Dude, your car is sweet. I love the gold wheels, and the stance. I'm painting my wheels back factory, close up they look like garbage, but from far away, no one knows it

hey, I'm flattered! Different angles are what I like to see. Not the same ole same old.

looking good bro. Zenkis unite. Geo wants to add you to the lip krew. Not a bad group to be in though.

I too need to clean my headlights. they looking yellower every week. Maybe because it's summer...............

How does the tien s tech srings compare to Eibach Prokit springs?

The prokit has the perfect drop I want, but it's a bit hard ont eh mean streets of DC.

Hey Nickwent03, how does the tien s tech srings ride?I like your car. the bronze wheels contrast nicely with the white.

Thanks Maximus, i knew with the water in the background it would turn out great. But i too like different angles. The lip krew would be cool to be in, i just need a lip first I am wondering about the tien ride b/c thats the exact drop i am looking for. I e-mailed cyrus240sx about his setup, koni shocks on tien springs. I am also considering that setup. I will soon decide though, i think i will probably stick to the kyb shocks, unless i hear other words from cyrus. But thanks for the comments and keep them coming!

the pics look great!nothing wrong with being a lil artistic...

again... just clean the headlightsi found that wet sanding them over with 800 grit sandpaper, 1200 grit rubbing compound, followed by mothers aluminum polish to keep em clean thru the summer works best

ook good man...But work on staying in the lines when you photo shop out your license plate.... Also the "watermarking" you did wont really help them from being stolen IMO it is very easy to trim something like that out...If your trying to protect your pics, you should photo-shop the work across the main part of the image, just dark enough to be seen, that way it doesn't block the pic, and the pic cant just be trimmed and re-used. Ive cut the copy right stuff out of he corner of so many pictures its ridiculous...

96 with low miles from the original owner! Nice purchase...

Thumbs up on the pics.

I bet the FL sun is murder on those headlights (assuming its from FL). If your OE shocks are blown, it cant hurt to add springs now, and buy the shocks later, right?

Ive heard good things about S Techs lately. I'm torn between them and ProKits as well. I'll probably go with GR2's to save a few bucks on the shocks...
