I just picked up my RS1 last Tuesday night and by Wednesday afternoon with 35 miles on it I had installed a set of Tanabe DF210 springs and 18" bronze ADR Fuel rims. I also installed a set of factory foglights while I was at it. A few pics:
Here's stock:

The rims fit nicely in the back:

Here's what it looks like now:

Amazingly the ride isn't as bad as I thought it would be with those tires. It handles great, now I need to get a set of the Hotchkis swaybars. :D

Looks great! Great choice in rims!

Thanks! :D

Lookin good! Those rims are nice, and don't take too much attention away from the paint. Any other mods (sans swaybars) being planned? And, I have been to Manassas before! How ya like that!

NNNIIICCCEEEE!!! i realy like your wheels how mutch were they :lol:

nice rims, i was contemplating them or teh visions. i got the visions in black. didnt like the big lip on the fuels. but they look nice on your car.

Thanks! The next things on the list are: Lo-Jack, K&N Typhoon intake, MagnaFlow cat-back exhaust, and DC Sports header. I also want to get a set of billet grilles to go in the bumper openings. Those would be the bigger things I can think of right now, but I'm sure there'll be quite a few little things here and there.

NNNIIICCCEEEE!!! i realy like your wheels how mutch were they :lol:

They weren't that much, around $550 with shipping (that's just the rims, not with tires).

Damn....nice ride bro! :D

what's the drop on that that you got with those 18's?

Very nice indeed ..... The rims do it justice !!

* How much drop are the springs ?

This is probably a newbie question, but what does the "RS1" designate?

Release Series 1

nice....the bronze looks good with that color paint :wink:

* How much drop are the springs ?
2.2Front -2.0 Rear I have the same springs on m y Cherry xB :wink:

Nice looking ride btw :wink:

Looking good, Dude! :wink:

great job whats next ?

Thanks!
The next thing is going to be Lo-jack, since I can get it for a lot less at my work than through the dealership where I bought the Box. After that, I'm thinking pretty hard about the carbon fiber dash kit after seeing Munch's.

Those Pics look Hot!! I was just looking at those wheels online and was thinking of putting those on the RS1 that I have in stock. Good thing you live in VA. I don't think anyone will have those around here.

Very nice!

that is one nice set up. i really like how everything sits.

Ooooh...aaahhh...

I like it! That is a great color. Nice wheels too.

What size of tires are you running

SWEET! :D Glad my car is an inspiration to others out there :D .

I like! :D And the wheel choice is awesome! Makes me want to get a RS 1 now. I'm thinking of getting Hotchkis sway bar set too. But, I want to know if the dealership will install it for me or do I need to take it to a custom shop?

best lookin rs1 ive seen yet very cool looking

Cool the way the LAVA paint reflects with a yellow hue ... looks like LAVA! I need to see one of these in person.

Thanks!

The color is awesome in the sunlight. Makes me mad it's been raining all day and will continue til Saturday. :x LoL, oh well, what can ya do?

That is SWEET! I'm so jealous, I'm still waiting on my RS1 from the Miller dealership in Manassas, should be here next week!!

Ourisman Scion in Fairfax suckS!

Oh, so your the other one. :D They told me they were getting another one at Miller. I almost went to Ourisman for mine (I work down the street from them), but they didn't know anything about the RS1 when I went to them. And they were more interested in selling me something on the lot than what I wanted. Oh well, Miller is close to home anyway.
Let me know if you want to meet up when you get yours. I can do installs if you're not comfortable doing some things yourself or overpaying the dealership.

Yeah, that would be awesome. So far all I've got the dealer installing is the AEM CAI. I'm planning on putting on 18" rims, the TYC tail lights, and the factory fog lights. But i'm concerned about the fog lights since I've read that it may rub against the CAI and that I may need to cut the panel off the fender? Any input on how hard it was installing them?

Nice wheels. :D I am thinking about the ADR Burnouts in bronze or the Davin Speed 1 if they have them for the box.

Never mind, the dealer quote for the Davins was 1500 per wheel :shock: . Plus the smallest is 18 X 9. DAMN :evil:

That's cool. It was really easy installing the fogs. The hardest part was installing the switch (finding the connector and fishing it through the console). I think one guy on here said all he had to do was move the filter down a little bit with the AEM :?:

Nice wheels...
