That S15 is amazing no doubt and the kit fits perfect...Id kill for the car in all honesty.

But the rear fitment isnt even good...Whys everyone busting nuts?

articdragon192 · 09-27-2010, 12:52 AM

Overall execution.

s-onefive · 09-27-2010, 01:29 AM

thanks guys! yes the kit isn't molded, and yes its a genuine vertex ridge.

with the rears, i tried my best to make it as flush as possible.

But thanks heaps!

I dailied 10's up front with no problems at all. No mods, except coils and sway bar (TNB, dunno if it's legit company, but it's twice the thickness). Tire is a big factor (i had/have 225/40), but so far it's fine. And handling is great, but little suspension travel.

i think the fitment is perfect for that car/setup.

enigmadsm · 09-27-2010, 06:40 AM

haha i love how people say they prefer the ugly tacky lines of poorly installed/made kits...and that fitment is sick...maybe an inch lower but slight the amount of poke is cherry...

dude idk if vertex's mold for the s13 got fucked up over time but my hatch kit doesn't fit right. Even though i bought it through Intense Power and everything, paid the money. One side sags and the skirts don't sit right... kinda didn't feel like keeping it after i got it and put it on, fucking sucks.

did i say that? no, so please do us a favor and stop talking out of your ass.

ripnbst · 09-27-2010, 12:08 PM

While that S15 is unbelievable this is not the unbelievable cars thread, its the fitment thread and in all honesty the fitment on the rear of that car needs work. I dont blame him though, genuine Vertex Ridge and all. I would want some clearance to protect my body panels as well.

Aussies are killing the fitment thread.

Lovely Idol Inc. · 09-27-2010, 12:18 PM

s15 an inch lower and you would all shut the fuck up about the rear fitment

who's us?

just you dawg. you blind.

those lines from kits aren't body lines. they're "hey look how much i don't fit/not flush with your oem body" lines.

frsh4 · 09-27-2010, 05:21 PM

Those Aussie Guys gotta post specs. Looking good definitely raising the bar.

fckillerbee · 09-27-2010, 05:46 PM

about time aussies show up in here...too many of them think they are low with 4x4 status.....

i love how they all hit at once!!!!

and yes...please post specs!

sorry, didn't mean to talk for every1 there... anyways, back to the argument

http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_i...0001_large.jpg

that, sir, is a stock bumper on a stock body s13. Oem bumper i presume, it has lines that are visible. The little dark area between the lines, it isn't "shitty fitment" because that's pretty fucking consistent and hugs the car if you ask me. I, PERSONALLY, think those look nicer than not having them be seen and kinda looking like a molded kit look. Molded kit = honda civic show car (fail)

krappy · 09-27-2010, 07:18 PM

Hellaflush aint got shit on me....

LOL... its an s14 SE wheel... hit one of those metal plates in the road they put down to when they do roadwork...it was on a dark wet road so i went over it doing about 40mph and it punctured my sidewall and here's the end result... time for better rear tires....

f. 18x8.5 -14
r. 18x10.5 -22

I don't understand. Either higher offset in the rear or smaller tire in the rear? Confused

fckillerbee what tire sizes/offset are you running?

frsh4 · 09-28-2010, 10:07 PM

Fckillerbee your front tires look too small IMO. Maybe its your aggressive aero. Lovin the car tho.
