Installed my steering wheel.





Advan replica wheels... I had trouble with the lug nuts not fitting. I went to a local auto store
and bought these smaller diameter tuner lugs. They didn't have them in black but It was only $30.
It will do for now.

Wow looks great ! All of your mods are very tasteful. I had replica rgii's as my first wheel and I thought they looked better Than the real ones in that size/offset lol (my sig pic)

If they are not real Advan wheels I wish you would either black out the center cap or not run them at all.

It looks good, but I hate how you are faking the funk.

I think you're supposed to use the other lug holes to mount the wheels.

Great job with everything though, that's a lot of work.

What are you lowered on? Looks like a good drop. I missed the meet last year, but I was there
the year before with my silver rsx. and a few years ago with my jdm front white integra.
I'll be there this year. You in that area?

Thanks. Believe me i tried. The other holes were too small, 5x100 probably.

I was on Megan track Coilovers. The ride height wasnt super practical but it still handled nicely for what I used it for. The ride was surprisingly decent despite the higher spring rates & the "cheapness" compared to other brands. I bought the same suspension for my evo and had them previously on my dsm.

Im from buffalo area

I bought a set of Apexi N1 EXV coil overs awhile ago. Might install them today.
They seem to have the same spring rate. 12kg Front and 12kg Rear.
I like skunk2 lowering spring's drop, but I hate that rubs from time to time.
Needed something more stiff.
