[pipeline]

[carbongs]

sorry for the quality of picture as well, it was cropped from my camera phone. i love the camber on this car and how it matches up perfectly on the fenders, i do dare say that it is VIP styled

[grnteg]

He's a friend of mine and he has Stance coilovers. Perfect setup for drifting. The car is awesome.

[carbongs]

I appologize anyone this is about to offend


OMG why does everyone like slammed? It looks like broken suspension, and you guys must skeet over the thought of hitting speed bumps because you all get raging hard-ons from these super impractical cars. It's the worst fad ever, and the thing I hate most about IA members,

[puregroove]

It's a sick car nonetheless... --saw it today. --had the deep dish, gloss black, steelies I think. --nice runs too. I dare say, I would rock a miata like that. http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l230/puregroove_dot_org/thumbup.gif

its said that he drifts, and does pretty well..

[87 Turbo II]

its said that he drifts, and does pretty well..
but apparently he dailys it too. I just hate slammed cars, not just htis one but people on IA go crazy every time one is posted. And I pre-appologized before I posted.

[EJCallaway]

SLAMMED FTMFW!!!!!!!!

[d_day87]

i know the guy, it's a mean lookin little go cart. he also runs a set of red 0 offset sport max 002 i believe is the name. it's funny tho b/c the guy that drives it is like 6'4" tall. lol

[imbatman]

it think u can really do, literally, everything on ur car as long as u pull it off.....and in this case, that miata did..........but i know its gonna suck on speed bumps though

[slow_hatch]

Sh!ts slammed :eek: They should add obstacles into drifting events, suchs speedbumps, pot holes, etc :D

[tron]

is slamming cars a "fad"
i thought fads were something that people do
but eventually they move on
like now everyone is just sticking to a more clean look
i thought people have been slamming cars since forever

[FasTech]

holy ****, I feel bad for his shocks...


I feel bad for his tires...... look at the camber on the right side. It does look fuking sexy though.

[.blank cd]

yeah, slamming isnt a fad. people have been and will be doing it forever. case in point: lowriders

[quickdodge®]

It's the worst fad ever[/RANT]

You're kidding, yes? I can show you proof that it's definitely NOT a fad AND that's it's definitely NOT worst ever. The first car, out of about 15 that I've owned, that I "slammed" was my 1980 Datsun 210 SW. When did I "slam" this car? April of 1988. Twenty years ago.

Those three right there were all done in 1988, 1990 and 1991 respectively. Fads go away. After a brief amount of time.



and the thing I hate most about IA members, [/RANT]

Worst ever? Shall I prove this wrong as well?

What is that that rests on the roofs of these two cars? Oh my! Unused roof racks. Now this would (without argument) be one of THE worst fads ever.

Now is slamming a car practical? Not really. Does it look good? Shiit yea it does. If there's one mod that everyone can do to make their car better looking, it's to lower it. About 99% of all cars made have a better look with less/zero wheel gap.

Hopefully, and I feel it is so, you've been schooled. But I'm not trying to rile you, just educating. Later, QD.

There is a HUGE difference in slamming and lowriding. One of the differences is the car. The other is how it is lowered. In the car, reasoning, if you're dropping a land yacht, it is referred to as either lowered or dropped. Compact cars are considered slammed or even (and I hate this term) dumped. How is it lowered? If you're using hydraulics, your car is either juiced, tucked or (believe it or not) lifted. Waaaay before the days of raising your car to fit bigger wheels under it, when you had your switches, your car was "lifted." I think air bags may have adopted some of the same terminology. If you're on springs, coils or heated/cut springs, you're slammed, or dumped, depending on how low you are. Later, QD.

I saw three lowriders on 85N coming home last night. They all had club plaques in the rear. I hope there will be more and more around the area. I love them. :yes:

[Mr. Clean]

yeah that miata is ridiculous and he does daily drive it.... there is ZERO wheel gap, he said he rolled the fenders quite a bit but the **** looks sexy as can be. he lives up here by me in the g-ville. he comes to our little meets all the time.

his s/n is gumby... he's been a member since '04 but only has like 23 posts haha.

[Gumby]

Thanks for the comments guys. Yes i daily it. Yes it eats tires. Yes it scrapes. Yes i love it.

[mushroom_toy]

Yeah I think hes on here>? He has come to sokme of our Gainesville/oakwood meets before, and the car is really pimp.

[01SpectraGSX]

I love the look of a slammed car but until I can afford a DD I can't slam my car for the practical reasons of I have to drive it daily. (that and I can't find springs that lower it enough or cheap enough coilovers (cheapest being $500.00) I am saving for them though.


That Miata is damn sexy though!!
