it is/now

 

Yeah Phi, this wheel thing has taken a lot out of me.. That's the main reason I haven't been shooting or coming to meets.. Just haven't been feeling the car enough to drive it lately.. Then the battery died, so I was all "eh" about it.. It's been sitting so long, I need to renew the registration and get the inspection done as well and an oil change.. LOL!!!

But a lot of folks are waiting.. I know of some other Niss members that have been waiting longer than me (Dick Wong, and I Wayne has 3 sets himself coming), and there are some my350z guys waiting as well.. From what I hear, to prevent this from happening again, Venaci is going to break away from Work and start developing their own designs in the US..

Chris, you're exactly right.. It's been a month actually since I was told that they were "at Port Long Beach".. Then they had to go through a "logging in" process where they ensure that all parts of the shipment actually made it over.. Now it's in the process of being at the office I'm guessing and will now begin shipping out slowly to the customers.. So it just being in the States isn't the end of the process..

I've only seen one person on facebook receive their wheels.. So I guess they're in the shipping process now. I just gave my Wayne my mailing addy last night, (was going to have them shipped to GS Motorsports) so hopefully I'll be getting them soon.. Or at least hearing something positive.

 

I had a buddy that went through a similar "rut" with his Vette. Battery died and wasn't really feelin it. Then one day he happened to jump in it (primarily because it was a good weather day), hit the spray button once or twice (hehe) and just fell in love again. You just need a good date with her and all will be well again

 

I was able to get my front ride height dialed in. I'm completely maxed out in the rear and I still need 1/2 inch.

I wonder if shorter springs will do the trick?

 

no cutting! don't you be cheap damn it! haha

 

LOL. The money I already have in to this new setup and look does NOT justify a half-asssed mod like cutting springs.

I'm gonna call Swift springs in the morning and see if they'll trade me out for a shorter pair

 

Where are the pics JBF?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chris i bet he has atleast 2k in his coils. do you think he would actually cut the springs?

 

here's what I have right now. I need to cut the toe arms down about 1/4 inch from each end due to the lack of negative camber I'm trying to run.

doodoo cellphone pic for now

 

So you need more - or more + camber? you could put the spc toe bolt back in and turn it all the way you need it and then use the toe arm to fine tune unless you already did that

 

I'm gonna give a little more negative camber but I need to get the ride height done first.

I don't want to use the toe bolts just yet. But JasonZ-ya told me that I could cut them down some for more adjustment.

 

Yea the length of them was for more positive camber. lol you of course are goin the opposite of the norm. Your pics want me to get some 11" wheels and go to 0 offset in the rear. Just wish i could get in my garage bein that low and on coils

 

yes and no... I've hung out with mr. jbf quite a bit...

 

^ shenanigans

 

so you guys were Butt buddies at one time?

 

in more or less words...yes...
