wow! you're a freakin GOD!
lol!
i was about to get some vs-xx too but in 4 lug but had not enough lip for me!
man good luck on that!
how much of an offset is possible on our car! i want 18x8.5 with like 36 offset or something .. . =/
how can i achieve!

 

lol, dude, that's only the front's. the fronts are 18x8.5 +31 and it has about 2.5" dish. the rears are 18x9.5 +39 and it has a little over 3" dish.

if you wanna go with a lower offset or wider (to achieve dish) you'll most likely have to pull your fenders. depending on what you want anything can be done. the thing is how far do you want to go. +40 and 7 or even 8 wide is practically safe for unmodified fenders. even on an 8 wide, you'd still rub if you're tuckin tire. unless you plan on working your fenders, i don't recommend going with a lower offset or wider wheel. if you're looking for dish, you gotta do what you gotta do. my next set of wheels are going to be even more aggressive fitment on a fwd.

imho, you could do a 18x8.5 +30. i had 17x7.5 +30 and when i had my car slammed i had about 1.5" between the sidewall of my tire and the inside of the fender. if you want to run a 8.5 +30, get your fenders rolled and run stretched tires. i believe you may still rub, but it wouldn't be as bad as an unrolled fender.

 

deep dish god damn!!!

you are my new role model!!!!!!nice teaser pic,not even complete and it looks sick

 

 

btw what car is that? turbo????!!!!!when did all this happen???? what did i miss i thought you had a dumped white one with c/f????

is there gonna be an h in that large empty spot in the bay??

 

The one that is photographed is my original car which I've had since 03'. In mid 04' I went H22 turbo and unfortunately I had to rebuild my motor because the crank walked into the block after I had severely bottomed out and my mounts took their last straws. It's being transformed -as we speak- into a high hp drag/street car capable of over 500 whp depending if all goes as planned. I gotta complete the rest of the 5 lug conversion and also replace the rotors and wheel studs. As soon as I take care of that, my car is going back to the shop to be assembled once again.

The slammed white 3.0 is my daily driver.

 

you wild mother fucker.

wow im jealous

 

Where's the pics from the Falken Show? That H22 is gonna be sick once you finally get it done.

 

You don't know about his blue turbo h22? Wake up

 

You don't know about his blue turbo h22? Wake up

 

Double post ..you noob

 

sickness...

 

Pushed the mouse twice by accident, I thought the post second rule would catch it, oops

 

wow that is gonna be f'in sick...im already impressed and its not even completed

 

When is this moster going to be done???????

 

wow, cyclone blue's hawaiian cousin still ripped to shreds... kinda sad when I look at it in its current state, but im hopeful because I know the results of your work will pay off tenfold..

 

wow crazy stuff!!!! im going to finally go with 18x8 on the front and on the rear a 18x8.5 or mabey even a 9. u think i can push a 9 with rolled fenders????

on rota D2.

 

omg... i need to move to hawaii..

 

Everything is looking good man, I hope your project keeps on making progress. What exactly are you doing to make that intercooler fit behind the bumper?

 

fucking awesome eric, you are my hero. and at subbuzz

 

lucky SOB.

what do you do for a living?

 

Platano: I got the pics from the Falken show. You can view them here Streetcar Showoff 06'. I was pretty ripped during the 2 days I was there. I'm surprised the pics didn't come out fucked. The white LS400 w/ the Junction Produce kit and Fabulous wheels is Dan's car aka Baka_t. The black LS400 w/ the Junction Produce kit is Dennis's car aka Dennis who sold his CL for the orange GS who sold that for his Q45. The 3g supercharged TL; the champagne 1g TL with the black SSR Sovereign's; the white 2g TL (slammed on airrunners) with the AME's; the silver 7g Accord dumped (airrunner) on Work Euroline SL's are all my friends. There were alotta sick cars I hadn't seen before. I'd say 40% of the models were bunk. It was a nice show. I'm glad I got to be a part of it (pourin crown inside of Dan's car while watching people quadruple take his sick ride).

Shaved: As soon as I finish the 5 lug swap, I'm going to have my car towed to the shop and have everything assembled. I hope to see my car running by the end of october--or hopefully before then. It's all down hill work. The most time consuming part was getting my motor out of the machine shop, and it was finished several weeks ago. So I'd say very soon.

