hitman · 08-15-2006, 07:56 PM

thanks guys for the kind words. hope to get some more pics soon from the next event ,ima realign the car, shit only takes me like 15 hours why not!?! haha and lower the front more.
see some of youthere.

mr_240sx · 08-15-2006, 07:59 PM

Ian · 08-15-2006, 10:52 PM

I'm sorry hitman, but why would you lower your car any more?

How does it handle as is? You don't have any issues w/ the geometry?

I really have to ask, because while yes it is low as shit and looks cool and all...I could imagine you might have some serious ill effects from that...

hitman · 08-16-2006, 02:23 AM

becuase i dont want to raise the rear, and the fronts too high. so thats my only option. car handles fine. ive never measured or even cared to measure the bump steer, but the car definantly works.

id like to play with the geometry, but thats alot of money and stuff i dont really have expirience in yet. playing with ackerman would be super cool. at near full lock i have about 3 inches of toe out lol. alex p in the s200 said when changed the ackerman geometry in the s2000, he had it within like 1/8 toe out at full lock. thats rad.
but ya, car is fine, its the only thing im the best at haha

McRussellPants · 08-16-2006, 11:08 AM

no shit?

thats too bad, that was a good lookin car.

JVD · 08-16-2006, 01:52 PM

Yeah, he posted pics of it before. Super nice looking car. That sucks. Any pics of the damage?

Nostradamus · 08-16-2006, 02:28 PM

Please send me a pm if you know how to get an account on yahoo auctions japan..

thanks!

**mrmephistopheles** · 08-17-2006, 05:51 AM

Anyone can get an account there (i have one), but to be able to actually *bid* on an item, you'll need a japanese bank account as well as a japanese shipping address.

redsuns3838 · 08-17-2006, 06:28 AM

mrmephistopheles accounts are now 250 yen a month or something arent they?
i cancelled mine cuz i barely ever bought anything off them and didnt want to waste 250yen a month.

azncmb unless you have someone to send you, most ppl in japan are paranoid about sending ANYTHING overseas. and thats for little stuff, theres not many who will be willing to send a whole set of 4 wheels. better off just buying something stateside used from a shop that sells JDM wheels. sorry to burst ur bubble but i hate seeing ppl waste their time/money and get nowhere. but if u have someone in japan than by all means go for it.

justinhustle · 08-17-2006, 06:35 AM

swap em levis n billy joel tapes like we used to do with russia for vodka and mail order brides in the 80s?

***FaLKoN240*** · 08-17-2006, 12:15 PM

I thought Rinkya didn't like to do car stuff.

it doesnt matte,r they still do it...

now i have a question for all you japan folk and such.

I have had wheels shipped back to myself and my rommate a couple of times...but never with tires mounted... but my roomie recently got a set wit htires on them,.... and i know some people may think shipping will be more expensive... but if its less than the cost of what it would cost to get new tirees, then we're good...

anyways the question is, how can i avoid customs drilling holes in the sidewall to check for drugs? put the wheel&tire in boxes? or will they still open them, anyone have any experience,...because the tires are newer and worth payign an extra 20 per wheel to ship back...

sorry for going OT, i love you guys!!
