Goodluck on your studies too! Yeah, go finish your project in 2 years time. That way you'll be able to appreciate your car more!

Pinoy in Canada! Hope to see you sometime there. My brothers from Toronto. Im here in Manila right now

Stay Fresh...Keep it Clean!

- Wed Jul 30, 2008 4:15 am #63877 Cool. But I'm on the west side bro, dito sa Alberta. And thanks for the goodluck, I am happy with her right now. I'm just done sanding her and putting primer on most of the car. Hopefully I can save enough to get her painted before winter time.

Btw, I scratched the Tokico Illuminas/AGX+Skunk2 combo. Anybody have suggestions on full coilover set-ups?

EDIT: I uploaded some pics that I have on my pc. It shows my major rust spots that I will eliminate in the future by getting new metal welded to it. And my side moldings are out so the holes will be filled with metal plates too.

As for my suspension question, I've decided that I'll go with the Function & Form Type I or maybe the Tein Basic damper set-up.

if your up for a daily grind car for Erika, suit her up with lowering springs for that comfy strong ride. For Boogie I have installed on coilover sleeves and its not the same ride has the lowering ones. though its still comfy ride for me because i still have the oem shocks installed.

- Fri Aug 01, 2008 4:22 am #64180 Well, yeah I have just coilover sleeves for now that's why I'm going for a full coilover set-up. I found those Function & Form Type I on eBay and did some reading on reviews and they are good for a new company. THe price ain't bad either!

- Mon Aug 04, 2008 1:44 am #64450 how's the eg sedan scenes over there? are they as much as the hatches or coupes?

how's the eg sedan scenes over there? are they as much as the hatches or coupes?

Not really man, as far as I know it's only me and a friend who's spending time trying to do a sedan. It's either coupes or hatches. Not a lot of EG sedan love around here, they all think 4doors are only for family cars.

- Tue Aug 05, 2008 2:43 pm #64768 u shuld move here man !! theres lots of love for these sedans here. wait till u get to the breakers/chop shop, theres tonnes of JDM parts for the sedans. We sedans gets as much loves as the hatches !!
Coupes though are very rare down here...
