LOVE THOSE WHEELS !!!

These hi-res photos take forever to load; especially the first one

How did you get the "Sport 20" version of Protege5 in Canada?

I didnt lower my car at all
notice that the back are full of ppl
when my car full load and my tires rub the fender like crazy
I wanna lower it
but dont know if i lower it, will the tires still rub the fender or not

The sport20 sticker i custom it myself using Photoshop,they look tight right ? but too bad that i made them so small
gotta redo it somehow

the rims are 17 ADR DTM
and yeah, white rims does stand out the Blue pretty much

also i've change the fog light to super Yellow
thx guys

I like the rims alot. I'm thinking of getting some white rims for my car also. What % ting is that? If you get the FSZE then the sport 20 badge is almost true. Just need AWD

Who cares about the Type R or Civic

it's still looks good in my opinion
I didnt lower it

just the back full of ppl so it looks like it is lowered

the tint is 15% tint

good point

just today I was going through a website someone posted in another section and I found a diagram of the ECU for a 2WD FS-ZE. Here's a link:

http://www.geocities.co.jp/MotorCity...modify07-2.htm


www.corksport.com has all the sport 20 badges.

It'd be cool if you did swap the fs-ze, though

but you are badging it something that it is not. is it RHD? no then it will never be a sport 20 no matter what you do to it. rebadging=rice. thats like driving a 6 cyl mustang and putting GT badging on it. but its your car, and this is just my opinion. good luck on modding your car.

gok, have you seen Jeremy Dehart's car?

he has a blue 2000 ES which has the sport 20 kit, fs-ze engine, and yes, the badges to match. It is a beautiful car. The only major difference between his car and the real sport 20 is, he has a sedan (not the hatchback). Of course everyone has their own opinion but, in his case I think the badges are a nice touch. It's different that driving a dx civic and adding an Si badge. Then again, If you put the B16a engine in the dx, the badge would suit the car. Just my opinion, though.

Anyone wanna post a pic of Jeremy Dehart's car?

hey he asked "let me know how you think" so i replied. i see nothing wrong with motor swaps and getting JDM body panels, but misbadging is taboo to me. One of my friends has a 98 DX with a b16a2 motor swap but he refuses to put the Si badge on due to the fact that its not just the motor that separtes a Si from a DX. plus he just loves beating cars with his simple "DX" but anyways, beautiful car and good luck with it. you make the car payments on it so nobody has the right to tell you what to do to your car, i was just "letting you know how i think".
