BroadEJ8s Championship White EJ8

[Busterkun]

This is my EJ8 when I first bought it back in March of Last year



Here it is with my Enkei GF1's


the only thing missing is the ugly red mark on my rear bumper where someone hit me at school:mad:

[2coupes]

those rims are cool!

[JdmRevelations]

its cool your just getting started.. drop ASAP.. ehehe

[MS. EJ8]

nice keep it going!! definately slam it! it'll look greatt

[angrychicken]

What are you future plans?

[G-rat]

good start.....must get low though

[Dina]

Looks good got any plans for it?

[boosteddx]

very clean good start. may i prescribe you a dose of slam that bad boy!!!!

[red4]

coupe looks good with those rims. droppage will be hot. :TU:

[Busterkun]

Yeah thats among the many plans I have. Some things that come to mind is the auto manual swap, engine swap, new suspension and the 99-00 front bumper swap.

[Mugen_Stumpo]

99-00 front bumper swap.


no keep the 96 front and slam it:TU:

[Busterkun]

Yeah it's one of those things i'm still considering so I may not do it, but I do need to replace my hood because my friend thought he'd be cool and jump on it and dent it

[Volume 8]

looks like a good start,i like those wheels.

[Busterkun]

That's what a summer of mowing lawns gets you :TU:

[red4]

Yeah it's one of those things i'm still considering so I may not do it, but I do need to replace my hood because my friend thought he'd be cool and jump on it and dent it

i say keep the 96 front as well. swapping to the kouki front involves swapping the headlights, fenders, bumper, grill, hood, radiator support, etc. or you just spend the money to get a new hood and use the rest of the money on a nice drop. :TU:

[boosteddx]

SOHC VTEC! (Don't mind the grease that's when my tranny exploded on me for no reason)

Clean Car :)

[JdmRevelations]

KEEP THE 96-98 FRONT END!!!!!!!!.. just my opinion.. its your car and money so if it makes you happy to go 99-00 then go for it...

[Busterkun]

I decided to keep it :TU: , but i'm getting the headlights and lip now ;)

[red4]

[Z3R0]

[Busterkun]

not a foot rest but close it has to do with a manual :D

[red4]

clutch pedal??

[Busterkun]

yeah well not just that all 3 lol

[Busterkun]

The UPS guy gave me a visit today :D.

im gonna install them tonight ill get pics when they are in.

5spd here i come!

[red4]

^ be prepared to spend at least an hour or two putting those in. you have to drop the steering wheel/column down and all sorts of crap. plus a couple of the bolts are very hard to get to. also, if you don't have your clutch master cylinder yet you won't be able to put the clutch in. the bolts to mount it are attached to the clutch master cylinder. ;)

[Busterkun]

yeah i have help, plus ive done this before just on a teggie so it isnt new. Thank god theres a how to here :D

[JdmRevelations]

DO IT! get r dun!

[Busterkun]

So after crushing my finger and gashing my arm i got them in heres some pics

[Foos]

Sucks to hear about your accident. Keep your head up and I hope everything gets better from here on out.

[Busterkun]

Im keeping my head up and heres how the winter for my car is gonna go! Since my bro left i got his truck for the time being so my coupe is gonna stay in the garage for the winter! Since the wreck i decided to invest into some jdm headlights ;) . For xmas im buying myself some coilovers finally and some new rims, rota torque in bronze, closest to work cr kai's i can find (what do you think VSM with bronze?:jdm: ) also im gonna finish up my auto to manual by xmas. and gonna get rid of all the dents in my car while its in the garage and get it repainted next spring so my coupe will be going through a lot! :japanflag:

[Foos]

Damn sounds like you got a lot in store for your coupe during the winter. I love bronze wheels on light colored cars...I say go for it. Good luck.

[Busterkun]

Thanks! I forgot to add next paycheck im getting my fog lights too :D

[Busterkun]

my fav

[JPCoop]

I like that last pic too. A nice drop, and a lip then your set!

[Busterkun]

Well since my 18th bday was on wednesday my dad got me some omni power sleeve coilovers! finally a drop :)

[Z3R0]

looking nice there texan brotha!

[Busterkun]

I guess goin to school does pay off I got over $700 for graduation, so im ordering my coilovers, my SiR lip, and buying some nice GSR cloths seats from a local guy.

[furi0usEX]

those should be some really good additions to your ride. post up some pics once you have it all installed.

[G-rat]

i used to have those seats and i loved them...will like them most definatly

[Busterkun]

Mmmmm I love these seats

[JPCoop]

Do those seat hold you in pretty nicely? I really want something that hold me in better

[Busterkun]

Yeah they do, they hold me way better than the sucky stock EJ8 seats. I love them. :D

[onsetofpurity]

lets see the drop! how much was your paintjob?

[Busterkun]

Im workin on the drop lol. The paintjob was $800 and they painted inside the trunk and the door jams.

[JPCoop]

you should use part of that cash for a nice 5 speed! :)

[Busterkun]

you should use part of that cash for a nice 5 speed! :)

Im orderin parts for that too :wink:

[Busterkun]

Well I'm selling the coupe. But don't worry, I've got my eyes set on a mint fresh EM1.

[vti_me]

any more updates?

[Busterkun]

Well the Si I was lookin at got sold. But I'm pickin up a DA Integra as soon as my coupe sells. Here is a couple of pics of the DA:

[JPCoop]

Holy crap that looks clean. Hope it doesn't sell before you can buy it. How much are you letting the EJ8 go for?

[Busterkun]

Haha yeah me too, I talked the guy to $3,000 for the integra. My coupe I'm selling it for $5,000. I originally bought it for $4,000 so either way I'm gaining money out of this. Which means some nifty full coilovers ;)

[G-rat]

nice....suspension is the right was to go for a first mod:TU:

[Volume 8]

Holy crap, that DA is really clean. I'm really jealous, haha. It's got the palmy blue interior too:TU: What trim level is it?

[Busterkun]

Its an ls which is way better than my auto d16 haha

[Volume 8]

Nice, I had an RS and a friend of mine has an LS Special Edition. I freakin' love DA's, can't wait to see what you do with it. If you need any info let me know, I'd be glad to help. I probably still have a lot of random parts laying around so if you need any odds and ends I could probably help you out:TU:

[Busterkun]

Yeah I've always had a fascination with the DA's. I'll probably be asking you question cause I'm a noob when it comes to DA's :lol:. Are these things considered coupes so I can still be in the cc?

[Volume 8]

Haha, I seem to recall Dina saying they were definitely hatches. It's all good though.

[Busterkun]

Aww man that sucks, ohh well I can still enjoy my favorite site. :D

[Busterkun]

Well I sold the coupe today. Still getting the Da as planned though.

[JPCoop]

Pics as soon as you get it!

Curious if you collected any 5-speed parts? If so maybe I can take them off your hands for some $$$.
