Hey blkjmx, What drop do you have on the car? Didnt see much but looks sweet from the side shot. Do you have a side shot of the car? Exhaust looks sweet as hell. How is the sound?</font>
I have the eibach sportlines on the car. It gives the car about a 1.75" drop. I have this dirty side shot i just took of my car. I'll take some better pics after i wash the car. The exhaust is slightly louder but definitely deeper. Thanks

Hey blkjmx,

I gotta ask:

How come in the one pic close-up of your exhaust, you clearly have stock rims on it, then in the other pic of your car from the side, you suddenly have the ssr wheels on it?

I thought you JUST installed the exhaust? Maybe I missed something...?

Btw, how much was the exhaust system?

He just put those wheels on an hour ago.

Think he had them powder coated today.

blxmjx,

You have a PHAT ride Few questions for you:

1. How much was each SSR wheel?

2. With the SportLine springs, do you have problems "bottoming" out? [over speedbumps]

3. Does the exhaust sound "ricey?" [How much louder and deeper is it from the Comptech mufflers?]

Thanks,

Patrick

Okay here is the chronological order I bought the car in mid november. I put the wheels on the car and lowered it the first week i had the car. I took the rims off during winter so i could take the car to the snow w/out any worries. I put the exhaust on the car probably about 2 months ago. Those exhaust pics are from then. I put my freshly powdercoated rims back on today. I was going to sell them, but i've decided to keep them now.

Sorry buddha, i deleted your email and I couldn't find your email address on the site.

JRock I believe that they retail in the 6-7 hundred dollar range.

SOOPA,

my friend said that he can get me the Lowenhart BR5 for 4500 and that's including with the tires. Only catch is, I got to sell my 20s first before i can buy the rims. Im getting desperate.

Yes, everyone cant wait for me to get those. Even myself.

So does anyone have pics of BR5s or Mystics on a CL yet? Hopefully 19s with a Comptech drop.

How do you guys feel about chrome wheels on a silver car.

Amir

Zenettis wont be much better than the fakes one. They are not strong and tend to brake easily as far as I hear. I thought about that too, I wanted VegaS but was recommended against it.
