that's it for now...i will keep you updated with more pics and news!:drive:
 
superclean example mate. nice!
 
Awesome. Must be a beast to drive.
 
I like the Spoon shirts :nice:
 
Lovely EK9 man, i think OEM mud flaps would be better on it tho, just my opinion :)
 
sweet dude! awesome to see a 9 in its homeland and to have so much work done by spoon themselves!
 
Setup kicks asses and with white Regas looks stunning, but i really don't like mud flaps..this is not a rally car :(
 
Awsome 9 man! 28n's are by far the best wheels for it!

Must be awsome to live in japan, wish i could come home with some "type one" shopping bags!
 
eheh...thank you for your comments and support, about the mud flaps....i know they're awful...it came with it and i really didn't think about take them off...the more i see it with them the more i don't like it...what do you guys think if I shape them better, or completely off? putting some OEM and paint it NH-0?? any suggestion is accepted...
About the toyo RR's: i've tried AD048 and Toyo R888; i just bought the RR's because i've never tried them and i would like to share my experience with them...they have a more aggressive profile compared to the other 2, but they're still considered semi-slick.
The car overall handles and runs like a champ; i love it...one thing i would change is the ecu settings, i don't think i'm using 100% of the car's potential.

on another note, I have a question for the track users and abusers: what is the best camber adjustment [front and rear] for the track? or what are you using?
 
In my opinion, mud flaps, but ONLY OEM, have their places on EK's in SiR-style. EK9's are way better with only EK9 lips.
 
Stunning 9 dude thats a shift sports bonnet you havere aswell mate I have the same one on my facelift ek4 sir really really light
