Sky gets lowering springs!

[Dietcoke]

Update: These are terrible after pics, but the lowering springs are on. Eibach pro-kit 1" front, 1.4" rear drop. 100 times better stance and 10% stiffer spring rates! No more moon buggy...

Here's a closeup before and after on the front. It's actually quite a difference, the rear is slightly more then the front.

[green91]

Looks nice, i contemplated buying one hardcore when i got my truck. Id still like to pick one up in the future

[Dietcoke]

Closeup on rear before and after.

[josh green]

You have to excuse most people, if its not tucking lug nuts they cant tell its lowered.

[JITB]

looks good whats next?

[joesblk_teg]

i liked the smoked tails why did you take them off?

[joesblk_teg]

ohhh and your car looks good, i havent seen anyothers on the street modded +2 for being different

[Bballjamal]

Looks good man! I wish I would've saved enough to grab one when I was contemplating a change!

[Repost Squintz]

yeah y'd u take the smoked tails off?
car looks alot better

[Civic_H2b]

car look great! :goodjob:

[RUFFIAN]

Thats tight. I dont ynderstand why these havent taken off better than they have. I would roll one in a heartbeat.

[Dietcoke]

Tails are for shows only. No light shines through, they've got about 5 coats of factory paint on them. I'm planning on tinting the set thats on the car now, so as to keep the black theme. :)

Next or looks is to smoke the front amber side markers, and 35% tint the side windows. I want to do ghost flames or something on the front. Haven't decided... hard to split the budget and make room for appearance mods. I'm a go kinda guy not show.

Gt3071r anyone? :yes:

[Jonflip29]

Nice drop man. I don't know much about the Sky but are those factory boosted or did you boost it? How are those Generals holding up for you? We sell General truck tires, but i've seen the car tires.

[00CelicaGT]

they come factory turbo

260hp @4600 rpms

they put out alot for a 2.0 (GM) from the factory



oh the drop will look better in bout 2 weeks when everything settles:goodjob:

[87 Turbo II]

I've driven an N/A Sky, great handling, a tad bit slower than my FC in a straight line (I'm sure the 90 extra hp from the Red Line/turbo models solves that)

[khailon]

nice

[Repost Squintz]

for some reason i always thought the sky's were fwd... but i looked up the specs and saw that they're rwd... DORI DORI sky!

[Dietcoke]

Factory 260hp/260tq (torque at 2000rpm to redline) at around 15 psi. It has an adjustable wastegate from the factory though hmmmm... I've got hard pipes, a big custom intercooler, intake, lots of tuning, couple wastegate mods, and she pushes a reliable 23 psi. Motor is all forged with a structural oil pan (read: no bolted main caps, the block is stout as they get). Direct injection, lots of potential once the tuning catches up and I can accurately adjust to a big turbo. I really want a gt3071r for it


2830 pounds with a full tank at the scale at SDR, too. :goodjob:

Nice! Its good to see someone has the balls to mod a brand new ride.
