid with the camera phone..........

Roof is going to be black.........

Second shot shows a better idea of what the reflection is like on the cars finish........

Night Hawk Black mate, thats just me my car always has to be black.

Still it looks great, the front is 8)

[TerryCTR]

What size are they wheels mate the look huge in the bottom pics, they really suit the car.

How much are they?

[canman]

They're 18x8.5

They're a +25 offset instead of the factory +45 and we've got some bolt on spacers on there too which are also 20mm so it's a fair bit wider overall.

We're looking at changing the suspension from a DC5 integra onto it as I'm told the whole setup is slightly longer than the EP3's and so it'll help put the geometry back to where it should be as I'm not too sure about the effect the extra track will have on the car.............

We'll see when it's back up and running under it's own steam......

Glad you all like what we've been trying to do, I'm totally stoked with the results........couldn't have come out better as far as I'm concerned.....

[Kei-Racer]

Yeah Abbey Motorsport are supplying me with a JRSC and we've already got an AEM CAI, 5Zigen Exhaust, DC Sports headers, and we've got a Hondata K-Pro to go in it.

Just deciding on cams, are there any suggestions on a good supercharged cam for the K20 from you guys ?? I've got some information, but you can never have too many opinions !!

Should be awesomely quick when finished, I want it to go every bit as well as it looks. going put some Stoptech brakes on it too as I have a set on my GTR and they're by far the best brakes I've had on a car, bar none..........Brembo, Endless and AP included............just stunning.
