I'll be honest, I'm not a fan of it BUT I respect how you made your vision a reality and stuck to it. It's done well and I love hearing how hyped you are about it. 💯
no hate but what if u brake hard coz u ina hurry and you turn immediately since the front end will be more lower because of braking will the tire hit the fender?
Hey so I may have missed it but how much wider are the fenders now from stock? And exactly what size tires are you running? I was actually about to buy those exact size wheels.
that ugly fenders.. ruin your car imo, but it´s your car, if you like it its the only important thing. But now your car have lost the "racing" aspect that it had before that fenders and lowering arms
hey! SD fam! EK looks dope! seen this because im trying to go lower on my hatch. i got a 16 scion iM and currently running 17x9 wrapped on a 225/45/17 any recommendation?
I’m thinking if I should keep 17’s on my mustang. I want the best performance out of my car and I heard anything after 18” will hurt the performance/acceleration/Cornering etc
Most sports and race tires now are 18s and 19s, anyway. This is to fit bigger brakes so that the heavier cars of today can be slowed more effectively from higher speeds more often before the brakes fade. The performance degredation you hear about is because large-diameter wheels and tires get HEAVY, and reducing unsprung/rotating mass is huge for performance. The solution? Spend money on lightweight forged or semi-forged (rotary forged) wheels. RPF1's are always light and relatively cheap, and they'll come in fitments that should work for most. Just be sure to get them at least 9-wide or they'll have the ugly convex spoke faces. 9+ wide good looking RPF1s only come in 17s and 18s, except the 15x8 which also has the concave/flat (good-looking) face, but that won't fit on your car.
Yo brah, mind if i ask what do you do for a living that able you to sustain such jdm goodies for your car. Would i get similar stuff or better if I do twelve G's a month plus less all taxes? I'm about to get relocate in the US LA Cali probably if not late this year hopefully next year. Thinking of getting an EK9 or the Subby Sti eagle eye as my daily horse. I'd appreciate your response.
Hello, I'd like to ask this question: to have a car identical to yours, if you had someone build it, how much do you think it would cost me? Yes, it's really, really beautiful car
Get paid but you might bring it home and hurt yourself family. Not worth it to me that’s why I chose to stay home while my work still operating because they are “essential” in their book.
Love it or hate it, but it ain't your car!
LATOMMYLA Love it 🥶
How did it affect handling? Did you have to increase spring rates for the fronts?
But then you sold the gem..smh
If the flares didn’t go up so high and interfere with the body line it would look 10x better
I see what your saying bro it's kinda onward a bit .. the dud loves emm
The flares were custom to fit specified sized wheels
Amazing.. Those GTR spec regas look so good on it!
The flare is way too big it just doesn't flow right
GOTTI Reyes good thing its not your car
E J if you a car guy and putting your shit on social media you should be open to criticism 🤷🏽♂️
Mario De Rossi you can be open but no one says you have to accept it 🤷♂️
you can now run big brake kit... and also super wide track width + tires!
It doesn't rub or touch when it's at stand still but when you drive and turn it's gonna rub with any suspension movement, no?
It doesnt my civic.was the samw.and it never rubbed or scraped
@@jzila9900 what tires did u get for 17x9 I bought sum rims but need to buy tires so they fit
Still and will always be one of my favorite EK builds!
I'll be honest, I'm not a fan of it BUT I respect how you made your vision a reality and stuck to it. It's done well and I love hearing how hyped you are about it. 💯
Tommy always coming out with that 🔥 💯
Love the car but the fenders ruined the look of the car
no hate but what if u brake hard coz u ina hurry and you turn immediately since the front end will be more lower because of braking will the tire hit the fender?
If hes turing right his inside left wheel will get more clearence and the outside left wheel will camber in creating more clearance
Good to see the style is timeless... Brings back memories, love the color and love the fitment of the mags... 🤣 🤣
Clean set up my dude🔥🔥. The green and black such a dope color combo. Ur civic honestly goals broo
Lol I knew it was you damn 😂 that's funny. I'm the dude who blew the motor on the infamous Sonic grey fk7..... you guys replaced at your dealership.
So subtle but not that subtle. I like it!
I have a 98 dx with a b16a2 swap but don't have a/c, what parts do I need to match my engine and what parts to match my body for my a/c unit?

Are those sir or type r headlights?
What front fenders are you running?
Teach me your ways Sensai !!!!!!! Fire wheels

Still think the IRP shifter is the best one you've had. And I like big wheel setup, keep it going Tommy.
Looks awesome!
It looks good brotha
dude i just bought an ek4 sedan last month, will definitely follow your te37 set up. looks dope.
I like the old setup, but your car still looks clean AF.
What brand carbon hood is that? Seem safe without hood pins?
I think he said he bought a spoon hood.
Reminds me of that white Itr with the staggered ce28s

Yo tommy you sell wheels?
17x10 on stock ek fenders was normal in 2010
17s are a bitch to fit especially if you don’t want to raise it. Props to you 🙌.
@5:35 idk how many times I rewind lol
tucking hard!!
a legit question, Are you satisfied of your build? especially those fenders?
(this isnt a hater comment)
Hope to see this at eibach if the virus 🦠 doesn’t shut it down 😩 stay safe car lovers ✌️
Dammmmm u can put some fat slicks on it it will be super nice in a track car 🔰
He don’t even drive it on a cruise lol

Love the car
I work in a fairly large ER. Not overreacting.
OEM looks better.

Carlos Portillo I fw the fitment but the fenders 🤢🤢

I respect any build that has work put in ...but ... 17s on àn ek or eg ? No bueno
Imagine ur fenders buckling 😬

You need to fire the guy who painted your car. The bumper and fenders are different color than the rest of the car lol
Time for bigger calipers
