Default It's been a while...

Well been doing some little mods over the past year to the car. Recently got new wheels and BC racing coilovers. Not done with the car yet, but here are a few quick shots my brother took while hanging out with some friends...

Some might ask about the coilovers on a AWD, but honestly the car rides smooth with no vibrations and wobbles like some have stated. I have less than a finger gap all around with fender mods. I set the dampening 17 clicks up front and 20 clicks in the rear and to me it's not harsh at all. The car handles so much better now than when I was on Tanabe springs. Still need to get the rears dialed in with more camber so I can fit my spacers. Wheels are 20x8.5 +20 and I have 20mm spacers up front. Looking to fit 25mm spacers in the rear soon.






One of my good friends, posing in the car

I put it to soft first then turned 17 clicks to hard.

Quick question for those who have the rear megan camber kit...How much can you adjust the camber as far as negative camber? I'm looking to get atleast -3.5 and up. Still waiting for circuit motorsports to get them since they said it was still on backorder.

The girl looks a natural beauty. The car has too much make-up and hooker shoes.

Thanks for all the props everyone...Waiting to get my camber kit so I can put on the rear spacers and play around with my front fender liner a little so I can go lower then I'll get a full photoshoot of the car from my bro. I guess these were just some pics he managed to take while hanging out with some friends.


Ikapimp216-I saw pics of your car on here, how much did or did u at all modify your fender liners? I rolled and pulled my fenders as much as I can and I'm still rubbing a little bit when turning. So far I just cut a little section of the front out since it seems thats where I was rubbing the most.

From this perspective it looks excellent. Great photography too.
