For you mike... Old pic but close enough

 

people really need to get off the stance/hellaflush ball sack..... lets see some of those super stretched tire cars with 10 degrees of negative camber hope on a road coarse and not break crap 2 turns into lap 1.

different strokes for different folks. to get low and get good handling takes a lot of work and a lot of money. you either buy amazing coilovers(not stance, megan, d2 etc) or you need to build the ride height into the car. not an easy task.

nice car mike.... still dont like the wheels(just not my style) but everything pulls together pretty good. you get my vote.

 

If all OP did was drive around town trying to look cool, then slamming it would be fine. The problem with this car is it sees the track once in a while. Check out the YYZ thread and you'll see that even Mr. John Powell agrees that when it comes to these cars you can have performance or low... not both. Currently the best track performing setup appears to be FE5 struts with YYZ springs and rear Konis. Pretty sure that's what Wang's running also.

This car is beautiful. The build is well thought out with priority given to function and quality. If looks were the most important thing to the OP in this build, the car would probably be slammed and on super rare varrstoens. Then it WOULD look amazing just like a few other cars on here.

It's a different build type for different purposes. It's almost an apples/oranges thing.

 

^^^see coming from a guy that has different tastes. to each is their own and thats that.

 

I like it minus all the stickers

 

sickk!!

 

thanks guys and meh the stickers are just repping my sponsors/homies
