The shipping was phenomenally huge but in the end it was worth it I guess, since we're constrained at work to where we can't modify our cars (they pay us a monthly auto subsidy so they can partially dictate how we use them) other than with FACTORY parts - which is why in the past you might have seen a lot of Monte Carlo SS's with Corvette rims, etc.

Anyway I did get hold of a Sony T33 digicam (5 megapixels) although I sized them down so they don't take up the whole screen:





This was outside in the parking lot of Dot's Restaurant in Wahiawa by the way, hence the very homey, country atmosphere...and yes, I'm on the hunt for CHROME center caps.

 

PS. Does anybody besides me think it needs spacers, maybe around 15-20mm each?

 

rear needs to be spaced but it looks sick!

 

Thanks for the input. The truth is that in person both the front and rear wheels appear to be inset about the same amount, around 1/2" to 3/4". Of course I'd have to install my factory mud guards first because the tires would then stick out a lot more on the bottom since the fender line curves inward going down from the top.

 

those chrome fx 20's look great on black. i know how you feel about springs though. seems like every road is under construction or in need of construction. just gotta drive slalom style around all the potholes

 

Howzit h2mann - hey I grad from Castle!

Yeah the budget for the state's Roadways Div. must be hurtin'! I did all that (slalom driving) for the last few years with my other two cars because both were a little slammed and got tired of it, seemed like I was dragging the chassis on everything I drove over. So I'm kinda trapped now, don't want a drop again yet don't want the wheelwell gap looking Too big...

 

cool, go Knights. I grew up in Kaneohe, but went to school in town, on top of the hill in Kalihi. I was debating the suspension thing too, but after I got my wheels decided to get springs, still waiting for them though. 2 1/2 months

 

Hmmm, Kam School grad? Pleased to make your acquaintance!

Over two months for your springs? Wow, I recall that each time I needed springs I went to Ron's Racing on - Kilihau(?) Street, the one in the airport industrial area, and one time they just happened to have the right set for my car already in stock, the other two times they had to bring them in but it was really quick, maybe a week at the most.

The only thing I can think of for the delay would be that our cars are still too new, so different spring sets that were being developed are only shipping out now or something? Anyway good luck and I hope it doesn't take too much longer.

 

i ordered them through Eurosport. The H&Rs are backordered but should be here within the week. It was taking so long i almost went with the Eibachs instead, but Im in no rush so I will just wait.

 

Yeah the H&Rs are super quality, made in West Germany I believe, and worth the wait. Good luck and please post pics when you're done! Or I might even see them in person if you happen to be cruising the same time I am.

 

absolutely, I will post pics as well. hopefully see you at the next Ggathering

 

Here is my off road attack vehicle!

 

Wow looks just absolutely awesome without a drop.

 

I was going to say the same thing. Also look how fast he got'em on - you can see in the second pic the FedEx truck didn't leave yet!

 

HAHA... Yea i was sweatign in my work cloths putting these things on in my friends driveway! was thinking of a drop saw another guys on here with Htec springs for an 06 G on his 07 g35X. Anyone have any reccomendations?
