****WILL UPDATE WITH PICS****

after waiting 4 weeks to get my 2 week order of the coilovers i didnt really want (ksport was my 2nd choice) shipped to the wrong address, and having to dive 80 miles round trip to pick them up (or else i would have had to wait until monday to get them), i FINALLY got them today. they will be on my mid-afternoon tomorrow.

****WILL UPDATE WITH PICS****

Hope they're not bouncy like they were in my s13. Thank goodness I never bought them, they just happen to come with the car when I bought it.

yea... i had a set on my s13 as well, and the dampening was not nearly strong enough for the spring rates. Actually blew a left front in 3 months, and since I used it for drifting, They wouldn't warranty the shock. Hopefully it's better on the V

looks damn good man. If it was me I'd run a small spacer front and rear to get that sidewall scrubbing fitment, but looks good regardless :p

looks great!!!
i saw your post on the "other" forum.

the problem you are going to run into with getting new wheels,if you get a lower offset they will be closer to the fender. your best bet would be to find wheels with the same spac but different spoke design, you can gain 10mm or more clearance at the caliper and keep the same specs.

It rides fine, a little more bouncy than with the Tanabe springs.

These were just ordered...

Looking good. Love how the paint goes with the hood and wheels.

Is that your factory "lip?"