Agranado: She's still in pieces, just doing some final touches before she goes to the shop. It was depressing to look at my car like that when it was first downed. But now I look at it as a project that'll get done in due time. Slowly things are working my way, and I like to think of it as a beginning to a fresh start. Most definitely all the time and work spent will pay off.

Slammed_on_18z: I shot you a PM back. 18x8 front and 18x8.5 rear is totally do'able. My friend is running an 18x8 front and 18x9 rear on his TL and it's a perfect daily fit (appearance wise). no barely any gap between the wheel/sidewall and the inside of the fender. I think you could easily do a 9 wide +40 or maybe even lower for the rears. Flatten the lip of the rear fender and you'll be set.

LegendaryCL: I need to ship my car to the mainland for you guys.

Blenz: For sure the project will continue to strive. And it will only get better. The intercooler in the photo is like a nice size. The only thing I had to do was to remove the bumper support to fit the intercooler. The intercooler I want to upgrade to is much larger in dimensions. 31" end tank to end tank; 24" core; 3.5" thick; 12" tall. I'll need to cut a somewhat large portion of my front bumper to get enough air to the intercooler. I don't mind that because I like bumper cut-out's with fat intercoolers shoved behind the bumper.

Sixfifty: Home security aka couch potato. Been working a while back. Saved up some shit spent it all on my car. Spent some money from my savings. Yadda yadda. I'm broke as shit now. Prolly start workin soon and get ready to pull out a loan.

 

He pimps out hula dancers

 

what type of body mods r u gonna have done when shes finished?

do u have lips? skirts? any type of widebody deal going on?

I know that you and kumar must talk about this stuff.....

 

Didnt know you were going to put the work rims on the h22 cl.. good to see you are doing progress on it still, now hurry up and get it all done so you can laugh @ cocoa

 

97BlackAck: Close. I own a whore house called Hula Whores. Nah, one day hopefully.

dragon084: I want to custom fab a kit onto my car. I wanted to do a lip kit, but I might as well try something different if I'm going all out. No widebody. Just widened fenders. I want to pull them out so I can fit more aggressive wheel fitment. maybe 8.5 +10 fronts and 10 -1 rears. Yup Kumar and I chat all the time about upcoming projects.

wataproof: Yeah man, I wanted to do the 5 lug conversion on the H22 CL because I knew I wouldn't have the 5 lug conversion done A.S.A.P. And I didn't want to sacrifice down time with my 3.0. I think the VS-XX's would've looked fuckin sick on the 3.0. I support Cocoa 100%. We are working our ways up to being the top CL's. The only people I laugh at, are the ones who talk and get shut down by me.

 

wow..

ur my hero..i can only imagine what its gonna be like completed..

im liking that streched tire look that your goin for..that's the style i've been lookin into but i still got some time before that comes out..im focusing everything now on the motor, it wont be anything near you but it'll be a start

 

stretched tires and a flush wheel fitment makes the car look much better. by all means i hope you or anyone can surpass my goals. that gives me the motivation to work on my car. i give everyone props for doing their own thing. that's what makes this shit fun or worthwhile imo.

 

perfect fit.

 

hotness! i almost forgot about the other cl u had. cant wait for the thing to get finished up.

 

yea i want those wheels and a 5 lug converstion before im all said and done with this car. good work man ii love both of your cls

 

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn


that shit looks sick

 

SEXAY.... bout damn time you put the hubs in... cant wait for the shit to be off jack stands and tearing up the streets...

 

 

koo, but im confused

in order to run those wheels, you will need to run very negative camber like you did with those daytonas. how do you plan on going drag if you're not getting max tire contact with the floor? not to mention driving a slammed car with no suspension travel wouldnt help much either.

negative camber is great for tracking and turning, but if you are going drag wouldnt you benefit from smaller wheels and more rubber on the ground?

nice wheels tho, just wanted some clarification on how you're planning on doing everything all together. unless of course, you don't really plan on racing

 

I can run those wheels easily. I can roll pro-kit height or I can roll slammed. Either way, they'll fit. Who said I'll be drag racing on these wheels? What do you know about my car being either drag/race spec or straight up for show? Tell me what my car is all about. You can't. You have no idea about my car and what I want to do with it. Good looking out though.

 

 

 

Well what do you want to do with it?
