If it happens again get a fuel cell.

Or do what I did, coat your tank in diamonds.

OBEEWON · 09-08-2010, 01:57 PM

It's a bit nutty.

nathanong87 · 09-08-2010, 01:59 PM

nathanong87 · 09-08-2010, 02:25 PM

edit: no bracket....SIGH

Brian · 09-08-2010, 02:28 PM

Ouch. These days, I wouldn't trust it until I see it with my own eyes.

Hopefully you can get back on your "feet" sooner than later.

lflkajfj12123 · 09-08-2010, 03:02 PM

what brackets are you referring to? also you cutting off your brackets isn't really their fault

just a miscommunication... stance is good peoples

TeamFRAT · 09-08-2010, 03:07 PM

Wow that blows man!! Now you guys got me all worried about my fuel tank

FusionR240sx · 09-08-2010, 03:29 PM

This.

Silly nathan.

nathanong87 · 09-08-2010, 04:03 PM

lol guys i didn't even order one, but i'd like to believe that if a sales rep says it's "plenty in stock" , it's in stock. But apparently the communication between the warehouse guy (who actually knows if it was in stock) and the sales dude was lacking.

regardless. i'm over it. i'll get one in two weeks. I have body kit fitting to do, hood installing, brake installing, wheel spacering, and fender rolling to do. apart from the putting the whole rear end of the car. I just hate people telling me one thing and it doesn't happen. The dudes at stance are good people. iwasmad.

Soap, i cut off the lower bracket that bolts to the front knuckle. that was frozen to the shock. i MIGHT* just use the bracket again and lock it in order to figure out this ride height, as it's much easier having a car on the ground

/rant

naw it's like 65$ shipped from stance (the bracket that my dad is lighting up to no avail)

luckily we did not damage the shock threads etc. the shock is like 160$ to replace

so on the fronts i'll be moving one of the lock rings to the underside of the bracket thus gaining probably 3/4-1" of "height" difference while retaining spring preload!

JDMSTYLE · 09-09-2010, 03:14 AM

papa · 09-09-2010, 08:18 AM

dunno about headlights, but i bend some of that metal that u buy from hoome depot with the holes in it and bolted one under each headlight. it's pretty "sturdy" for me. i have the oem bumper support and might try and fab something up in the next coming weeks to clear my fmic

OBEEWON · 09-09-2010, 10:08 AM

I need to build a bash bar and a splitter. My navan is too close to the ground. Saggy bumper is making me sad too.

PS. Nate Im picking up a Vertex knock from Chaser on the 26th.

Did you tell PaPa about the BBQ?

P.S.S. Papa we good for tomorrow? It would be sick if I can get all four tires for this weekend. Im about to be BROKE!

sonomadrifter · 09-09-2010, 01:08 PM

Papa: After cutting my radiator support out I made some tabs off my bash bar with holes, then tapped the bottom of my headlights (just the housing) with those automotive thinggys and now they bolt right together. Super solid with those and of course still hooked to my fenders.

240sxdriftin: I wanted the hood so bad for my purple car! But too much to my door as well

99maxgtr · 09-09-2010, 02:13 PM

nathanong87 · 09-09-2010, 02:19 PM
