yeah i have the same problem too...and the HIDs appear to be already on their limit...so my beam length has shortened slightly..:(

just have to add more weight in the boot (e.g. sound system?) lol

i have booked in for an alignment tomorrow as I may wear out those new 19" tyres if i don't do anything about it.

yeah, after suspension city installed my tein's, they said that my rear wheels will be on a negative camber, in my opinion, it looks pretty cool, kind of like i'm running on a camber kit on a certain degree haha, but when driving on the freeway i noticed the alignment was pretty off! so pretty dangerous! they said to me drive 100-200km's so the springs settle in and then book in for alignment.

oh and HAPPY 100 Page Anniversary CU2 Modders.

when u guys see other cu2, how do u feel?
i always seem to find myself smiling and asking, "does my car look that goooood?!"

now that my car's lowered, i look at stocky CU2's and measure their side mirrors with mine to see how low my car actually is, and their reaction when they see the space between my tyres and the fenders compared to theirs is hilarious, not boasting or anything, but the feeling is great when i see another CU2.

You"ll most likely need a rear camber kit.If CU2 is like CL9 there is no adjustment for rear camber.

I'm also considering getting the Mugen Replica Grill off Paul now, what do you guys think?? I'll probably won't be getting rims for my CU2...too far of a stretch, especially when I want to upgrade in a few years time :P

Cheers!

Oh nice! Rims aren't bad lookin' :P...I was thinking of going for some Wedsports coz my mate had it on his FD2 (before he wrote it off lol). They were really nice looking BBS replicas! I wish my parents showered with me such nice presents :P

As for the grill - I can't find the grill on JDM concept (unless I'm blind lol). Tried eBay too, couldn't find it! I was just planning to get a replica mugen grill + the mugen badge/emblem :3

hey, good choice on these rims!! i was looking at the same rims a while back, reminds me a bit of the AMG feel. Have you checked for size? cos last time i called up the supplier for these.. he did not have any 19' in stock and never got back to me to let me order them.. hope you have better luck!! great x.mas pressie.

this was my other choice.. a bit on the wild side, quite popular in JP

Oh cheers! Yeh I remember I've seen it on their site...$540 for just the grill is a bit of a stretch though haha (I'm trying to save as much as I can :P)...See what happens neway.

As for the BBS replicas, they were still 2.2k shipped from HK :S Not tooo bad but still pretty exxy for replicas if you ask me :P

not really into the multispokes style though, I LOVE MY 5 spoke whereas the girlfriend loves "split spokes", so i thought i get abit of both 5 spokes that are split haha!
havent checked for sizes yet, heading to the tyrefactory tomorrow for a quick quote on 19's, see how i go. :D
