HKPRO5's Supercharger Build Thread

[HKPRO5]

Those are not the exact rims. Tire size is... 225/40 18 rims are actually +48.


This rims are sick. They are forged and light as s***.

I'm cleaning them as I'm tyPing. Waiting for the cleaner to set in.

Going to put them on tomorrow. Came with hub centric rings too.

Not bad for $400 plus my ms6 rims. =)

 

[ajkulish]

very cool. They will look GREAT on classic red.

 

[HKPRO5]

Got them all cleaned up. Damn. I thought they were bronze when I got them......When i cleaned them off they were gun metal! They were crazy dirty. They are light as hell! Lighter than my FDs. Got them for a REALLY good price.

$400 plus my MS6s. The tires are new, and the rims are only 6 months old. I looked at the retail price of these...CRAZY!

 

[ajkulish]

i cant wait to see these on.

 

[Lewis7789]

Wow, man. That's an awesome deal! I can't wait to see them mounted too. Are you going to rub with 225 in the back though?

 

[HKPRO5]

I had the 225s on the MS6 wheels with no rubbing. (I am rolled though) Well see how it goes.

Still need to adjust the suspension.

 

[ajkulish]

looks good, but those are some meaty tires! and whats with the side skirts.

[ajkulish]

[HKPRO5]

idk. depends.

Got the other V-Band clamp today. Installed. No leaks in the exhaust!

Still looking for a cap for the EGR bung on the headers.
5/8" FIP didnt fit
1/2" didnt fit.
Im going to have to check the 626 forums for the size.

hmmm not sure whats next, after the EGR.

Ill see if I can get a video of the exhaust.

 

[justanothermp5]

5/8 FIP didnt fit? really? dam man....was it too big or too small?
i swear thats what fit on mine

 

[HKPRO5]

Big. The 626 bung is smaller.

 

[ajkulish]

what autocross class do you run? sm?

 

[HKPRO5]

Yup, SM5. =)

Im faster than the turbo integers, civics, but there are. 2 E30 M3s that leave me in the dust. (like 4 sec difference)

 

[ajkulish]

I was hoping to be in the stu classs. But oh well. Here our sm class has evos and stis and vettes and twin turbo rx7s... great...

 

[HKPRO5]

Have the tech inspector thoroughly check to see if you can go in another class.

 

[ajkulish]

no st class lets you bolt on forced induction :/ oh well.

 

[bedwards6954]
