Hello All! I am Nic (screen name Driftphantom) down here in sunny California. Fresh out of university, I work in an office as ordinary desk jockey. After a few weeks of searching for a good daily, I settled on this mint 02 VW Bora v6 with 87,500 miles. This was a garage kept car all its life, so the paint and interior are pretty good nick. This car came out to V$6,400 which may have been a little pricy but oh well haha. 3/12/16- Purchased Car Spoiler: Year: 2002 Make: VW Model: Bora v6 Trans: MT

I miss the ducktail too, but I think I am pretty satisfied with this new setup for now 😃 speaking of a new aero setup..

Here is the intergra 2.0! In addition to a new one-off custom wing, this car has been kitted with full 100% authentic Mugen Aero kit (-V$2,000). I had to wait several weeks for this to finally show up Stateside and I believe I am one of very few with this kit in America. any other Mugen Dc5 owners hit me up! lol. This kit wasn't the only thing to arrive this week.. my second car did as well.

NEW DRIFT CAR??

What you see here is a 96 Nissan Silvia Q's in Kuro Black. This Zenki was imported by a legitimate RI and cleared with customs for 13,750 with the non-turbo sr20de and roughly 77,000 Miles on the clock (when you convert from KM). Now I know what you are thinking.. "oh look another s-chassis" and you are right. But this car is popular for a reason. And this one is going to be more than a street shark like my z33.. This is getting the professional street legal treatment, as I am thinking of traveling with it.. stay tuned. I may start stripping the chassis tonight

Well Good luck with the S14.. They can be a hassle sometimes. I Would've sold you the Old Kouki Parts from Mine and dropped them off on My way back to Nevada, except I just got them sold today!

12/26/16 Update time!

First we have a relatively small update on the Silvia. The battery has been relocated to the trunk as well as the Rollcage being put in and welded to the chassis. most of the interior is back in, except for the seats I have to order and a new steering wheel. the stock Silvia steering wheel with air bag is for sale V$150. Me and the guys here at Green Slip also took apart the front end checking for any signs of rust and to map out the location for the "small turbo" and piping upgrade. stay tuned for that!

And now for the big one..

INTEGRA V2

4 days ago the car went off to paint and came back in this sexy as Milano Red. It was a hard choice between this and Championship White, but I think I made the right decision when I see this thing under the lights

After getting her back that day, by nightfall she had the new wheels on:

That's right! SSR Vienna Kreis! Spec'd out to 18x10.5 these are even wider than my previous set of Abstract luxury wheels. The front fenders had to undergo a hell of a lot more stretching to get this car to turn with such fitment. the front Camber was also increased by another -.5 degrees.. lets hope these toyo side walls are up to the challenge. More photos of the new setup soon. Also, Anyone know a shop with a Big Brake Kit for the Dc5 chassis? New brakes and seats would complement her nicely

Damn that color is hot, I like it. Btw check on the internet when I bought the Brembo GT kit for my R32, I found it on the internet and it costed around V$3500 and came to the garage in 1 week they ship world wide, just go there type the cars manufacturing year, model etc and it will pop out all the brakes that fir your car

Today I took some quick pics of the dc5 at work, because yes, she is still a daily driver even with double digit camber, She has been though countless tweaks and changes and I am still thinking of more ways to switch her up. here is a throw back to when I first brought her home and today:

Our newest modification to the car is the new Brembo Big brake kit. The kit included 300mm slotted disk and 4 piston calipers for all four corners of the car. I must admit, that red looks sweet against the Milano red paint. Side note: The Viennas are for Sale or trade for BBS RS in 17 or 18 inches

Finally for our little update are my new taillights. Just like the headlights, these are legit dc5 R lights, but these were found locally on the rsx forums. They complete my "type-R" inspired clone lol

Lol thank you for the kind words! If you want to run onikyan fitment just make sure you take all the proper steps. Don't cheap out when it comes to upper and lower control arms, camber plates etc. I had an FRS a while ago and yours really makes me want another I will be watching with great interest at your build!

1/7/16-

Today I took the ol' Integra out for a cruise. Sunroof open, windows down. Low and slow as I scraped through the city

Pulling out the driveway is always fun lol

Stopped in the streets

Parked up outside the local café, as me and my lady decided to grab some lunch

Oh! I almost forgot about the new seats! Check out my bride Lowmax seats. They are surprisingly comfortable lol I am loving riding in them

PS: Should I get another frs?

I'll just say nothing about the resell value, but who cares about that ¯_(ツ)_/¯

WHo said anything about selling? Lol JK, resale is gonna be horrid but I do still have alot of the OEM stuff including suspension so we shall see. At most this car will probably fetch V$4,500 in it's stock configuration with all the miles I have put on it. Definitely taking all my custom stuff of if this car gets sold and parting it out, alot more profitable that way

underbody doesn't look that good I guess right? Scrape for life though

Gorgeous Dc5 You got mate

The road is relatively flat where I live, and the body kit soaks up most of the punishment. I did eventually have to remove my CAT but the frame is still in good shape for the car's age. It is 13 years old after all. The sub frame has not sustained any damage besides some minor scrapes. Overall the car is still in decent shape haha are you interested in buying? I know big camber isn't everyone's taste, so I would be willing to revert back to stock. I'll even throw in the Viennas
