damn Ron thats sik!!! i like the new facelift!!!

Dude what navi or screen is that? It looks sick!

Is that one of those mirrors like the UPS drivers have on your hatch?

noice I likey...only thing I say is that dash table needs to go..its sits way to high and does not match...but if you likey is all dat matters.

I gotta be honest man I think that middle spoiler in your rear is killing it, the rest is HOT though! :biggthumpup:

I think it came out much hotter than I expected!!!! Dang the lights look Wayyyyy better that I thought..... I like the wing more than I expected I would too..... looks amazing...... so smoooth....

the pics dont do much justice for me. but in person, its a whole different story. thing is sick!!!

I like it Ron..way better than before. That grill still seems out of place for me.  It seems like it sticks out too much.  Just my opinion.  I on the other hand like the middle rear spoiler, but think that a more aggressive upper spoiler is needed to pull it off..otherwise..yah, it's a bit much.

Don't really feel about the mid wing....not a perfect match with the garson kit...nice Marlboro though

i like the wheel , there rest just to crowded for my taste

looks dope Ron I love everything about it...

i love the front end, but not feelin the midwing and clear taillights.

the table looks so wierd because its high up.

Beautiful.  I like all the changes except the tailights and the mid-wing.  Other than that it's Sex.  
 
That's your Rx-7 with the Kranze's right.   
 
That car is out of this world.  Words cannot describe how much I love the Stance/fittment on that car.  
 
I'm rebuilding my wheels for my Z and doing some bodywork and hopefully my stance/fittment will be in that neighborhood.  
 
Sick rides tho'

thanks....not my rx anymore..it started as mine then was a team project and now its one of my  team members car....we all put alot of work into it...=)

Cars like that are what I push to be like fittment wise.  But my own twist of course.

^nice

Hey Ron what screen/navi is that?

looks great... now lose the mid wing and you will be golden ;)

If he were to put that top wing back on, like in his avatar, then it'd all match.

with the new rear rounded bumper..the roof wing boxes out the roof too much and i know the midwing is up there on agressive ness..but its the only one i can find so far...thanks to lowvanu2

Car looks pretty sick.
LOL @ the altezzas

Looking good but I'm not feeling the mid wing and taillights either..

Still have it and nothings changed..

My daughter starts college soon, so no money for awhile..

Keep us posted on the other projects.. One of my friends was interested in the lip kit that you were selling but don't know if your willing to ship to Hawaii..

always willing to ship...question is he willing to pay for shipping..hawaii shipping is killer..:pat:

nice!

wanna trade wheels?=)
car looks great, keep it up

yeah, midwing looks finky. the rounded look of the kit throws the wing off. I'd be like me NOT having my wing.  Go a little more aggressive with teh exhaust

new headlights to complete the front thanks again to lowvanu2

thanks...so far not yet..waiting on a set from big steve...hint hint....and actually im reworking out the tailights and painting them and adding leds in it..should be done by the weekend.

wow, this makes me want to get an ody,lol=)

[quote=EstimaBoy;166971]wow, this makes me want to get an ody,lol=)[/quote]

Do it! Probably easier to work on than a Previa, and the parents might be more willing if you got one of those. Besides, with these Ody's you don't have to cut the skirts like you do on the Previas...

yup and if you run poke wheels or pulled fenders, you dont have to worry about the sliding door..

^^^^^^^^^^Easy with the bashing on the EGG (even if they are all true).

Much props on the new look.  Unlike many I really am diggin the Mid-Wing.........but I think that if the Top Roof Spoiler were bigger it would flow much better.  Keep us updated with you tails and LEDs......looking forward to them pics.

Sukoshiyoshi

Wasn't bashing, just lookin out for the little bro. I like previas, I just hate the motors.

:naughty:dibs on the upper wing!! (hint hint)

^ for sure...
 
heres the pics on the remake of the taillights...painted and light smoked led toos....
more pain in the *** then the headlights

I like, but I think I actually liked them more when they were chrome, or maybe if they were not smoked. Have to pick your brain on the L.E.D setup though....

looking good man!

The rears are different........would like to see some night shots of the rear LEDs.

Little side note.......forgot to write LOL regarding the "bashing" I was just kidding.

ahhh, that brings back memories now...

more to come..working more kinks out

^^^^^^^I guess all you have to do is ask and then you shall receive........those night shots look sweet.  Keep up the sweet modding.  Much Props to you.

Sukoshiyoshi

Yo, props for the change of pace!  Ride is looking nice.  I personally preferred the original headlights or would've left clear.  Not feeling the mid wing either but to each is it's own.  Not hating and much respect.  I've been thinking on getting a daily honda and you got me thinking..

:biggthumpup:

ill get today..sorry..vans been in the shop for a broken throttle cable..

How close to the rear shocks are your rear wheels/tires, bud?  And how much camber do you run in the rear as well?

I love the van, by the way.  It sold me on buying an RA1. ;)  I won't be copying anything you've done, though, as I'd like to be somewhat original with my RA1 (although, I must admit, I LOVE the sunshine roof and would love to do that conversion as well).

kool..theres actually about a 1/8 clearance on the rear shocks..on a really good bump. it barely rubs....with the stock shocks it almost wore a hole through it but its only on the outer cover not hte actual shock...with aftermaket shocks, the shock bodies are a little thiner so it helps in clearance issues. camber is naturally induced with the ride height only thing you can change is really the tow...it affects the position the wheel where it will rub on the fender thats about it....and if you need anything let me know...working on a 5 speed swap now... :biggthumpup: [B][U]so all the ody guys who want to go stick[/U][/B]..hit me up... =)

Thanks for the information. :)

With the 5-speed, will you be modifying some sort of center console for a proper shift boot?  Or is there something else in mind?
