    Default Uh oh, got me a new ride ;)

    I just picked this up. Overall I love the car. Im considering getting some different wheels in the near future. It has stretched 235's all the way around, Im not sure the wheel specs yet. It runs great. Only mods are Stance Coilovers, Tanabe exhaust (AMAZING) and the wheels.

    Whatcha think?

    I probly wont lower the front anymore. I dont care about being VIP or anything. It looks good the way it is. I daily drive it. ONLY thing I may do is get some nicer wheels

    It took me a while to find one that I wanted. I didnt really care what color, it just HAD to have black leather. Eventually I may go for a more VIP look, for but daily driving I thinks its pretty decent the way it is. The stance coilovers can go ALOT lower

    Very nice I'm glad to see another one on the site... IMPORTANT ADVICE FROM EXPERIENCE: Check the ball joints or they will screw you over. Mine sounded like a rubber squeak for about a week then Wham! Side ways wheel at 55mph.

    its clean, lower the front so that the height is flush all around, and then it will be super straight.
