My EM2, Finally starting to order some parts.

Post by sammybammy »

What's up guys. Last time I was here was when I was car shopping a long while ago and forgot about this place until I was reminded a few days ago. Well back in last July I bought an 04 EM2 and figured I would post some pics. Yes it's stock other than 6k hids but I have debadged the trunk and taken the front plate bracket off. I would love to do more but I am low on money so more mods will have to wait.

Let me know what you think.

Some suspension modifications
Oem fogs
Dc5 or sedan gauge cluster
Black rsx seats


Other little misc things, but no k20 swap or turbos or anything like that. Just a clean dd car.

After YEARS of searching for these wheels, I finally found a set in furgeson. I know not many will like them but I love them. I just needs some tires. They are rough and need to be refinished, but I finally have them.

They aren't on the car, just sitting in front of my stock wheels.

Are those Ford probe wheels?

I always did like this chassis... I wonder why I never got one.

Also look into getting parts for these from the EL in Canada.

No, they are Enkei Shoguns. They stopped making these in late 90's early 00's. Most people just tossed them out/didn't buy them because of the weight (24.9LBS each). I've always had 5 lug cars before this one and these were VERY hard to find in 5 lugs. I have only seen a few sets of these come up for sale around the country each year. Here is a better pic. I already ordered new stickers for the edge and new center caps and lugs from enkei.

As you can see the tires are shot from someone not getting an allignment.

I've officially had my car for a year now, not much to show for it but I have some things in the works and almost ready to install.

OEM Fogs with 6k hid's
RSX gauge cluster
Have tires for the shoguns, just need lugs
A-pillar gauges (say what you want, I love gauges and got these for dirt cheap. Just need to find a different one than the pointless air/fuel)

its not hard to make these cars look good. slam/wheels (different wheels) done.

stop just buying stuff because you found it cheap.

Find things cheap because I wait until I get a good deal. Not because I randomly come across it. Yes I agree these cars don't need much. I don't want a k swap or turbo. Just some things I enjoy. I've wanted these wheels for a while, if they dont look good to me ill get rid of them. I see the same 15/16s on hondas, some may look good, but they bore me. If these wheels look bad ill just lower on fat fives and call it a day.
