Hey everyone I was wondering if you guys can teach me a little about building a car. I'm not a total amateur but I'm still naive when it comes to cars. I've broken down a list of part I'm looking to install but every so often I come into a problem I don't understand.
Current Problem: Wheels & Tires- I found these Enkei TS-5 rims that I like but when it comes to offset, backspacing, and stuff like that I'm lost. I'm looking to uprade to a 17" from a 15" and I'm not sure what tire size I want. In the future I plan on putting on some widebody fender flares or something. I like the side of the tires to stick out a little.
Engine Build: My EJ22 that the car came with just about blew up do to rod knock (probably why the guy was selling it) so I swapped a EJ20 in it for now. I plan on putting something more powerful in it but I'm trying to discover the secrets of engine building specifically what Prime Motoring does to get 1000hp out of their EJ's.
Transmission: Anyone know of a strong 6MT that will work with my 99.
Build Plan:
Suspension: BC Racing (BR, DS, RM?) & Whiteline 22mm w/ Strut Towers
Wheels & Tires: Bronze Enkei TS-R 17×9 & Bridgestone Potenza RE-71R
Headlight: Kaizen Lighting (Haven't found any aftermarket taillights)
Brakes: [unknown]
Seats & Steering Wheel : [unknown]
Aero: [unknown]
Engine & Transmission: 202006 Had to Replace EJ22 with EJ20. Looking into what Prime Motoring does to get 1000hp EJ's. Hoping I fine a 6speed MT that'll work but idk.
Wrap: Satin Grey
Turbo: [unknown]
