One Recaro in, one more to go. I desperately needed seats, my oem seats did'nt have any upholstery whatsoever. These are very snug! I dont like the red to much but I bought both in great condition for $500

Some videos and pics to come. Trying to finish installing everything today. Hopefully start it later this week.

Really want to hit 400's with meth, without high 300's I guess. Now that everything is up to par a 35r is the plans for next year 600hp+.

Picked up some 15's to get some slicks as well.:burnout:

Pink Valve cover?:shrug:

Random and ugly. :shrug:

It will look good if the body is painted the same color, otherwise it would follow the honda boy being-cheap-and-painting-engine-parts trend. :bored:

Its a dark purple powdercoat, flash makes it look weird. Far from a honda paint job :) Its better than red/blue/black that everyone and their mom does.

The Honda boys are powdercoating their valve covers weird colors as well. I've got a Honda now so I have to deal with the weird teenagers. :bored:

Ahh I didnt think purple would be to weird, I guess everyone has their own preferences. In person it goes well, it will look better once my car is painted.

I left about 4" leads on each ecu pin so I know the oem color. I also have pinout diagrams that show what goes where..color isnt really needed.

I just wanted something different, goes great with all the black I will have in the engine bay, and the color for the car will be a dark red like salsa red pearl on 08 4runners.

not the least bit pink.maybe someone needs a vision check


car looks good.do you happen do be on pbnation?

They do need a vision check, and yes I am on there.

The color is called candy grape 2 from NIC. You need a paint chip to see a true color, internet and magazines are not true colors. That linen is incredibly far off of purple.

Here is the image straight from the site.

You sure that the powdercoating on the WG is going to hold up? That thing gets extremely hot on my car, I think you might experience some peeling.

Should hold up, people powdercoat lots of random parts. If it doesnt not a big deal Ill sandblast it and keep it silver how it was.
