It's sitting high Russ, I'll get more pictures of it today after work. It's sitting high because I have a s14 wheel with a flat tire on the other side so the car is leaning on the driver's side pretty bad

Yeah, I'm either going to take a little camber out to get the tire flush, run a 30mm spacer instead, or go even lower lol. one of those three will happen.

Those wheels are dope! Got any full side shots?

I'm liking the kaleidoscope black paint much more than the grey too!

thanks, they're one of my favorite sets of wheels. and not yet. I still have the front end off from painting. it sits really high too since there's no motor in it right now. I'll throw the front end together and get a full side shot on my day off. might put a few bricks on the subframe to bring the front end down a bit haha

Just have to clay the pistons now to check for clearance, then put all the engine accessories back on it.

I wish I could go that low. My car squats way too hard to be that low. I'd be ripping off my back bumper every time I did a pull. I need stiffer coilovers first

Beefier springs, but I think if you fall somewhere in between those to pics with ride height it will still look Rad and give you still some suspension travel.

fd's don't look good tucking IMHO. I think it looks sick the very first pic where your tires are showing. Plus you won't scratch the hell out of those pretty wheels. First pic is perfect drift fitement if that's what your worried about.

Not worried about fitment from wheel to over fender, worried about smashing my bumper and side skirts off when the car squats. Once I get stiffer spring, I'll be fine
