Keep it up bud. I have the hardest problem in the world right now. I have a concord grey s14 and want to get some rims for it.. nothing looks quite right on a faded purple car

Chicago · 09-15-2014, 09:59 PM

Hey man, I've been looking into getting those same wheels and wanted to know if you had to pull your rears? I read were you said you rolled them but no pull, i keep hearing that i'd need a pull and hearing that I wouldn't. Thanks man!

Chicago · 09-25-2014, 05:06 PM

I didn't pull them. They fit fine for me

This is beautiful. I'm really thinking about picking up a hatch after I'm finished with my coupe. Type X aero is just so nice

Edwin562 · 10-05-2014, 12:07 AM

So you converted the original turn signals into fogs? how is the output? I always wondered and was tempted to do to my kouki but never had the nerve to do it.

Chicago · 10-06-2014, 10:37 AM

Yup Edwin you got it! I like it looks great and im sure other drivers can see me. I havent ran into much fog yet haha I made the Marker lights marker/turn signals up top.

I have some work vs-xx in 17x9 17x10.5 ive been playing with the idea of selling them. Gold with chrome lips. Shoot me a pm we can talk. If your intrested of course.

Chicago · 10-20-2014, 11:28 AM

I wish

I'm so broke and I have a lot of bills coming my way

U mirin · 10-24-2014, 10:01 AM

And now i'm definitely in the market for a 240sx. I've had an 06 Dodge Magnum since I started driving and i've been through 2 suspension set-ups and 2 sets of wheels. I've been a fan of the "stance" scene for a good while now (roughly 5 years)? give or take and it's tough to do on a big wagon. And frankly, I'm tired of putting money into it. A 240 has always stood out to me and seeing you put in all this work is inspiring. Along with all the builds on here.

TL;DR Will be putting my wagon up for sale to fund a 240sx purchase.

That's fair. Having said that it isn't a 13's runner. It was my dads company car so it's a one family kind of deal, but you know how company cars are. Cheap, and sturdy; aka the 2.7L. So it's got to go. Been a fun journey in it though. Lots of road trips and memories.
