There is this part of me that sincerely wants a 326 Dlux kit, even if only to never actually drive with it on my car and install it for photographs to look at when I feel down.
LOL the black looks sweets. I actually like the wheels on the orange one but I want to get rid of some of the detail on the kit and the wheels. Smooth it out some.

Perhaps some day, when you and I are both affluent and our respective hair styles are greying, we will start a company that produces only the most awesome of Aero Parts, inspired by the Japanese, but improved with style. By such a time, we could produce these parts and actually make money since all of the broke 240 owners will have long left their cars in rusty graves and moved on.

A guy can dream.

Back to the matter at hand.

Fronts are 18x9.5 +5 (effective) with a 215/40/18 Nankang, I think NS-20, but I'm not entirely sure. At the current height, there's no low speed rubbing, and minimal rubbing at speed, other than at full suspension compression. Fenders have been rolled, but no pull, and inner fenders are very aware of what a hammer looks like. Camber is right around negative 4.5deg, toe/caster are reasonably close to stock.

Rears are 18x9.5 +20 with a 225/40/18 Falken Ziex 512, negative 2.5 degress camber, slight toe in, approx .5 deg per wheel for 1deg total. Rear fenders have been rolled but not pulled, and rub very noticeably at full compression.

Eventually (probably within the next week or two) I'm going to knock out the rear studs and install extended studs and 10-15mm spacers in the rear and swap to a 20-25mm up front. There's a good 10mm - 12mm of clearance on the front fenders and I'm confident that I can gain another 5mm-7mm of clearance in the rear by correctly (not rushing) rolling the fenders in the rear again and then pitching the lips when I'm done. Going to try to solve the rear compression rubbing by moving to the 215/40 all around.

Enough info?

Btw, took pictures of the retainer.. Interestingly enough, the support bar that I have up for grabs is better than the one on my car... Lololol. Will shoot the pictures your way in the AM when I'm at a real computer. Also need to find a box, I think I can get one from work tomorrow.

Yes. Let us be partners.
We can open a studio and call it Free Candy.
Produce only the thickest Urethane Aero for $5,000 dollar monies that have absolutely no aero dynamic benifit.
We must build a wind tunnel though and attach a readout of how ineffective each peice is so the owners know exactly how much thought and care goes into our product.

We will serve pecan pie in our waiting room. If a customer has a nut allergy they get to lick pay day bars as we laugh at their immunohemolytic anemic reaction.

Also if anyone offers their opinion good or bad we kick them in the foreskin.

Only the baddest biddies will serve us drank.

How can we not win?

long live indeed. I dont think any other comedian has made me laugh as consistently as he did. I think he is to our generation as Richard Pryor was to people of the 70s.

Has anyone put gramlight 57vs on a s14? I knwo they make those in 17s now too.

It's crazy to think that the Chappelle show is 10 years old... I still laugh rather loud and often at most of his skits (like it's the first time I've seen it or something)...
