Yeah, instead of just one huge pipe. It splitted up into two smaller ones. It gives me better ground clearance, so I can't complain. I got it off a guy from a shop in WA.

There are a lot of nice things going on with this car.

With way wayyy lower offset wheels, paint and a bit of a drop, you'll be solid.

nice car man, shes got alota things goin for her! i have about 1/2 and inch from my tire to my fender front and back and i still think its too high, but unlike alota guys are saying i actually like the wheels. but id take them off for now and run the stockers til you can find the money for coils. thats what im doing, coils then wheels. the stockers fill the wheel well better imo. but the car is deffinatley lookin good man

Nice man another lanc 240 lol. We'll get u set with proper offset wheels/coilovers someday. I know how you feel though, my last car was on those springs and I felt like it was low enough. No. You can still get around town much lower especially if you don't have a lip. You just have to get used to scraping the length of the exhaust on speed bumps.. and get a oil pan bash plate because some of those ruts in the city pop mine to the anti roll bar when I'm not looking, and you live like right outside the city!

Beautiful engine. I wanna hear it run in person.

Bersh.

Welcome to the Lancaster Crew.

3 Main requirements.

a) LOW/good stance/wheelsb) CLEAN engine bays (mines the exception, til the sr goes in)c) not afraid of spraypaint/zipties/aero

you have my 100% approval on the bay. looks freakin spectacular.

needs LOW. bad. Parts Shop Max coils. in your life. ask ANY lancaster guy... and wheels to go with.

spraypaint. yes. kill the primer. real paint > spray > poop > primer.

if you wanna chill, hit us up, dont be shy. we arent.

And btw, are you sure it's on lowering springs? Lol it sits so 4x4 status. Looks like stock ride height imo.

I'm on tokico and tanabe's and my front lip is about 1.5 inches from the ground.

no I dont think it's the angle. Compared to mine, yours is about an inch and half higher. What springs are you running?

The wheels are XXR 002. They dont come in green or white. You have to paint them.
