JDMTC5 Build thread
This is my tC and I love it cause it's mine in 13 months. It's coming out how I want it to look like and enjoy.
First 3 mods in the first 300 miles lol. HKS exhaust, B&M shifter, Agency Power pulley.
Drop the her 2 in w/ Eibach Sportlines, Painted my stock wheels bronze.
DME header, Invidia S-pipe, Fujita5 Intake, Ingalls ETD, Greddy front and rear strut bars and Hotchkis sway bars and Dezod rear end links.
Got a used VIS carbon trunk w/ glass.
Time to for a change paint my wheels purple, window visors, Karminari hood (Xmas give from girl friend), APR wind splitter.
Old 6k HID (in my truck now have 6k 55w current), Formula D Radiator plate.
Water pump went bad... So upgrade time lol.
Custom purple coolant add.
Bought Konig runaways (17x
than powder coated them. Painted calipers gold and installed APR canards.
Painted interior time.
Got a Candy Purple valve cover, TRD Supercharger(fun)
Installed 08 grills, painted both emblems, installed hood extenders(because I had use stock airbox and sits high to close. Will lower to cut my cold air)
New Nation badge.
DEZOD catted header installed
Cut to fit Fujita5 CAI and VMS gold fender washers.
Just came up on a RS1 kit colored match what y'all think.
Reclear coated hood and dropped on Tein basic

Haha yeah to weird.! Never would of thought that.!
I like your hood did you buy that brand new? I still want a splitter but haven't brought my self to by it yet since I have a lot of CF On my car might as well keep on going with that.
Your engine bay looks nice what made you go with purple theme?

The reason I went with purple was thanks to my friend. He showed me a spray can of purple and like it. It could me about 2 months to think about doing my rims that color cause I was getting bored with the bronze look. plus I wanted to be different from everybody else.
