so yeah i just finished doing alot of work on the car to get it from a virtually junkyard stage to the stage you see here


and well, i'm stoked.

enough blabbing here's some of my pics



ha ha just kidding,


this is when i didn't have the scoop on that well but it worked good



kinda dark... i know




MUCH bigger


all clean! and it kindda looks like i have jdm fogs in, but believe me.. i dont




tha new scoop


so it was 11 degrees out when i did this too.... all the water froze on the car like instantly.



and i took a bunch of pictures of how i installed the rs scoop, i was thinking about doing a thread.

let me know if you want pics or anything.

Lookin good... I say paint the scoop body color then it will look really good!

I was gettin ready to PM you because we kept postin in all the same thread but I had no clue what you drove...

Very Nice!

I like the black scoop on this one. Please do post on how you did it for sure.

Rock on! Interior pics?

AW

What is the little red button on the normally blank panel in the dash shot?

I miss my turbo bumper ><

So it is a Touring Wagon or does it just have the hood and bumper???

little red button = little red led for alarm prolly. It's where my led is

oh, it is a touring turbo machine of death

the red led deal is.. a red led
ha ha it came on when i had the ignition kill (bad idea) in the car, along with the security system and an auto door opener. all that bogus was making my car randomly not start so i had just the ignition kill and auto opener deal removed.


AND....
im putting in the my jdm fogs right NOW!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

yeah i figured it out with alot of help from a friend.

super stoked you don't even know

the fogs are brighter than my headlights and all the other lights my car has, and the sun....COMBINED!!!

it's crazy and no i'm not lying.

and yeah i'll post up some pics of the hood scoop install tomorrow
for ya AW. it was alot easier than i made it... as with everything i do with the car

Glad you guys like it

Take pic's with the fog's on should techically be difficult to see though since it is brighter then the sun lol. Then again your lights look VERYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY dim I think you need to clean lens dude and get some silverstars.

do you really think they're that dim?
well i guess you aren't staring at my car right now but i just sandpapered my life away only afew months ago on them.

they're pretty clean, i think i need to angle them better or build some custom hawtness.

something like evolution's headlights would be ultimate.

and wow i need to get back into the garage.
gotta get em' done!
ok going

ok i just installed the fogs.
yeah!

heres a pic of my car with them on.

Holy moly!!

WOW! After that pic, my fog light install is priority one.

Hahahahahaha.

That's amazing. JDM FTW!!

ha ha ha i told you they were brighter than the sun


glad everyone got that.


but really though here are my new pics





ha ha can anyone tell what size fuse i used?
thanks hocrest if you read this





I love the open door shots for some reason...

That looks AWESOME!! Ill bet you used a 20AMP. Or you just got a piece of wire LOL!

Nice car.


PS I know where you live.

Wow those really are super bright.

sweet wagon man!

nice painted headlights

yes sir,
i used a 30 ?watt? fuse that i wired right into the switch, and my power comes right off the battery so i can turn them off and on when the car is off.

yes they are, and they are also angled up REALLY bad so can't use them much without blinding people yet.
gotta fix that

thanks, you did a write up right?
i think we're the only people on here that did this.

lol what I mean't by "did you just use a wire" is some people just jump the fuse with a wire and call that a fuse.

You didn't use a relay? The switch will melt. I got a Hella kit for my GL sedan that had a bad relay with it, being too lazy to replace it I directly wired through the switch. The first one lasted a few weeks, the second one about the same but shorted so that the lights were constantly on, the third was rated for 30A and still went bad (I was stubbornly determined to get them to work at that point). Strangely, it usually didn't blow the fuse any of those times and I believe I used 20A. I got a new relay before the car burned up.

You can get power for the switch from something other than the lights if you want to use them without the headlights (which is generally illegal, but works better in near white-out snow). On the wagon, I tied them to the parking lights.

Yeah I would tie fogs to the parking light. Although it would be nice to have it so they turn off when the high beams come on.
