Kid-Vtek's Canadian EK build: CR-Vtec Turbo

[Topher-EK9]

Lol i meant to say i like how you have not rushed the build..

Think you thought i meant rust

 

[Kid-Vtek]

Haha my bad I read it quickly this morning before work when I'm usually in a zombie-fied state

Update:

Started cleaning up the interior a bit more, getting rid of all the left over sound deadning material

Rolled my front fenders, all i used was a heat gun, hockey puck and a hammer worked quite well.

Rolled the rears with the same method.

i also pulled the rear quarters. since u need the wheels you are fitting the pull i compromised and made some 1" spacers haha

before

after

i used the heat gun and phone book method and here are the results. Note: i removed my coilovers to have maximum "slamness" and i heated the quarters a lot! and gradually worked my way up to the amount of magazines u see in the picture.

this is the other side that has no 1" spacers of roll yet, also keep in mind that wheel has the 1" spacer assay-well

while i had the coils off i lowed it a bit

Update:

Been a while since i last updated because well frankly not much has happen, however since its now spring its time to get the ball rolling. The car has finally been sent off to get the cage made/welded in and shortly after off to paint. i recieved my naca duct and began to retrofit it to the bumper.

Finally the biggest news of all.... my wheels came in. Oh my baby jesus are they gorgeous! pictures do not do them justice.... well after the long wait the secret is revealed.

Wait for it.....



Wait for it.........

Spectrum Silver SSR SP1R 16x8 +26. I cant stop looking at them and the fact that i wont see me car for a few months is even worse than waiting to get them!!!! heres a quick video i shot, i cant wait to see them outside! enjoy

Nice work on the wiring!

 

[EK9cra1g]

Nice build mate . What's the carbon cold air feed thing called? Iv been looking around for the same one just can't find one any where.

 

[Kid-Vtek]

It's an APR naca duct

 

[Kid-Vtek]

Had a small photoshoot in the sunlight, by far the most interesting wheel color out there i dont think i have ever been so happy with a purchase before

 

[spikeyhairdude]

Those wheels. Woow. My new favourite wheels

 

[Kid-Vtek]

Finally got my cage finished she's off for paint now

 

[Kid-Vtek]

Small update:
Got my fancy boost clamps, dam they are nice! I can't wait to install them

I'm dealing with a bunch of garbage with my turbo kit... Pretty much I've been waiting 10 weeks and still nothing.... I won't mention the name of the company yet but they are an American site, quite popular so I'm pretty up set that they have done this to me. I have a Visa claim pending so I've been set back weeks on my build.... Sigh

 

[Topher-EK9]

Liking the updates dude, Slow builds always turn out to be the best Stick at it dude

Cage looks great !!

 

[Kid-Vtek]

Thanks man, I wish things could move along quicker but I keep getting delayed by little things. I guess I can't rush perfection haha

 

[Topher-EK9]

Haha spot on

 

[Kid-Vtek]

Huge update:
went to take a look at my car today, she is in excellent hands!





pulling out dents









the vehicle had side swipe here before



Rust repair







More work







Now the best part the paint! I was going with the GT3 Grey/Black but my body guy he could make it better so he added some flare. The car will get a black base coat followed by



hes going to then add a layer of candy black to add depth. The candy will be followed by a layer of titanium pearl
(titanium pearl on the right, black pearl on the left)



if all goes according to plan i should have her back monday!!! ill have more pictures then enjoy
