Very nice!

AWESOME pics Jesus!

I love the polished slipstreams. But whats with the advan sticker if you have no advan parts? Get rid of that ----...

2 things you got wrong here.
The rims are not Slipstreams or made by rotas ither.
second. Why would you say that i have no advan tires if we haven't talked or seen each other in person to say that.

Anyone can put the advan sticker there or any where else. theirs actually a use for that sticker i thought u knew this. Even if i didn't have advan tires i would still put it on. in the end is my car.

I dont need to see your car in person or talk to you to know you dont have advan tires or any parts to justify putting that on your car. I highly doubt you would shell out the $$$ for a set of advan tires considering you got Slipstreams or whatever brand knockoffs those wheels are. And that pac mall front lip? Come on...

Please enlighten me on the "use" for putting that sticker on the fenders. Do they make your car faster or does it get you mad jdm points?

Yes, its your car, yes you can do whatever you want to it. Thats great. I aint knocking it but just dont fake the funk....the car looks good, but dont front.

Prove me wrong, show me you got advan tires or whatever and I'll eat my words.

nice pics man

nice EL,
never really been a fan of that lip, but i know there isnt much available for EL's
looks good on yours though.
hows the view out of the mirrors? friend of mine had them on his track car and they were brutal.

i have a ferrari emblem on my teg...it's fast!

Dedicated Uno, you sold your OEM HID retrofit? :wtf:


got you beat I have the OEM Lambo "Bull" on my R6 and ----... Im still slow on the track :willy:

Looking at this pic it is possible that he's running the A032R Jonn

From what I can see the Color of the tires is telling me that its not a Street Compound and Tread Design of the tires. Red and Yellow Circles on tires are usually an Advan Marking.

I'll try to bring some Chutnee to go with your words the next time we meet up :p

Not sure what those rims are kinda hard to determine whether they are Desmonds or Rotas

You know your advans more than me, so maybe I am wrong..

Im not eating my words just yet ;)

You know your advans more than me, so maybe I am wrong..but I still dont see anything in that pic, its kinda dark.

If he does have them, good at least he's not like the other 1000 posers who put advan stickers on their car for shits and giggles.

Im not eating my words just yet ;)

Red and Yellow circles mean nothing regarding brand. My Falkens had them too.

But they do look like A032Rs. Or they could be Azenis.

Either way, stickers are rice ;)

Wayne had them on his Integra yet you never ragged on him ... :finger: I don't think Erick has them on his Type-R either ... :willy:

I guess the only way is to have him come to a meet. I'll bring the Chutnee.

really? the word on the street is vinyl adds horsepower, and for a mAd TyTe jaY-Dee-eM advan sticker like that, it must be at least 50hp at the wheels

I rag on Wayne all the time. The same way he rags on me for my garage queen. :finger:

Erick is just a ricer with a bunch of knockoff spoon parts ;)

SHHHHH, everyone thinks I'm running spoons but they are really rotas! As for the stickers....

The previous owner (my boss) had A032R's on the stock 15" rims but took them back to mount on his Panasports that he runs on his SC miata. I kept it on because i thought it looked good and Albert from speedstar was gonna give an "okay" price on the A048's so I figured, hey why not keep it on. But I am not a track ----- or nowhere near close so an R compound would not suit my driving style yet, plus they don't make a 16" tire for my Spoom rims. So I'll prolly keep it on until my front end comes in then whoever buys my fenders will get a JDM treat ;)

I don't think they are A032R's because of this difference in tread near the sidewall. Here is the area I'm talking about.

Good eye Erick. Those are Azenis!

:rolf:


and this is how I know 90% of TI members "push paper" all day!

I don't think they are neither of Azenis 215 nor 615. None of those treads look like that pattern either. I still say A032. The pattern design matches up closest to them.

awsome pics man. we'll hookup sometime soon.

Regardless of the tires the car is clean IMHO. Still wondering what kind of rims those are. The lip looks deeper than the rega's and rota's.

I agree with you. Its neither 215 or 615 or A032. I've been fuking the dog all day at work trying to find a tire to match the tread pattern near the sidewall. The A032 is the closest but not a match.

The search continues....

Maybe Dedicated Uno can chime in and let us in on the mystery.

if those are falkens, this sticker would be work better.

nice pics though.

Burn! I see you have turned into the hatertech no rota nazi Jonn :p Nothing wrong with knock off parts as long as they aren't presented as the orginal. I mean if everyone was rocking authentic spoon and mugen ----, how how special would it be :uhhuh:

Maybe the advan sticker was an authentic advan sticker, like mine :GrinDev:
Anyway, whats the point of loading up a car with race parts like Spoon and Mugen if you are just gonna let it sit in the garage, or never take it to the trrack :nut:

Nice pics, I think I saw you yesterday night around Victoria Park and Finch.


