18's look huge on the coupes without the SS kit. They do look better than I thought they would though. I need to get my ass in gear and install my suspension.

yea thats my 2.4TB.. its all on now and everything.. the tune went all according to plan but the only crummy part is i got some sort of vacuum leak somewhere yet.. its royally pissing me off as i have taken off and reinstalled the IM/TB TWICE.. my mileage is kinda taking a hit from this leak n me no likely..





n yea this is the actual color of the TB when taken with a good camera. im going to be doing my calipers, valve cover, interior trim, and coupe other things in this color as well












i took off my chrome grilles too.. looks much better.. ill need a sig update soon lol

yeahh, i dont trust a lot of people in general up there, so mine rarely makes it up, which sucks when people wanna meet up and do a photoshoot or something, but whatev lol once snow comes, she's tucked away in the garage though

i need to break out my camera and take some new pics since the weather is changing lol i havent taken pics of my car in forever...

Found an SS rear bumper that's brand new and my color! Now I need to find front and side skirts. My CC company is going to love me.

Hey 1lowls, what size tire/wheel combo you running on yours? I'm about to say screw it and cut a little out of my front springs to get a stance back. I love my ksports but if you put someone in the backseat it seems like the car is lower in the back and it's annoying. Kinda reminds me of a car with saggy suspension, lol

My Ksports sagged in the rear with no one back there other than 2 10's in the trunk.Thats why I cut mine to begin with. 215/45/17.I cut 3 1/2 coils out but beware it will be easier to bottom out if you go that much.If you do 1-2 coils,it'll ride the same.

Well since we have a couple sets of spring compressors and I can cut them on the car pretty easy I'm thinking of starting with a half in the front and if that's not enough I'll go a full coil, but I just want a stance back and I gotta be careful though with how much I take out because I have a 300+ lb man that rides with me at least once a week, lol. I'm not gonna cut any out of the back. I'm running 225/40/18 (I think) it looks good in the back but in the front I still have too much wheel well gap and its killing me, lol.
