Yeah, yeah I never said I wouldn't pull them........ well, maybe I did. I just didn't want a NASTY pull or wide body.

I assume you meant zero camber!?! I haven't touched the camber in the rear..... it's still -2.25 degrees.

The main thing I didn't want was stretched tires to achieve a decent amount of lip.

oops, yeahh, I meant camber, NOT offset, LOL (wtf)

You kids and your aero.

Im not a huge fan of the the new wheels, Ive always liked the first set, but the car is beautiful.

Body kits =

Post by **Kalypso** » Sun Jul 19, 2009 1:24 pm

you need aero / wide fenders for these wheels.. they dont look right without a fat lip.

sorry tobester, you know i love you - but you're doing it wrong

Post by **Broadfield** » Sun Jul 19, 2009 1:46 pm

Wow, you guys really are aero whores! I had to look up at the URL and make sure I wasn't posting on Zilvia! I really do love all of the comments though...... all the more reason for me to NOT get aero.

However, I have always considered the OEM aero bumper and skirts. Just never found any at a decent price and fair shipping.

You never know with me though!?! This time next year it may be all aero'd out with a wide body and a RB26 under the hood

Wanna buy mine?

New wheels are looking nice. GREAT fitment in the rear with the fender roll.

A lot of something.

Couldnt have said it any better.

Deffinetly have a lot of respect for you Toby, but not feeling theses wheels on your car. Like said above, its lacking something.

this man speaks the truth. if i saw your car with rotas going down the street all i would say is "hey theres a 240" your rims are the only thing that make your car exterior wise. it needs somthin to spicen it up. it needs some character. its quite...well blan. that being said car still looks fantastic. and i know the interiors not blan either.

haha i guess if it you like it that way. imo dont put a overload of aero and widebody kits on. that will ruin the clean look. maybe just some oem aero. idk like i said before. it needs character

I take back what I said Broadfield, don't get aero! Not having aero is probably the one thing that keeps your car from being "just another badass s13". I see a pimp a** car with no aero and only your name comes to mind, so keep doing what you do best.

Never been a fan of any of the wheels you've had; but everything else is impeccable.

The paint is solid. Interior is nicely reworked. Engine bay is clean. Most people wouldn't notice half of the unique pieces on the car.

It's perfectly fine as is.

Get fiberglass panels to line up like OEM is A LOT of work. Most of the ones I've seen online look great in pictures once you get close to them look like crap.

Most are 20 foot cars. Great from 20 feet away, up close lots of gaps and imperfections.

Car looks bad a** man.

Leave it alone or slap on an OEM Aero bumper.

Car looks great!

As always Toby, I love your car. Having watched you build it on here (for what...like 3 years now?) has always inspired. I also salute you for not jumping on the bandwagon and getting some goofy aero bits. Keep it clean and OEM: they will never see you coming.

Post by **Kalypso** » Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:38 pm

this thread is the epic clash between OEM aero and JDM ricer style....

everyones getting really emotional

Post by **thebab** » Mon Jul 20, 2009 3:05 pm

I'd have to say I LOVE the car as it is... the wheels look really nice...and the car is subtle but bad a**.

Post by **sr20drifter1** » Mon Jul 20, 2009 3:06 pm

Hey Toby,I've always loved your. Aero or no aero, it's a piece of art.Just in case you're thinking aero,I will go the Sillbeer way. OEM aero with OEM widebody pulled and rolled fenders. I feel like that's what you're going for. Your wheels are a good choice. With the OEM aero, all you will have to do is drop it a little more and that's it. Keep up with the good work.I might come by this week to see you. It's an hour and half ride for me, and I think it's worth it. Here are some pics of Sillbeer

nice car but that wheel gap hurts my eyes

Oh my god it's such a monster truck.

Why do people always complain about wheel gap? Some of us like our cars to stay intact since we DD it for years. That red car is gorgeous, and I think that stance fits perfect.

Post by **kyles1988** » Mon Jul 20, 2009 3:58 pm

So do you guys that keep suggesting an OEM Aero bumper realize that he said he's been looking for one for like 3 years? Just wondering...

I think if you google Silvia Aero Bumper or something, one of the first entries is his Zilvia Sig, WTB: S13 Aero Bumper. It always comes up when I try to help find one.
