Which bumper should i go with?

[crimsonGST]

Yeah weather down here is perfect and I got the car all running and waxed up. Then what do you know, I get sick. Hasn't stopped me from driving but still a bummer. I forget, you ever decide on your turbo setup?

 

[SupremeDsm]

ya im going with the gt35r turbo set up.. that is what sbr recommended for the engine!! i just cant wait to get it back out on the street..

 

[EventsCo21XL]

I can't wait to see what happens with your car Supreme. Post a video when its all done, I wanna see that thing fly

 

[SupremeDsm]

maybe i should put some wings on it so that it can fly jk!! ya im pretty excited to see it done also. wonder what its going to run..

 

[crimsonGST]

First things first, get that thing to a dyno and start tuning. Any idea of projected horsepower?

 

[gnen1st]

when this motor goes ill be building a stroked 6 bolt with a gt35r also. when my vettes paid off im going to build it up all motor wifey won't let me build it up to then

 

[SupremeDsm]

I've seen bigger


no ####

 

[SupremeDsm]

of course, i have seen bigger myself but mine is pretty big... and you cant even see it all because the bumper top covers up 1/3 of it..

P.S: can someone give me a link where i can buy like a piece to remove my 2 air vents above my radio and allow my afc to be mounted into it.. like a bezel type like deal i guess is what it would be for the afc. thanks

I think extreme PSI might

 

[SupremeDsm]

Also do i have to hard wire it or is there a plug that i guy buy. someone was saying something about a plug that i could buy instead of having to hard wire everything. they said they are unsure if it is for dsm but they know they got it for hondas.

 

[crimsonGST]

What kind of suspension was that?? And since you already had all the susupension and wheels off, I would respray your wheel wells black. Makes it real clean looking.

 

[SupremeDsm]

ya i got some undercoating that im going to be spraying up into there to protect the wheel wells from rusting. and that was just a knock off suspension from a cheap place..

We did it to my n/t when I replaced the struts and it really made everything blend better. And yeah I asked cause I had not seen red suspension before

 

[SupremeDsm]

ya that suspension is garbage. i busted 3 shocks in 4 days.. haha such junk. and ya i agree on the fender wells. im going to go get some undercoat tomorrow from autozone and do that ill post up some pictures of it. i was actually thinking of getting the whole underside undercoated because it is rust free under there and i want it to stay that way!!!

 

[crimsonGST]

That would be cool, have you ever thought of looking for the 95 side skirts? They're about as aggressive as the 2gb front, and make the car look really mod, but keeps the OEM flavor

 

[SupremeDsm]

i got the 95 side skirts for the car. but the reason that i dont have them on there is because i need the driver side fender cap and some new clips.. but yes i have them. its funny because the only spot of rust on the whole car was found under those side skirts and its about 1in by 1in.. nothing major but im going to have to fix that so it doesnt spread and lead into something horrible. so i might not put them back on until i get that fixed.

 

[crimsonGST]

Oh okay, well then your a step ahead of me. Haha

 

[SupremeDsm]

you should convert your eclipse into a talon 2gb...

 

[crimsonGST]

I really do want to, if I could find all the parts, including the door trim pieces off of the 95's and use the 2gb talon front bumper and the wing, I would do it. But unless you know where some of those parts are locally, it could cost a little over 1k buying online. Used or new.

 

[SupremeDsm]

well like i said there is a 2gb talon here locally in my town for sale with a blown motor and the body is in mint condition for $800 and im sure i can talk them down from that. it has rims on it also but i dont really like them because they are chrome. the car is black ill take some pictures of it today for ya.

 

[SupremeDsm]

yo crimson you think i should get some oem CF fenders? one of my fenders has the bumper bolts broken off in it.. what you think? i was also thinking of getting a CF trunk and doors!

 

[crimsonGST]

The red/carbon theme is really clean, and I think with the black top talon it would like uber nice. There's a spyder on here with the hood and fenders that's red....I'll have to search for the pics...

 

[SupremeDsm]

ya i think that im going to have to order them what about the doors also?
