Kei-Hard

Hello all!

Little did I know that with choosing my username in a second, I struck gold!

Being from Brabant in the Netherlands, Kei is a word rarely used outside of our province, usually used to exaggerate how you feel, like “super” excited.

Kei is off course also the small Japanese car.

Kei-Hard can be a play on “Die-Hard” as these things keep going.

So, after this stroke of genius, I bought a few cans of Montana Gold.

Below is my first can emptied… Also a sunstrip added

Once I saw the title pop up on the homepage I instantly knew it just had to be a Brabander.

Welcome fellow Brabander! Cool looking L5 :grin:

Hey!

I’ve been quiet a few days…

But that doesn’t mean I didn’t progress.

Received lowering springs, the car will probably drop 40mm.

Ordered a few odds and ends, Purple el-wire for the interior, which I modified. It runs on 3V, and I want to use the lighter plug to power it. So I had to convert it with a few diodes to step down the 5V from a USB lighter plug to 3V approx…

I am also thinking about extending the rear wing, but I can’t figure out if it’s glued on or bolted on. Haven’t really investigated tbh.

While stripping the interior I found mudspray on the inside of the boot. After ripping out the plastics next to the rear seat I found 2 holes, I van see the wheels from inside the car, and that actually stopped me from doing anything. I don’t have a garage so I’m waiting for a bit better weather to solve this setback.

I’m going to place a flip screen radio today I hope.

So as you can see, kind of all over the place right now…

Picked up some brandnew wheels last week.


12"x7 in the amazing PCD 4x110. Once they popped.up, I didn’t hesitate and drove for 4 hours in the Netherlands. And yes. That is ridiculous. At least for us Dutchies.

What tyres are you fitting on the 12x7 wheels?

These names make you punch the air thinking “Why didn’t I come up with that?” Hahaha. Loving your mods so far, the two tone looks sweet!

Are these ITP Quad wheels? They look fantastic.
