Whole lotta sick fitments going on around here.

ant_s13 · 04-27-2008, 08:19 PM

got some 235/40 federals on my 18x10.5 -24s. Federals are as ugly as everyone says for stretch, but theyll do for the price. this is as low as my Tein HRs will go, bottom collars removed and spring perch wound right to the bottom. camber and toe probably still need some tweaking but id had enough for 1 weekend! I hope this gives Australia a glimmer of hope :P haha

idahotuner · 04-27-2008, 09:06 PM

^ very hot. i want more pics of the whole car.

ZenkiCam · 04-27-2008, 09:08 PM

hmmm removing the bottom collars? i couldnt see that being safe. correct me if i am wrong please. but hey.. it gets your car a biitttt lower haha.

samplesurf · 04-27-2008, 09:13 PM

ZenkiCam - i hadnt even thought about it till i heard it on here haha as i understand it, the bottom collar is a locking collar for stopping the top one moving. now seeing as mine is right down the very bottom and tightened against the actual end of the threads, it cant go anywhere anyway. so i see no issue. plus my coilies are so old and thrashed theyre pretty damn hard to shift anyway, not like theyre fresh and spin on the threads with ease

idahotuner - give it a couple of weeks when i get some front tyres and get the fronts on then ill give it a quick wash and put it in the sun for some snaps

What size spacer would you guys suggest for
Front 18x8 +14 Rear 18x9 +18
I want it to be flush with 20MM fronts and pulled rear.

Marcus · 04-28-2008, 12:36 AM

i would recommend putting your rears up front with a 20mil spacer and getting new/wider rears. just a thought, you're gonna need a huge spacer to make 18x8s flush.

TheRonTom31 · 04-28-2008, 07:42 AM

A better picture of the black s13 with the gram lights would be awesome.

What I want to know is how did you not get your car stuck on the beach?

fender roller, although it tends to leave dents above where you roll if you go too agressive with it

dents only happen if you dont do relief cuts in your fender lip BEFORE you roll the fender

take a good pair of wire cutters...cut 5-6 slits in your fender lip before you roll ur fenders in the rear...it releases tension on the metal so it can fold under properly...and you get sans pressure dents

idahotuner · 04-29-2008, 05:59 PM

^ awe. i think we are going to do the baseball bat way. we are saving the rear fenders to be rolled so we can bondo anything out that we need to to make it clean.

the cliping is a good idea. sucks thought cause one lip is al ready rolled.
