thanks buddy, I really love it too. just wish the car was where I want it to be buy oh well, still looks decent now that the wheels r on again. gotta get an alighnment soon and set the rear to -2 camber like the front and start measuring for my spacers and also see if I'm happy with the fitment, if not I'm thinking of removing the bottom lock nut on the coils in order to get the front and rear just that little bit lower lol
Must be your 19's then Justin, looks a lot lower than the Teins actually go haha
lol could be but I wanna go alittle lower, at least in the rear by removing the bottom locking nut. oh an btw I am on tein street basis so maybe that's y I look low, but I'm not that low!!!
been slacking lately with the forum but I'll be putting something together for those of u who follow my progress. also have a few things coming up like having my roof rewrapped and some big engine updates in the works but that's gunna be very hush hush lol
DUDE! how have we never run into each other? I'm in CT also, and I've got a CBP Type-S.
good lookin car man!
thanks man but I've seen u around, at heavenly one night a couple months ago and I think u were in east haven at the meet but didn't bring ur car, Doug right?
ok guys I'm finally back after a very long departure. been dealing with a lot of personal things in my life and tho the car has taken a somewhat backseat I have still been modding her and have plenty of updating to do for those who have cared to follow my progress. I certainly miss the discussion and dare a say brotherhood here on Acurazine. once I get my photobucket back up and running I'll be posting some pics... yes still shitty phone pics but it's all I got. also have big plans as usual in the near future. so again I'm back and can't wait to hear from my buds!!!
Glad you're okay, and glad you're back, my friend.
Brotherhood is right.
after seeing the nonsense on those Facebook pages has made me miss the forum more than ever and after reading thru this thread and a few others has really made me alittle sad and guilty not to get too sentimental lol
Looks great! What are the wheel specs, are those the 710 series wheels? Do you have brembos in the front (can't remember if this was a type s or a type s conversion)

I hear the fb group is horrible
thanks bud!!! car is a base so no brembos for me. wheels r 19x8.5 and 19x9.5. trying to decide whether to paint or purchase new wheels but will be making a decision soon, and will be posting pics soon since the car has had some changes and mods since u guys have seen her last
just a couple teasers of my lower ride height as well as window visors and cdm tails that u all haven't seen yet. also note the new roof vinyl once I start posting more pics later, it's still CF just now it's a hexis gloss and looks much better IMO. intake manifold and valve covers were also painted since I had to replace the radiator so while I was at it I installed a B&M trans color and magnetic inline filter. so more to come!!

ah got it. what offsets are they? i talked to a vmr rep a few weeks ago but they didn't really have what i was looking for in terms of not being super aggressive while also clearing the brembos, those brembos are a pain when spec'ing new wheels.
what up Caz! Car still looks fantastic, I wondered if you'd gotten rid of it since we hadn't heard from you in so long.
Sidemarkers you did are still shining bright for me btw!
what's up brotha!!!??? nope haven't sold my baby yet lol but thanks for the kind words but she's still the POS she's always been just with alittle more jewelry and lipstick. great to hear that ur still happy with the sidemarkers and that they r still shining bright!
currently trying to build up the courage to swap my headlight lenses since mine have spider cracks and has been killing me. I purchased lenses and since JnC has retired I've been procrastinating and avoiding the task. doesn't sound too bad but also waned to change a few things up while they were open but that may or may not happen

I got the gloss CF but whats the diff between that and hexis gloss you have or is it the same and I'm just burnt LOL
as far as I know I was the first person to do it with a 3rd gen years ago when I did it. hexis is just one of the best vinyl manufacturers in the world and one of the few with a gloss CF even tho eBay is littered with them now but those r big stickers and not a true vinyl wrap. I've had two different types of CF over the years and hexis has been by far the best. urs looks great btw
yea I wasn't up for that cheap fleabay shit, I went to a legit vinyl/graphics shop I think they used 3M...
but man what I find really weird is I park my car in a garage or even when I park it outside say overnight ill come out and there will be a bunch of dead bugs on my roof?? u ever notice that? Its like theyre attracted to the material and then just get cooked on it when they touch it cuz its hot from the sun
any plans to CF wrap the antenna and roof spoiler? it would flow much better IMO.
what offsets are your wheels?
I actually don't like the roof spoiler and antenna when done. have had it both ways and dig my current setup better. offset is 35 and 45 I think but I could be wrong
