Ok so the vid is actually quite bad....that was on a narrow road.
540 to the other side, then 180 back to the beginning Puh

Waiting on a lateral rod and RCA's to fix the suspension geometry.
Then have to change the remaining bushings and that's about it.
Well..I'm pretty broke as well...so no more parts till next year I think..haha Puh

looking good mate! Thumbsup

Don't forget to shorten those bumpstops at the rear between your springs. With those shortstokes and the bumpstops at stock lengt it is not the damper who damps. Smile

Had to raise the car because of rubbing against those stupid kouki plastic strips on the fenders. Going to fix that up soon.

You can't scratch the rims against the sidewalk, think that's what he means... Smile

Anyways, looks really good, but I told you that already I guess... Thumbsup

Took those stupid strips of the fender edges and rolled the inner lips.
It now rubs at the rear right wheel only...still have to put the adj. panhard rod on.

With the new wheels it looks sweet!!!And seems that you have a little fun...Thats why I WANT A HACHIROKU!!!

Posted: Wed Sep 26, 2007 5:53 pm Post subject:

Lowerd the front. Looks nice!! Needs a little bit more rolling at this height but I must say, making the wheels fit was easier that I thought.
Gonna get some Swift springs for the rear. Those drop the car a bit more.
If that's not low enough then I'm going to cut the TRD springs!! Evil or Very Mad

@Lipinhu: Man are you for real??? There is nothing better looking on a car than wheels that barely fit under the fenders! Wink

PS.
Man my car needs a zenki lip and some sideskirts so bad!!!!!! Drool

I have OEM sideskirts for sale Cool
