That looks real good, but I think removing the TII decals from the fenders would enhance the overall look of the car greatly (trust me - they contrast the wheels and the paint and throw the scheme off).

And yes, by all means lower it some!

They are SE37Ks. Yes, I do need to lower the car and I am thinking about HKS springs. Well, about the decal, the car had been repainted by the owner before and whoever did that use tape over and paint around the decal. In other words, I can't take it off unless I repaint the whole car.

Not a bad idea, Turbo II in bronze to match the wheels. As long as it doesn't add HP I guess thats ok

My friend does a little vinyl cutting on the side.. I'm sure he could make it for you in any colour you wanted. If you wanted it to look EXACTLY like the original, it would probably help if someone could scan it in and email it to me/post it here. floyd@ka.net

The jackass who repainted my car painted over the old red striping on the trim so when I removed the new stripes there were a couple spots where it took the paint off to show the old stripes. I didn't think they would be stupid enough to not take the old stripes off and I was IRATE when I saw the old stripes. Now that area, all around my car, looks like ***. I used some touch up paint in the couple tiny spots where it took paint off, but now I need to get all that **** repainted.

Your car is very nice though. Seeing clean examples of Turbo II's like that make me want to buy one. The rims look great on it too, and I think it looks great at stock ride height, although most seem to disagree with me. I think having a bit of uniform wheel gap with the rear up slightly higher than the front makes the car look mean.

Those look awesome! Looks like a nice JDM type ride you would see across the pacific!

What size did you get? 17's? What offset?
