Aye , look who´s finally in Japan , MY DC5R ! After almost a month , she is finally here
in Japan with me . A lot of you guys were asking me where´s the Teggy , have i sold the car ? What happened ?
Well , the car was stuck in Europe for at least 2 week because someone at the docks messed up the papers .
But now , she finally is here in her full glory
Just as my DC5R arrived , i´ve installed a brand new Kakimoto exhaust system
on the car because the DC5R was a littlebit 2 quiet for my taste !
+ It looks much better than the stock exhaust !
Oh god , i´ve missed this car so badly ...
I guess it´s time to finally register it here in Japan !
So , the car now sounds good , but other than the Kakimoto exhaust , it looks 2 OEM for me , The mugen rims did gave the car a
littlebit more aggressive look but it´s not enough . So i´ve decided to change the looks a littlebit and i´ve bought a brand new set of Volk Racing TE37 Saga´s - the truest iteration of the original TE37´s , finally in 17´´ sizes Too , really special wheel ! What makes these special over the original TE37? Well it's been 20 years so there is new tech making these wheels stronger and lighter than the original. The barrels have knurled lips
to ensure the tires don't slip, the logo is engraved making it very hard to replicate, and the spokes have cavities in the back to reduce as much weight as possible.
I´ve decided to go with the original color of the wheel , Bronze ! And what about the size ?
The size of the rims are 17x8.0 on all 4 corners of the car . These wheels should be aggressive enough with a right rubber choice for my taste ( Let´s hope ! ) . They are not EXTREMELY aggressive but they are much more " meaner " than the Mugen rims and even more mean than the stock DC5R Rims ! I guess , you could call this a OEM+ + + LMAO
The bronze really makes the red DC5R calipers pop .
Well , that´s it for today guys ! I hope that you´ve enjoyed this update and i can´t wait to see you next time !
