[drksol22]

Oh WOW! i always wanted to see how my car would look with those wheels and lowered. can you please post ALOT of pics so i can it better? what do you have the coilovers set on?

[jamesblonde82]

Thanks, it is actually lower than I was planning on going but it rides nice at this height so I'm going to leave it.

the stance is perfect.

WELL MR NOOB, 17x9 all around looks stupid to me, i would get the fatest rims on the back of the rear wheel drive car, unless it is an AWD then u can do the 17x9 all around crap

I understand that you want the fattest wheels on the back in a rwd car but who says they can't be the same width.

Stock wheel size is 15x6 all around not 15x6 front and 15x7 rear. Being AWD has nothing to do with putting the same width wheel on all 4 corners.

If you prefer a staggered set-up then say so but don't make an assisnine comment about a car having to be all wheel drive to put wide tires up front and on the rear.

I'm going to wash it tomorrow and snap some more pics. Right now I have the dampner set on 5 all the way around, but that is too soft so I'm going to turn it up to 10. I can tell you that these coilovers are amazing for daily driving. My tires have only rubbed once as low as the car is, and I haven't rolled the fenders or anything.

If it was front wheel drive would you put the fatter wheels on the front?

And after a snowbird decided to pull out in front of me.

Great pictures! I'm scrolling through... "man, that black sure is sharp... man, I really need to get some coilovers badly... maybe I should put the KA-T proejct on hold... I miss the beach..."

Then out of nowhere:

And after a snowbird decided to pull out in front of me.

AWW!!! WTF happened? what did you hit? Anything damaged that we can't see? From the looks of it, a new light housing, a fender, a hood, and some touch up would take care of that.

^^Same here. Nice car, nice car, nice car... and BAM!! You know things happen for a reason. Now it's time for Silvia front end conversion. It's easier to put silvia front end than fixing complicated pop up headlights. Besides, black is easy to match color, so go for silvia front and hunt!!

I hit a suburban right in the reese hitch With the coilovers I only hit the hitch, it didn't even touch their bumper. The core support got bent a little bit. I'm just replacing it with stock panels. I want to go kouki or s15, but can't do it.

[DeXteR]

Are you going to get any help from the insurance company?

[David B]

No, it will be cheaper for me in the long run to fix it myself. I have a friend that is getting me a deal on painting the panels(quality work) and the panels aren't going to be that much. I have a $500 deductible, not to mention how much my rates would go up over time.
