Default SC stance/ show build

Ok so I know I'm probably going to get some flaming for this but oh well. This kind of thing is a lot more mainstream now days so maybe it will go over a lot better than it used to.

I got this 92 sc300 factory 5spd car a few years ago and haven't really had a chance to build it until now. I have been doing a lot of interior and stereo work, which by now needs more work and needs to be finished. Anyone interested in that thread can check it out here.

For now it's time get the fitment dialed in before finishing the body. As of now the car is sitting on Stance GR+ coilovers with a shine auto kit. Wheels that are going to be used are Riverside Trafficstar STR. Fronts are 19x10.5 +10 rears are 19x11.5 +10. Still deciding on tire sizes but probably going with 225/35/19 front and 245/35/19 rear. I'm in the test fitting and fender rolling phase right now.

That's gonna fit perfect with a bit of stretching and camber. Looks sick already!

Started rolling and pulling fenders tonight. I'm not in a big rush so I'll probably do one a night after work. Got the drivers side rear pretty much there. Won't know for sure until I get tires mounted but it's a big difference from stock.




few pics of the rims



Also got my brand new 97 grill today

I was wondering how much pull ( in mm ) can you achieve by using Eastwood (or similar ) fender roller?

Nice choice of wheels and fitment. I actually broke an Eastwood fender pulling my quarters around an inch.

I don't think I'll ever understand the whole big negative camber thing.

But I do love Impact's stereo work.

Measuring from the tire on the rims I have now to the edge of the fender I have a difference of just over an inch but I know I can pull probably at least another half inch if I need to. Gonna get tires mounted on the rims and see where it sits from there.

If you have patience and take you time you can pull pretty hard. Remember to use lots of heat and you may possibly need to have a rubber mallet to help smooth out some areas

I think this is going to be pretty slick looking, and I agree the "camber' thing is a love/hate thing? I'm sure you're going to pull this off...I've seen how you guys get down in HI-you guys good some skillz bro!

Rolled the pass rear fender. It's pretty much there for now, Just need to make adjustments once I get the tires mounted.

This is going to be an interesting thread. How was the fitment with the Shine Kit?