How are the mirrors in terms of looking through them?

The nicest EL I've seen to date

i really like the pics though...clean ride

I learned that from you..remember the whole Jay Smith thing back in the day on HT? The whole drama about his RS?

Funny, I thought we went through this discussion already. You know your old car is for sale right? Maybe you can buy it back and use it for its "intended" purpose that you built it for? Until that car actually sees a lapping day, then thats the day you see that white pos I own hit the track as well. :finger:

I have nothing against knockoff parts. Just dont front like its the real deal, thats my beef with the whole thing..

It saw a couple track days at the drag strip :p Thats more than I can say for yours :finger:
True, I was proud of my Rotas :s:

They might be Rotas, I know that the RegaMasters don't have any engraving on the face of the rim. Lip is usually based on the offset of the rim. The lower the # the bigger the lip.

Drag strip dont mean ----, I thought youre all about track/auto x now?? :jack:
Remember youve owned that car for how long? Ive had this car for only a year now..

Sukh, you are right those arent Regas or Spoons.

The Regas/Spoons have a small dip on the top and bottom of each spoke. And it they dont have the 4 extra bolt holes.

Like you said they dont have engraving on them as well.

What you remind me of is of a kid in elemtry school who goes and buys the most expensive and exclusive basketball shoe. When you don't even play basketball.

I came here to show my pictures. Not to say what brand of things i have on my car. is this about cars or is it about the parts on the car?

For example my rims have a design similar to Desmond/Spoon/Rota ....etc etc
people get confused about the make of the rims...but to some people it doesn't matter because there is more to the game than the brand.

I see people rocking ABS plastic type r lips on all sorts of cars...maybe fake and cheap and pac malls blow out special, but on a nicely done car most enthusists can enjoy the look and appreciate the hard work put into the car. This car is being built to achieve a certain look and style. It gets plenty of looks and compliments. But at the end of the day its for me to look at and enjoy.

Please don't watch my wallet who are you to say that i wouldn't buy Advans.
Do you know what my income is? Are you Revenue Canada? what tax bracket do I belong too? Its not about how you get it, its do you have it!

People who nit pick and hate at every little detail are the ones that ruin the sport.

It feels like I am posting on Honda-Tech.

BTW, I am 20 mad tyte jdm points away from getting a free plane flight to Japan. Now that is hella NICE!!!!!1111!!oneone!!!oo!!!!

How many points did you get for you MAD TyTe SpooooM mirrors?? how about the rear bumper sticker?? Those MAAAD fog lights are SIC SIC SIC, must be sooo foggy in Sauga. that was the honda tech speech!

About the Advan sticker, do some research...

I sold my headlights to do a different retro.

Kywze

were you being sarcastic....because you were preaching about how it doesn't matter how your car is modded, its the people in the club.

Lets make a contest to see how many people are faking the funk on TI!
become part of the funk haters! Anyone with fake parts, stickers, etc.

POST them up!

SmartassHO, your wrong about the rims...and tires....keep guessing...

HKJ
yeah let me know when you are ready with the car.


WildoutWhiteGSR
that wasn't me you seen....the mirrors are fine you can see well out of them...anti glare and they are pretty big...bigger than the Acura Bot mirrors, his are from the states mine are from JAPAN ...do i get points for that?? just kidding. BTW good write up on the GSR rebuild!

anyways im done guys thanks for the comments...both good and bad..

I was going to say what parts I have but since some people on the board seem to know it all....ask them what I have...people who know less about my car tend to appreciate it more.

Funny you mention Baskeball.

Guess what, I have the shoes and I play. I bet you I can eat your food in ball. :finger:

You posted pictures, you got good and bad comments. You know people nitpick and you'll get some not so nice comments, so why do you post if you cant take the criticism?

I aint revenue canada, I dont give a ---- how much you make. All I know is youre faking the funk, you got caught in the corner doing it. Keep faking the funk you seem to be good at it.

Dont hate on my car just because I decide to put REAL parts on it and not front. At least I can put a sticker on and it justifies the parts that I have.

Not really, I am gonna hit the dragstrip to see what numbers I post. I'll hit all types of tracks and just enjoy myself. Its ain't the fastest, Sukh, is probably faster than me in a straight line, it ain't the prettiest, I'll give you that title, and its not the blingiest, Deep would probably take that, but it sure is a lot of fun.

Just get the car out there, cone marks rub off easily:finger: It ain't how you stand by your car :p its how you race it

i still like stickers.
i got these to put on my car along with a couple others
