Zeal Function XS On The FC
...I used to have Kei Office XR.."Drift Spec" on my S13.. 10/12k Spring Rate
They were great for drifting but horrible on the street.
Thats why on my FC i've went with the Zeals Street/Track Setup..
My wife might actually want to ride in this car


I miss the old girl sometimes..

first off your car looks sick. props. really clean

second how do you like those coilovers. how do they perform? im trying to justify buying a higher end coilover system but the price of those look hard to beat.

All right, I might as well post up pics.

Here's my car, I think the front is way too low. It's stupid as hell. The worst thing is that the front is at maximum ride height :p

Oh well, at least it's completely corner balanced on custom spring rates.

Stance GR+ Pro

Purchased these brand new from Rishie @ Auto RnD



Before:


After:




I won't be able to say for sure how I like them since they have not seen the track yet. But so far, it rides smooth, not too rough, and adheres to the road well. Spring rates are 8kgF/6kgR.

This thread is Alright. And everyone knows slammed is not good for a tracked car.

DrftWerks is an idiot, I'm really waiting for him to get banned. Someone PLEASE ban him. All his does is sling **** at anyone who objects to a slammed car and posts that photoshopped picture of his car.

DrftWerks, Please seem educated, use constructive crticism, and read the Suspension Tech forum or get the **** off here.

I wouldn't mind bagging a spare FC one day. When I get the money to have multiple FCs of course. I think an FC laying frame would look sick. Especially with wheel wells cut out and tucking 20's or something. And yes, I'm aware it would lose all of it's performance. That's why I would do it with an old s4 base spare FC.

This looks sick as hell. I like it. not for a daily though. And if this pic is photoshopped, he's a pro with photoshop.
