[TheBlaiant]

[mudvayne9790]

MOAR PICS. looks great!

[TheBlaiant]

I only had my rears on though

I took them off today to find this:




I think I should stop being lazy and put my RUCA's in.

And look at what I found......





$500 with a BHG on a KA24DE

[badbob2121]

wheels look sick!

[SFL Jon]

your car is coming along great! and wow nice find! i wish i could find a 240 for 500 with only a BHG...='(

[jsturges18]

the wheels look small in those pics :/ but im sure they're fine. and any plans for the coupe? dont stop working on the hatch!! i think my favorite part about your build is that you still have the single cam

[TheBlaiant]

I'm gonna get the coupe running and daily that. hatch will be low and slooooooooooooooow for pickin' up hoes at tha show broo

[TheBlaiant]

Update time bishez.

Front



Rear



Car(still gotta flare the front and set the final height)

[mudvayne9790]

to much stretch in the front for me. it will probably look way better when you flare it though
back looks good though

[breadbox]

very, nice.

[TheBlaiant]

STICKERS!






I need more.

[OM3GA]

Dang, you should seriously just run like -1.5 degrees in the front. It really does not wear that quick at all. Everything looks good though.

Is that picture of your cluster a high ISO shot or are they actually that bright? I have been looking for some bright stuff forever and bought a set of every color they have at SuperBrightLeds.com but have not tried the whites yet, the rest were extremely dim and depressing even though i bought the ones with the widest angle. :/

Looking good though

[xkrisx]

Loving your progress, whats your plans for the coupe you picked up? not a bad deal, looks clean

What offset are your wheels? love the 527s!
The rears look great, you gonna roll the fenders?

[cjmirabal1]

What size tire are u runnin on da rears? Looks good!

[SFL Jon]

that stretch is sick and where did you get that "assume the position" sticker? lol

[TheBlaiant]

Thats how bright they are lol I've been taking all these pics with my iPhone so far. You can also use the dimmer if you don't want them like that but it's really not that bad lol

I got my stickers at Ihatestickers.com

Here's the Breakdown on my wheels:

I'm running 17x9.75 +25 all around with 205/40/17 up front and 225/45/17 in the rear.
I'm going to switch the rears to 215/45/17 for a little more stretch.
As you see it in the photos I have a 25mm spacer up front just to clear the coils so they are at +0
I bought 25mm spacers for the rear to make the wheels sit even so I'm gonna be flaring out all the fenders.
So the final setup is gonna be:
Front: 17x9.75 +0 205/40/17
Rear: 17x9.75 +0 215/45/17
That should be done by this week or next week along with my Q45 brake swap, AP stainless lines, and possibly the pignose if I can find a spray can that kinda matches my paint.
After that I gonna slow down on buying parts and get the coupe running and daily it.

[TheBlaiant]

As of 3 a.m.

Ready for Springfest:

[terry_240sx]

Dang, you should seriously just run like -1.5 degrees in the front.

what omega said. do your tires or wheel ever rub the fender?

EDIT

[TheBlaiant]

It's good now lol

[TheBlaiant]

[jsturges18]

[TheBlaiant]

DAMN. That s*** is h0m0.

[TheBlaiant]

Sway bar is the culprit.

[TheBlaiant]

Don't mind the wheel gap.


And I got these for the coupe!
Just need to buy one from Megan.

[jsturges18]

why change coilovers??? unless there for the other car. anything new going on with them? nvm just saw it is for the coupe

[breadbox]

lol, I think I have one front megan coilover. Might need a top hat. but the rest is fine. looks just like that.

[sandcrabsailor]

The closeup of your silver sparkle paint is very nice. Dig the sparkle.
Glad to see progress, although I'm still waiting for the flight deck you promised....

[khon240sx]
