Modifications To Your Car?

[jovens9]

I thought starting a thread about what ppl have done to their cars would be a good idea. I'm sure a lot of us would like to see the before and after pics of the changes we've done to our cars, and a lot of ppl would like to show them off .

Maybe just show before and after pics..

What it's done..

And how much its cost

first got it..

almost to where it is now..

[sean133]

well mine is pretty simple so far... i bought a burgundy r33 gtst with a silly veilside bodykit, it was way too low and was a monstrosity, which resulting in me buying a whole new stock series 2 kit, seeing as my roof was fading and bonnet needed attention aswel as the new kit, a full respray happened. before this i bought a new dump pipe and high flow cat, after the spray i bought a new xforce cat back exhaust with electronic varex cannon as it was straight 4inch piping which sounded amazing and loud, but was not good for cop attention.

and in the last 6 months of owning it ive bought odds and ends for the cosmetic side of things, like series 2 steering wheel, nismo indicators, etc etc.. never touched the engine because it was always in top nick, and now its going to be up for sale soon so i can upgrade to a gtr!!!!

and also, how do you guys post pictures that size and that quality? ill post some of mine if ii can figure it out.

[jovens9]

Got to admit before joining this website actualy had hardly any respect for r33s.. but this thread n the pics of them, especially aberax has actually made me re-consider.. that is one nice looking clean r33

That rx-7 is fkin mint.. would like 2 kno how quick it is and wat u actually use it for (track drag or just show)

And stang happy 2 see u realised that a black boot doesnt make a car look better on its own haha wat else u done to it ?

And type.. ive already admitted i don't kno too much about cars but physically u done much to it like second pic looks darker but guessing uve worked on the engine mainly? made much difference in power?

Come on guys I kno all of us make modifications 2 our cars mainly to make it more powerful n look better for our own reasons but we also do it because we want others 2 appreciate it so.. put ur cars on here tell us how much it costs ( so we know wat 2 do to ours) and also just 2 give alot of ppl ideas about wat 2 do 2 their cars and so we can admire some nice cars..

And tbh I'm a fair noob when it comes 2 cars and im sure a few others are so if u show wat uve done n explain wat its done n y... no1 will complain..

[rad100]

lol @ costs...

bought car for $14.8k

would have spent 30k on getting it to where it is now!

[jovens9]

fkk bro.. i guess thats wat happens when u love a car hey, ive been told not 2 buy a gt cause i can wait for 4 years n buy a peice of crap in the mean time... but i guess its all about lovin the car u have n enjoying it, then again that is a lot of money

U got a recent pic of it? wat powers it got.. and u regret it?

[rad100]

sometimes i look at it and say why, but i dont for one regret it, its not all just about the car, its about the friends you have made along the way!

and i last made 380kw on a hub dyno, but goes for a new tune tomorrow.

so im thinking around 350kw on 25psi.

check my build thread

I challenge you to find either my car rego, phone number, address or anything else that would indicate who owns my car (i.e. who i am) or where it is located . I have always been very careful about what pictures are posted and anything that indicates who D_Stirls actually is, the only thing that has been posted is that my name is Dale.

EDIT!! actually at the moment there are 3 threads with my number in them but i'll deal with them shortly.

Also there is no connection between FB account and my D_Stirls persona, and unless i've accepted you you can't see anything on there anyway.
