I love the idea of slamming and "stancing" a wagon, but i hope those wheels came with a flame suit, cuz you're gonna need it. :goodjob: tho, i like it

Those wheels are ridiculous.

I'm pretty excited to see this through.

02-21-2012, 08:48 PM
lol thats the mixed response i was expecting. Its cool, everyone is entitled their own opinions. I want to see it through as well. As far as the wheels i wanted something different and less typical. Hopefully, i can translate the vision that's in my head to the car perfectly.

Oh, how I wish I had a wagon. I'll stick with my CB7 for now though until I can find a 5th gen five speed wagon. I like the wheels.

Again thanx for all the love.. It's responses and support like these that makes a person so motivated to continue. Thank you all!!!


I'll try to keep this thread and my stanceworks build updated as much as possible, but with life and a gf you'll never know what could and will come up.
My deadline for the exterior is may 15th, hopefully everything pans out.
Next week I'll get started on my 5 lug conversion and purchase tires. The paint and body will.be addressed last, after I'm done tweaking the suspension and fitment.

I got tire of my car's left headlight beam aiming really right(PO accident:mad:). So, i go out the grinder and welder and started fixing the ish... (Don't mind the contaminated weld-its strong enough)

You can sorta see the crazy alignment issues(hood purchased 3/17/2012)

Next pay period I'll do a few measurements for the rear wheels to see if i should have then widened 3" and change the offset. Also, the hood with be addressed and a thousand other things. Hopefully smaller tires will be ordered soon too(I hate how ballooned these are) Then body work and paint WOOTY WOOT!!! But thanks for looking and PEACE!!!!

^^^ Why didn't you get new rotors while you had everything apart?

Those tires aren't ballooned at all. And the camber isn't perfect at all, either.

Love the wagon, dude. The earlier pics you have up? Put some nice wheels and tires on it and call it a day.

NO TINT!!! This car looks good without tint.

At least these are my opinions...except for the part about the balloon and camber.

Good luck, man. Later, QD.

There was no need for the rotors. I sanded then down to the bare rotor(light turn)

When i say the camber is perfect> i mean it worked out so the fenders wouldn't get raped
and i'm starting to have second guesses on the wheels.:???:

I would definitely finish the car with these wheels. They are unique, fit pretty well, and will stand out HUGE at a show. Unless you've got another set that's as cool on the radar, it would be a tragedy for this car to end up on another lame set of XXR's or something.

I agree with QD as well, tires actually look fine on there.

I totally agree about the tint. It wouldn't fit with the overall look. And the wheels are starting to grow on me.

car is looking good with them wheels. I def agree with f22-t/man trans swap in the future, def a good motor for boost man, and don't sell that would be stupid keep it for a daily and why a cobra, you could easily smoke a cobra with the right build man and plus there not good on gas.

Honestly, I love this car and I hate the thought of getting rid of it, but the cobra is my dream car. The wagon really was just a cheap car that I picked up becAuse my volvo 244 crapped on me. I wanted to do work because I've never jumped in a car as much as this one. Besides, I can always get another cheap dd later lol. Sorry if it's hard to hearts, but it's the truth. Plus, I'll still finish the car that my goal. So there!!!

That's what I'm thinking. Or if you're wanting the cobra so bad, why put more money into this wagon? You're not going to get that money back. You're going to end up further back than when you started.

And I wouldn't put a turbo on that. That's just another outlet for problems and a lot more money being put in that you won't get back out. Plus this car looks more like a slow-n-low cruiser. It should be used as such, lolol. Later, QD.

Lol jk guys.. yeah, ive tossed the idea around in my head so many times. Sell or not to sell. I'll probably keep the car, but i was thinking on the standards of paying the cobra off faster.
The turbo idea is just one of those things you would love to do to your car, but in reality it wouldnt work. Besides, my subframe is way too love to even enjoy the power somewhat. I mean that's what the cobra would be used for. My power horse lol

LOL if you want to pay it off sooner, just fight the urge, sell all the mods you have for this car back out and just save and save and save..but i'd finish up the 5 lug swap, throw a paint on it and just maintain it then get a cobra and garage/cover it and bring it out for the w/e at most
