i have same as you.. 17x8.5 +25. i added 20mm spacer so its effectively +5 offset. it's perfect. now i gotta worry about the rear. it needs +15mm more.

DRFT · 05-20-2004, 02:43 AM

where'd you get the c-west mini spoiler and for how much? i think you just influenced me to buy it. killer lookin car man.

M.Piedlourde · 05-20-2004, 07:56 AM

That exhaust looks huge in the pic taken from the back. Which one is it?

And just out of curiousity, why "Nicci"?

No Motiv · 05-20-2004, 09:18 AM

You are the man.....nice body work...looks like new

edit: i looks like Greddy DD...fuckn huge

bztech · 05-20-2004, 09:53 AM

Sexy.. the body work came out great. Actually kinda diggin the exhaust.. I think its the angle it sitting at. Wheels are nice too!

Nismo240SX · 05-20-2004, 10:54 AM

one name... John-Claude Van Day'um!!!

S14Speed997 · 05-20-2004, 11:12 AM

..now its time for kouki taillights.....

Pepperoni · 05-20-2004, 12:42 PM

You did finish sanding the rest of the car right? I hope you didn't just paint it in the condition it is in the first pic. Hopefully you just didnt paint it over your green paint cuz then if/when it chips, the green will happily appear. If not, then congrats, lookin good. And yea that exhaust looks HUGE

nokeone · 05-20-2004, 12:51 PM

...on here too..still looks good..

dvdevo · 05-20-2004, 01:56 PM

yeah i know he has those wheels.. i took lots of pics of them at a meet hehe.

DRFT · 05-20-2004, 02:00 PM

i guess my sarcasm meter was off

Matt_240 · 05-20-2004, 02:09 PM

first of all, cwest mini spoiler?

exhaust is n1dual. i guess it just looks big? i dont know. you should see my friend's exhaust. he did a custom tip 3+ inch piping. tips looks like greddy DD but they're twice as huge and long. i should take pictures next time.

i live in pearlcity, if you want, pm me before you get down here. itd be cool to meet up with someone from zilvia from another state.

yes, the car was sanded. and paint was like 500 i think. and no i didn't paint it myself.

thanks for the compliments. it still needs more suspension. my personal shortterm goals were to 1. drive better(so i stuck w/ ka) 2. improve suspension (so i dont feel so bad about sucking at driving) 3. make my car look nicer (so i look fast and intimidation factor) haha. i think ive accomplished #3 and some of #2 but #1 needs working on. DS may 30!

i just painted valve cover black and im gonna paint letters pink. should be bling. im organizing a small 240 meet this sunday so i'll post more pictures next week.

What spacers did you use may I ask. I think ima go through wheeladapters.com or whatever and have them fabricate me some 20mm. Did you do any pulling/ neg camber? I'm just going to roll the fender a bit in the front. Any close up pics of how flush in the front??

i got 15mm H&R and 5mm generic. i'll post pictures of it next week. i just rolled fenders a little in the front. some neg. camber but not much. still plenty of clearance. but i do have 215/40s.

Salty_X · 05-21-2004, 01:32 AM

The rears are 225/45 right? I like the look of it, I might have to go with that next time...
