LOL DUDE
this dealer has been posting way overpriced xj cherokees for a while. i'm wholly and sincerely amused that they have jumped into the s chassis market. i can't wait to watch this sit on their lot while the price slowly ticks down month by month. ![]()

I think the previous owner wanted to widen the body & must have thought body filler would be better then over fenders... Idiot

When I do the other side perhaps I should save it all vs throwing it in the trash right away & actually weigh it.

Literally the majority of these "JDM" name brand coilovers are all made by the same company in TW. It's the placebo effect of quality at it's finest. It's like people who buy an supreme stuff for and claim it's because it's made well. P.S Not hating, I just see a lot of misinformation about suspension. I'm not saying we are the best, by any means. But if you even just spent a few hours researching what suspension does, and looked at just the design of our stuff vs competitors. You would likely have a different opinion. I could explain these things. But I'm not here to bash anybody else. Quote:
I wasn't going to respond because I get enough hate in my comments section to be numb to it by now, So i'm really not bothered, but I am curious who I think I am other than a guy who drifts, that lives in Orlando, and works at BC? Quote:
There are some other people who have a very different mindset. Including using footage of my driving as them to look like they know what they're doing.. I won't name names. (nobody local) Loufig, "Taylor isn't bad just thinks he is something when he is just a kid from Orlando who drifts and works at BC" I wasn't going to respond to you, but I am genuinely curious who I think I am other than a guy who drifts, is from Orlando, and works for BC? Seen a couple local cars with these all truck setups, and they literally sound exactly like a truck. Not sure if they're just running wrong, or the intake/exhaust manifold have something to do with it?

Eh, I have some old BC Br coilovers on my s13 and I know exactly what they are: cheap entry level coilovers. With that said, I've really enjoyed them. My only complaint is they don't go as low as I'd like in the front with 15's. I've planned to get them rebuilt/revalved with shorter swift springs to improve them and fix that one issue.
I laugh when people knock on BC. From my experience they are good(4 years on my set I bought used) and their customer service is great. Also, there's a reason they've seemingly become the leader in coilovers in the drift community. That doesn't happen when a company is bad. It seems like 9/10 people go with PBM or BC.

We offer extreme low, or fully custom stuff that could lay frame, or have enough stroke to jump the car if you wanted. At no charge. I guess we just don't market that well enough... Our Digressive DR's are super solid. Up there with the best of them until you get into 3-way (which we also make) or regressive stuff (penske only, about 9-12K for a set with no mounts) Also, I've seen so many setups where the cheap aftermarket arms were binding at 1/2 compression of the suspension, or weird stuff like that causing the car to handle terrible. A good damper won't help if everything else is wrong. Shit you could run a CX Racing coilover and do better than a car with Penske's if they had some of the issues I've seen before. There's a lot more I could explain, but I'm not going to get into it. Anyway, moral of the story is theres a lot more to all of this than people realize. God, i've derailed this thread. Back OT ![]()

I always thought "millennials" bought homes just so they could have a place to house their project cars. Or am I just speaking for myself?

if you know what you are doing good thing, if you don't possible you might crash your car and blame it on a stuck open throttle cable or some shit like that. |

DIW Short Story Time
Bought my first car about a year ago. It was a 1989 240sx w/ a blown KA (paid more than I'd like to admit). I threw in a SR and put every penny I earned over the course of six months into the thing. It was my first build and I loved the thing. Out of nowhere, some dude came up with an offer I could not refuse, and so I sold it for $5500. He immediately posted it up on Craigslist and tried to flip it for $7500. I don't have the picture for that for sale ad, but I do have the one he posted a week later for $5200 lol ![]() Another week passes and he buys a shit ton of parts from me that I was just about to put on before I sold it to him. He eventually sells it for $4500 looking like this. https://streamable.com/sost1 Here it is a week after the new owner receives it. https://streamable.com/9bmys I guess this car attracted people with more money than brains with me being the first victim lol RIP to my first build ![]() ![]() |
