and the matte GTR, i just got confirmation from my friend who`s friends with the owner of that car and says they`re real, but im not gonna go as far to vouch for the owner whom i dont know personally..
and it wouldnt be the gheyest thing at the show anyway, we had a shop there with a handful of sick rides, and they were all rocking forgestar, an NSX some sick amg benzs and 2 gallardos, like fckin forgestar on 100k, 200k cars, fckin ridicilous


ah the TSX is fake, ok now should be interesting his response in the thread i asked him...
the Fit, yea its gonna have 400whp, but when hes rolling stretched and stanced, you really wonder how much power he`s gonna be able to put down

I'm going to be nice today and let you in on a little secret Adon, you need traction links and/or a proper alignment. Like Blain said no one has had the issues you're having with their rear wheel setup and quite a few have more aggressive specs so this only leaves your alignment(caster), tire size or your coilovers (dampening or spring rate too soft??) to blame!

Oh and P.s. my car is no where near finished and who in their right mind would drive a car with that much poke (mexiflush)

here is how it sits now but it's still not finished as far as stance goes.

Celestak, fck i seen a few scattered pics here and there thought you actually rolled like that didnt look right... i always assumed you were gonna do some sort of mini widebody in the rear like Status did..
are you doing it for both the front and the rear fenders, or just the rears...
when complete gonna be WOW!

just for kicks, how much camber is that right now in those pics
and now im looking closely at your pictures and im seeing the tire tuck in, thats what im after in my rear too... and you`re right on both counts, it`s both my caster that`s off, especially in the front..... and the nexens run larger, the sidewalls are a lot taller than my old nankangs, im gonna be switching back to nankangs later on will help a lot im sure

hey just editing to what Shane said below me, one thing i noticed when i was looking at my friends 370z, and from your pics, that there is SOOO much fckin fender on your cars, the fender line from the bottom of it to the top where it starts curving into the car, so much bigger than our cars, fck you can do a mean pull on a 370 i bet

Lol, i really hope you're planning to pull those fenders. Will never look right with straight fenders and that much camber...

being lower changes the geometry. the traction rod pushes the wheel towards the rear of the wheel well. installing an adjustable rod allows you to pull it back forward.

sick setup obviously, im no expert, but like the rest of you guys in here and im not being negative because this is bawse, im just really wondering how the fck is this gonna fit without bodywork...
is he planning on doing a 20 series tire or something, i mean shlt, seems like things have gone beyond reasonable when i see shlt like that yellow 370with mexiflush and now this, seems like it`s trending towards throw on the widest wheels even if it takes oni camber to make it happen.... think the fine line and limit was reached by that Milt guy with the white Z and blue faced wheels, thats perfection
+1 whether people are saying he knows his **** or not, you wouldn't be able to tell from those horrendous fenders, those are prob the worst i've ever seen on a vq. We shall wait and see but i won't hold my breath.

Celestak, what are your camber settings at? Looking nuts, but I agree that a flared fender would match the camber well. In for final product

Jackus, any updated shots of the widebody with the new wheel set up (since you were selling the Jlines)?

just cell phone pics, this is all I have right now. Im actually working on building an lsjuan to throw in there. front camber is going back to somewhere in the low 2s since I dont need 3.8 or whatever I had it at to fit the jlines.. havent had a chance to lower the rear just a tad bit more, the garage is at 125f in the shade lol.

How it sits in the back, once I lower it like 1/4 inch I will go less negative.
