haha soon bruh, i still am rolling stockies up front due to not being able to afford new tires for the 18's

et7 BARELY fit after gently messaging/pulling the fenders out another 1 to 2 mm. BUT even with full camber it was rubbing the letters off my tires, so i had to abort that quick. it was pretty ridiculous, and impractical. plus it just looked straight up odd (aggressive as hell though) what you see in that pic is 18x9 +27. I'm still debating going down to +12, which is definitely do-able since I've corrected the rear camber, but it just means more money for a new spacer and more time messing with the camber. Fear not though, I will eventually push the limits of this sucker when the funds come in....and I can say this with certainty, 18x10 +3x or 18x9 +mid teen offsets is the max these things can push in the rear. Fronts, your limit is around 18x8 +0 with stretched tires and camber

Yep you can get led bulbs, but you'll need load resistors or a new relay to prevent the fast blink

In this:


Building the box tomorrow. The amp should be here around the middle of next week (shipping tomorrow or saturday from Jersey) and I gotta find some test/tune/practice time for the comp on the 19-20th. Should be fun...

lol I drove a 2001 with 88k on it today. I really wasn't impressed at all by the h22 in it. I mean there were three people in the car so I guess that could have made it feel lame.

But it was hilarious the dealer came in the car and closed the passenger door after he put gas in it for me, and the window regulator shit the bed, the window fell down hahaha.

This one's borrowed from a buddy of mine. I'm going to try to finish sealing and get my tweets in tonight and get everything all nice and tuned up, now that I have a scope. Unfortunately, I screwed myself, and now I have to pull the whole rear deck to seal it... This is going to suck... It's going to be a long ass night...

That's kinda the plan Nate... Or at least for now anyway... I might go back and do some kind of finish on it later, but for now, it'll stay pretty much how it is... Although I did get it cleaned up a bit, and it's better reinforced, along with more tape on the deck...
