Turn the gauges on and take a pic of them on so we can let u know what brand it is. And looks like a catch can being used as the radiator overflow like stated already. Lol wtf.

Anyway wtf is going on with that large bolt sticking thru the rear subraframe in pic 005?
After looking over the car, I can't see any evidence this car was silver except for maybe the engine bay?

Underneath, doors, trunk.... I just can't find any Silver.

Also, what are these? Something to do with the Air vents?

Gauges:
Its right there on the faceplate... "Dragon Gauge." An eBay special, I wouldn't put much value in the data they provide.

Those are some air fresheners that clip in the air vents.

The purple arms in the rear are T1R toe arms.

Since you got your fancy Top Secret bumper you seem to be a lot more condescending towards other brands. You and I both know Tein isn't a crappy suspension company, no matter the model.

Let's come down a bit eh?

Uh huh. Funny how you originally challenged me on the bar and when I clarified why I thought it was godspeed you have nothing to say. I could still be wrong and it could be an eibach bar but looking at other parts my bet is still that it is a godspeed bar which is ebay knock off junk.

You'll notice that I said nothing about the coilovers in my OP. I don't think they are that great of a suspension company I never said they were crappy and I did say they are probably the best part on the car. They are definitely better than the other ebay parts on this car but they aren't anything to get excited about (in fact they are likely these which are the cheapest teins you can buy).

So please tell me how my view has changed when you are completely misquoting me. Look at the quote again. Here I'll do it for you.

Tell me again how that is condescending?

OP sounds like you got the car for a steal and I am sure with some work and swapping out some of the ebay junk it could be a nice car.

Oh and the intake I still cannot identify. The filter looks a little like the weapon r filter but the piping runs in the same place as a few cold air intake like ingen. Ingen has a badge on the pipe that comes off the intake manifold. I am still thinking it is maybe a generic intake with a different filter or something but hard to tell.

Underside, engine bay, wheel wells are silverstone (like mine) ... i guess not being albe to find any other evidence of respray means its decent job but the engine bay is a give away. (not neccesarily bad just worth mentioning)

About the bolt from subframe, perhaps there used to be rear diffuser on the car?

Oh and those pink toe arm knuckles look awfuly dry/rusty i would but some light grease on them if you dont want them to sieze up...
