Re: shift's build-that's wassup

Not rolled. I might pull the rears once I get an alignment though, it just depends on how it looks. I think I got lucky with wheel size and tire width when it comes to fitment, but it doesnt look too bad! I am trying to decide on what color to paint the car. Maybe that light blue like the fenders? I...

Re: Fuel Management

It doesnt matter what motor/power-adder you are using, you need an engine management system. You pick whatever you want and go with it. People like aem ems a lot. Read through some supercharger build threads and you will find your answer. You need to do some research. if you just want to manage fuel...

Re: shift's build-that's wassup

Okay I it the tires mounted on the rims. All I need now is to change out the differential, raise the car to appropriate height, and get an alignment.

P.S. I love my black beast clutch setup, its awesome!

Lol, I think its because we get bored too easily. We are always wanting to change it up. I had a civic with the works. Halo lights, body kit, neons, annoying exhaust lol.

Pretty legit setup.

P.s. keep this post as your build thread. So anytime you need to post anything, put it here instead of making new threads. That way you can keep everything organized and log all progress.

Re: shift's build-that's wassup

So I bought these 17X9 +10 5X114.3, I figure I can work with tire sizes to make it sit flush to the fenders. I bought the white ones: http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g438/ramyswar/white_zps9a65ace3.jpg http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g438/ramyswar/hyperblackmrii18side-600x600_zpscdd9b9bd.jpg...

Hey thanks, you're always awesome at helping, I appreciate that a lot.

Weight is not a huge deal to me, i can just turn up the boost :P
Now I need to decide on bronze or white. It all depends on what color I'm going to paint my car.

Re: shift's build-that's wassup

Ive never heard of them, but they dont look too bad. I've been trying to find a 17x9, but it looks like the minimum is a 17x9.5 +5. Im just worried they wont fit well under my front fenders which are +30mm. I might be able to get away with it if I stretch a 235 on there though.
