Default Just wanted to introduce myself..

I've Added More Pics at the end of Page 3!
Hey CL, I had been lurkin this forum since last may-ish when i got my '95 5spd sc3 which came with tein basics, fully reupholstered interior, advan siennas, injen intake, and a 3" catback.

after i changed a few small things up

The interior that the previous owner did

(the shift **** was a joke. it's off now since the sc's throws are so dang long already anyway)

It started out slowly mod-wise b/c of my post-carshopping budget.
Since then, I've gotten 17" enkei rpf1s for now which i completely stripped of all finish to get a polished lip , daizen sway bars, roof visor, and traded the double din pioneer that came with the car for a pioneer D3.
it went from

to



Along with those mods, i also had picked this up back in october


My couple next mods will be to get the 5zigens on to replace the single exit 3" catback that's on right now, go lower with maybe stance gr+ or psm coils, get a lip kit on, and 18/19" lightweight wheels to match the kit. Any plans past that are still up in the air.

Anyway, that was my long, drawn-out "hello" to cl, so, thanks for looking!

I'm dying to, but I leave for Irvine at 7-8am, so I don't think my neighbors would appreciate getting woken up by a 6 banger w/ a 3" exhaust haha
and plus, i scrape no matter which entrance i take to aps..

my resonator clearance..
hopefully installing the 5zigens will fix both problems

haha, wonder what my neighbors are thinking on those days I leave the house at 6AM then?
I was having a bit of trouble too entering from the first floor. I'll scrape the frame going in even with a slight angle and scrape the resonators or something going out.
