Does anyone know what happens to the drag coeficient when you do that conversion?

nice, what wheel tire combo are you running? and what exhaust do u have?

I'm sure it's nothing material.

I mean, just from the look of it, you probably have a tad more drag, but seriously, who cares. It's a 240, not a Utah Salt Flats land speed record car, your gearing and your power-to-weight ratio are much more immediate concerns.

I mean, if it was so aerodynamically disadvantageous that it seriously affected handling that'd be one thing, but I can't imagine it does, and even if it did, there's plenty of stuff you can easily do to a car to correct it.

Oh, and looks NICE man. Is your car black or some kind of dark grey?

Thanks for the compliments guys. My car's dark green, but my front end is different colors as you see there.

I have 15x7 Eagle Alloys with 195/60/15 Bridgestone Potenzas. I have an HKS D1 exhaust, looks just like the RSR Exmag.

Here you can see the exhaust better.

Hey how do you like the lighting on those headlights compared to stock? I could barely see at night. I put some PIAA $$ bulbs in the low beams, and it still sucked. I have the squares on my conversion too.

Car is looking nice!

Actually... the lighting is damn good for my lights. I can see a mile away. LOL

What color light does it show? Mine shines some sort of white light.

looks good man, do you plan on painting the front that same color, or are you gonna paint the whole car a different color?

Post by **AkademikONE** » Fri Jan 21, 2005 5:30 pm

I plan on painting the entire car a different color (don't know what color yet) after I get my aero.

Thanks for the compliments.

Looks good. It will look really good once its painted. Car looks like its coing along nicely.

I like the square lights so much better. I dont know, but the littel nipple things that are the triple projectors are kinda ugly...
