01>03 stockies IMO

I am jealous of your AM, my favorite color. Looks very clean!

Whats your suspension setup?

I definitely like the '01-'02 stockies better than the '03's. Looks good!

Thanks for compliments guys~

Whats your suspension setup?
I got eibach pro kit w/koni yellow on lowest purch.

I kinda like both 01 and 03 style. That's why i can't make decision.
I think 01,02 wheels look more aggressive and 03 look kinda classic? look?
I don't know.

Keep your current set-up with the 01's, it looks baller.

If you can get your hands on a set, the 04-06 3G TL wheels look sweet on a CL, but the car looks great right now as-is

Man your ride is clean...i guess im part of the few that like the 03 rims...but either ones look good. Like your drop setup, i have the pro kit with tockico blues and it doesnt get that low...well guess its time for coils. Pimp ride

I was gonna make new thread, but no point do. so I'm gonna post here~
I just finished installing my rl calipers.
I was gonna paint them black, but i decided to go w/red. when i upgraded w/legend dual piston calipers few years back, i didn't feel much of differences.
These rl calipers? There's huge difference. I'm really really really happy w/this set up. now i can stop!!! Thank you NVA-AV6!!
Here are pics. sorry for pics quality. They are from my phone.










Thanks for looking!

You need custom made bracket. NVA-AV6 makes them. I used 350z power slot rotors and rl pads.
Have you read e30cabrio's thread? Here's his thread w/all the informations.
I got all informations from his thread.

Stock CL wheels will not clear them. 3rd gen TL wheels will as long as they cleared the stock Brembos. Obviously any other wheel that clears a BBK will fit as well.

Anthracite - Looks good. Biter

The wheels in the first picture are off of an 01-02 Type S. They wont clear these brakes.

The wheels in the last picture are off a 3rd gen TL.
