1chiban 04-11-2008, 01:54 PM Well, here it is! I know I certainly enjoy looking at all of your cars so hopefully you will enjoy looking at mine :). I'm working on quite a bit right now with this beauty and hopefully within the next month she'll be up to all of your standards!
Cheers,
Thomas
Staehling 04-11-2008, 02:06 PM Looks nice, I like white 8's....throw some black 17"/18"s on there and she'll look like a brand new beast!
Koizumi 04-11-2008, 02:09 PM Nice car!
840rod 04-11-2008, 02:11 PM Looks really good to me Bro... How long have you had it and what have you done so far... ?? just curious.
She looks like a keeper, that's for sure.
Yo,
Rod
1chiban 04-11-2008, 02:11 PM thanks bro! :D.
1chiban 04-11-2008, 02:17 PM lol, dang Rod you posted like the second after I responded to Koizumi. I've had her for believe it or not 8 years already!
It was not until recently I discovered all the neat forums and do hickies online!
I haven't done much but I have a lot in the works, I have installed 6000k HIDs, Dinan Transmission chip, M-Technik Pedals and such,
but I'm within a week or so of ordering the my new set of 18" B505s! and the euro style side mirrors will be close behind!
Thank you all for your nice comments :)!
Cheers,
Thomas

$h1t bro ... you've done alot. Where did you install the ballast for the HID's
Yo,
Rod
1chiban 04-11-2008, 08:09 PM Light Beige interior! Although I really am thinking about redoing it in white :o.
Wayne I'm with you all the way, and I can't wait!
Rod, I think it's kind of up to personal preference and judgment. I ending up sticking mine right in front of the light where the front bumper lips(sorry I know that doesn't make much sense.) But I believe there are atleast 2 other places you can safely attach it, depending on how you want to do it!
Mark850 04-11-2008, 08:45 PM Looks very nice and clean..White does compliment the 8 well..
1chiban 04-12-2008, 08:08 AM hey Mark, thank you very much!
prit singh 04-12-2008, 08:31 AM Nice
I like the 8 in white
1chiban 04-12-2008, 09:37 AM thank you Prit!

pinned 04-13-2008, 01:13 AM Nice!!!!! Go 19's with 245's and 285's...........youll be the envy
1chiban 04-13-2008, 07:12 AM hehe, thanks pinned! and I honestly would consider going 19" if I could find the B505s that size.
Cheers!
Thomas
8eights 04-13-2008, 01:22 PM Nice clean 8 there, Glad to see it!
RockyMtn8 04-13-2008, 02:40 PM Looks real nice. Glad to hear you're a long time owner. You guys in Calif must have some smooth roads. With the potholes we have in Colorado, I'd bend a 19" rim on the first drive!
1chiban 04-14-2008, 06:12 AM thanks for the nice comments guys :).
Rocky, sadly bro we have quite a collection of potholes... you memorize where they are and avoid them :).
whale 04-14-2008, 06:48 PM Once you go past 17" the tire prices climb rapidly, plus the ride gets harsher. I personally think 17" gives a nicer ride whereas 18" the ride is acceptable but handling performance improves. If you've got the bucks and performance is your priority then 19" is what most seem to like (watch out for pot holes and steel construction plates).
