I have it set to the height because the diameter of those tires in that pic are like 24.4 and i have another set of wheels and they are 25.7 and it looks like there is more of a gap than there is because the front in that pic is probably at 3 degrees of camber....... I'll try and look for another pics with those same wheels.

Got a thin plate welded on my quarters, seam sealed it. Should be mounting my overs soon.

Planning on adding Navan skirts and Kouki valances.

Excuse the shitty instagram iphone pics, I'll post good pics when the car is done. (lol @ the one ganador)

[da_crew10]

I wonder, can you drift running those specs plus ride height? Maybe?

[tqstarburst]

Well as it is, the left headlight has broken tabs & some asshole tried i guess, stealing? my grill? hence the fucked up fitment.

I installed the vent and just slapped the front end to see how it looked (whole car needs paint obviously) I'll be working on it today adjusting everything back in place.

240 cali-Yes, the hood needs to be cut out so it can sit even. It's a 9k vent that i bought a while back. I've been meaning to go aggresive with jdm oem but idk how i'm feeling about it. I might end up getting a oem hood again. Next up are g-dors and jdm grill.

[240Cali]

FUCKKKK! Id be so pissed off if i spend $120-$140 on a fucking grill for sum punk asshole to try to steal it.. one of my headlight bracket supporters broke as well, got a big ass washer and it fixed it lol tho idk how broken yours is.. shit if you need an oem hood PM me I got one for sale

If you really fucking insist, you'd probably need to run more 30mm spacers to push the wheels enough, maybe fucking more. 5-10mm for sure will not fix it. The amount of money you'd spend on spacers, you can probably just use that money to get some cheap used tires up front to get you by.

Found out what the problem was it was a bent strut called Jeff at 240sxmotoring and he said to measure them, and the passenger one is about.5" longer then the driver side. Doesn’t sound like much but that is why it was sitting on the tires. Driver side was fine, so getting a new strut tmw and a small slip on spacer just cause I don’t like how close the inside tire is to the inside of the strut.

ps it wasnt hitting the top of the strut but the bottom of the strut/bottom of the spring

Thanks for the info guy

No...not on anything other then maybe a parking lot. The clearance on the front fender rails alone wont happen, much less the 1" allotted for the rear travel

Car looks fucking sick dude! I love aftermarket mirrors on OEM aero, I'll be adding some to my daily when I have the money to spend on it. Money is all going toward steering rack/tie rods/axels/paint.

Glad the vent showed up in one piece! It looks like it fits better on your bumper then it did on mine, lol. It was held on with bolts and looked like it was going to fall out.

^ yea lowered congress. Idk why you would even try driving through that.

[xoxide]

Looks like a bullshit staged pic anyways... Never seen a cars bumper fall off like that when you go in water. Dont know why you would even try though.

[TunanS14]

blksylv Sweet! Now that the Lang front is off the car.. sell it (or donate it) to me!

Awesome pic i think, but also ive seen a cars bumper fall off for going into water. If you are dumb enough to go flying through it and depending on how low your car is, it can literally rip the bumper right off..

wow photoshoot FAIL lol
