215 is no stretch on an 8 bro. 8 +20 won't be fully flush either I don't think.Quote:

Considering 225/45. Daily wheels to drive on man. CBf cop attention because I knowQuote:

$480 later; recond. my driveshaft, new MTF and wheel alignment.
Rough?
ouch hahaha at least its all good now
just picked up my s2k and threw on stockies... anyone got some cheap fun rims they dont want? =P
also.... its too damn low who's experienced with adjusting coils that are also damper adjustable? i have HSDs and its a bitch to adjust zz
Congrats man!Quote:

soften them all the way down for the street for maximum bump control (wil probably still be too hard anyway)
you wanna soften that s2k twitchyness...
yeah its a bit hard and twitched already today, but probably more to do with my inexperience than anything
and yeah my old tanabes didnt have damper LOL
I'm thinking about lowered springs for my fd1 with 16 inch stock rims, don't need massive drop with further mods, and problems. Saw some mighty car mods eps on their daihatsu and Subaru installs and they looked the goods. Any Canberra shops recommended to do the job? Cheers.
I can do it if you're bothered to come up to Sydney.
Heya mate, thanks for the offer, would take you up on it however I need to source the materials.
Buy some lowering springs and hit me up if you need.Quote:

vallies are like candy tho. does nothing. JUST takes the edge off
need 80mg Oxys.
anyways.....
cant stand the LED day lights or whatever they are called. imo of course.
vallies give me waaaaaaaaay too much lag, its good, but it takes too long for it to leave.Quote:

Okay guys, so my dilemma with the stupid spacers... Since the 15mm spacers from justjap didn't clear. I bought 20mm spacers. I just finished fitting them on my car but the stupid studs on the front are just so damn long D:
http://i46.tinypic.com/2gvn6t0.jpg
I chucked the 5mm slip on spacers at the back so the spacer will sit flush with the back of the rim..
http://i45.tinypic.com/5wh47q.jpg
So that changes my front specs to 17 x 8.25 + 10
It flares out my guards when I bag my car all the way down to 0psi.. but this is what it looks like. I dont know what to do now haha it makes my rear look weak.. any suggestions?

PS. drugs are bad

10mg diazepam. I've got no hold on benzo's/downers, it doesn't take much to floor me.Quote:

Only way to get as flush is to shave the rears.
But rear poke is pretty impossible statically, just because its much harder to reduce the rear sussy travel when you're using spring n damper as opposed to coil over.
You can get poke on the bags, just then u can't drive around low because your smash up your guards.
Should I leave it as is? I still haven't gone for a wheel allignment either haha maybe theres something they can do to camber in my fronts a little bit.Quote:
