[ysosrs] dc2r k20 turbo

Finally found some time to take a proper look at the Spoon damper kit. I must say I am pretty happy with the product overall. Looks to be a very quality damper kit.

I had no intentions to ever move away from my Zeal function x but after browsing yahoo auctions I came across these. Brand new with no bid yet, after a few bids it finally came down to 140,000 yen (it was reserved at 140,000 yen so that was the minimum the buyer wanted). Surprisingly no one else bid and I ended up winning these for 140,000 yen. Retail for these from Spoon are 252,000 yen, I ended up saving around $1200 AUD with the current exchange rate.

I'll let the pictures do the talking as no one really wants to hear my crappy story.

I really need to point this out, they came with a screw driver to adjust damper and no spanners are included :thumbdwn:

Sorry for the poor quality pictures, they don't do any justice on how nice these are. inb4buyapropercamera.

Looks great, welcome back! Xray vision FTW! Its nice that you're doing something slecial with your gf, the other aspects of life are important as well. You're a family man! I look forward to more updates

Omg those coilovers are pure sex

Damn thats one helluva collection of te37's. And nice coilovers I've not been much into the jdm thing but I imagine they are like trying to find gold.

My panel beater missed a hole on the rad support so the car had to go back awhile ago.

Once back with the hole shaved and new paint, I removed all the suspension and arms to get them ready for new bushings. Planning on cleaning all the suspension parts on a warmer day before pressing in the new bushings. Thanks to David for giving me a hand and letting me use his impact gun, need one of those in my life.

New year resolution would be to get the car up and running. =]

Damn. At least things are looking up and moving forward! So what's left on the build?

Good stuff there.

Nice update! What's next?

I have a k20a2 long motor at the shop getting built but because it cost quite a bit for what I'm after, I will be picking up a Jdm K20a long motor to use for now this Sunday.

There isn't much left to buy for the car.

*brake tuck (chasebay)
*fuel lines (k-tuned)
*boost solenoid (hondata)
*vacuum box
*I have an exhaust already but just need to modify it to fit
*Lsd for the 5 speed dc5 box and "maybe" switch out the 4.3 fd for a 4.7 (not sure if the 5 speed 4.3 is too long or not)



the rest is just doing things like powder coating a few things, buying the smaller things to make it all work.




I'm aiming to have the motor in by the end of this month give or take a week.

Is the car going to be turbo'd?

Here are your speeds for you to look at.
