Default Tein before/after pic

Hey guys, I just thought that I'd show you a quick before/after pic of my SC with the new Teins on it. After some debate, we opted for the Supra SS coilovers over the Basics due to the fact of the adjustable dampening.

Here's the pic:




The car needs a bunch of dents taken out and repainted. That will come after I put a turbo kit on it this winter.

What do you guys think?

I'm going to lower it some more. It doesn't have the little bit of a raked look that I want yet.

Nope, they're Kazera KZ-A's. They're a pretty good wheel for the money. I'm going to invest in some forged wheels further down the line.

I like the height, anymore than 2" and it's getting into the "Furious" zone.

lower it some more. just be careful and see how much room you have between the tire and inner fender splash guard. dont wanna be rubbing through the chassis harness when riding low

looks good though.

How hard is it to roll fenders? I was thinking of getting mine rolled so I don't have to worry about rubbing.
