2006mt Progression Thread

Hey guys. I have had my G sedan for a few years now but just recently started modding it. before the G I had a 05 scion tC, 03 gy6 swapped Ruckus, and my daily 1990 Miata.

I like to keep things real simple. I love the Stance movement but still like to keep things drivable. Honestly, I would hate to have a sedan that I cannot use.

The mods include:

Tein Basics, dropped all the way down
Volk GTM 19x9.5 et31 235/35 ; 19x10.5 et 33. 255/35
natural camber
rear fenders rolled flat

thanks guys!. I am honestly very content with the drop. It is low enough to not look stupid but high enough to make the car still drivable with 5 people. having 1 slammed car is enough for me. I scrape frame daily with my Miata.

Enough said lol sweet miata dude. So there's no other suspension mods besides the coilovers? I tke it you're not running spacers correct? I like this look I may try to replicate it minus the wheels of course I'm going to get some different wheels.

I am running a 5mm spacer upfront because my wheels were very close to the suspension arm on the inside and I did not want to have any issues. I do have a SPC rear camber kit which I may install to get toe back into spec.

Thanks guys! OEM Front lip is next on my list of things to do. I also recently blacked out the chrome door handles and bumper lights. I think it may be a little too much but here is a quick picture I took today.

thinking about adding a 5mm spacer out back, this is how it is stilling right now.



Currently working on a badgeless grill. planning on color matching it to the wheels.
