Finally going to be able to drive this every day.Got it inspected by state patrol. Getting a title in a bit.Then insurance.

(sorry for s*** pics -- everyday in seattle is overcast)



I'm happy. I think it finally looks decent.I might switch to a 195/55 up front for more clearance.Some kind of simple sides would be nice too.

:smile

15x8 -30

way too hard to fit than an 8 inch wheel should be.rolled/pulled the rears. running -4.9* camber in the rear.

attempted to pull fronts (failed). running -3ish* camber in the front.

still 20mm from flush in the front though.looking for 20mm or 30mm fronts. anyone have suggestions? cheap front fenders?

im considering getting flares, but that would only be if i could get the 15x10 -45 versions of these wheels for the rear. simply to actually have a reason to have flares.

NICE, I love how it looks. It has come quite a way. I'm rarely on anymore but I remember your build thread and this thing turned out great. What do you have planned next?

more suspension for sure.best mods you can buy for your car. i want to get some bars and braces to stiffen up my chassis.

id like to do a later model KAde swap sometime down the road.i found a local selling a 97 kade with aftermarket clutch, header, intake maybe a couple other things for 800 which seems pretty good considering that includes the transmission.

look up meurta gia's car or just fender flares for install tips

they are originally designed for the s30, but the fit the s30 lines.. you do gotta cut the rears for sure, not as much in the front. i have a mounting kit someone fabbed up on hybridz too... i dont wanna jack ur thread... theres a link in my sig check it out and you can email me at [email protected]

imho you wouldnt NEED wider in the rear, you could run less camber and save ur tires
