Damn, I don't see how you could drive RHD in the U.S. I personally could never get used to it lol

A friend of mine knew some guy who had a rhd 350z from japan. He let me drive it once on the road, I couldn't properly make a u-turn to save my life. And the weird feeling of knowing you can reach all around to anything left of your body was just weird.

its more wierd to drive the Silvia becasue its a 5-speed...Ive gotten used to it over time...the only s***ty thing is passing people, you cant see around the cars in front of you...it sounds stupid but is insanely difficult

Yeah, i got used to the shifting quick, but the rules of the road where hard as sin to abide by.

I know nothing about Y32's but I think you should get this.

Anyways, I talked to Mike (blkonblk98) and he says I need to get some alignment done before I do anything else. When I got the car, it was stock. I have gone through Tokico w/ Eibach, air bags, and now JIC, with not one alignment. I know, it's stupid. So, I'm going to get an alignment before I do anything else. Once I am sure that's good, I want to go about 1-1.5 inches lower.

Post by **BLACKonBLACK98** » Wed Oct 21, 2009 5:08 am

just for clarification: the alignment was in reference to you eating up tires and wanting to go to a lower profile. you don't want to go through another new set as fast as you have been. with your widths/offsets you should be able to properly max out the jic's no rub. i would set it as low as you can go and then have it aligned. if you can't it will be the o.d. or inner cleanrance causing the problems so a 40 series and some spacers should fix that.

just for reference, i run the jic sl version (super low, shorter damper) maxed out in the rear (fronts matched) with 8/9 widths that have been spaced out as low as low as -6/13 effective and 215/235/45-17 tires. no(ish) rub.

max out your coils then get an alignment....you dont want to align then change stuff becasue youll just have to put in back on the rack y0

HDR or light painting the car would do wonders for those images.

HDR= High Dynamic Range (look it up on google)

I haven't quite mastered it myself but learning.

Post by **Koshin** » Tue Nov 17, 2009 9:30 am

Ive been looking into HDR stuff lately, youre the second person that told me the same thing....

I took them like that on purpose though, I dont like the flash on most photos...I wanted them to look dark with only the streetlights for ambiance

Not sure about where Yoshi lives, but some states it is illegal to tint the front windows.
