i rock megans, though i do perfer teins i had Tein HE on my old s13.. megans are ok. They do the job.
the dampers are questionable. I couldnt give you any track impressions since i havent had the funds to go to the track with my car.

Dont NOT get a body kit because people are talking ****. People are always gonna talk **** no matter what you do. I f you want a body kit get one. Use this forum for technical advice regarding what mechanically works, not for advice on "look related" modifications. this is rx7club, Hatin asses will jump on you from all parts of the globe.

to each his own..
I can guarantee you that not really anyone on this forum has any underbody splitters done, because of that attitude "bodykits are ugly/ricer" etc..


anyways, dont let them discourage you.. build your car the way you want. Stock appearance wont make magazine coverage, movies, shows, media events. Long as you apply a tasteful appeal to it. IMO Japanese styling *no cheap parts, horrible skinny 17x7 type wheels etc*

It's not a skid plate, it's a undertray. It's not supposed to hit anything.

This thread is worthless.

To the OP: If you don't have the money for a TII sway then how are you going to build a "show" car? You probably would like the veil side front end on an FC.

And what is this babble about an undertray being a revolutionary idea? Stay in school kids...

Turbo II Rotor is entitled to his opinion. This is after all a thread asking for opinions. He may be a bit blunt about it but if people cant understand what an opinion is then they really don't need to be on the forum. Honestly the body kit is going to get the op a lot of ribbing in the real world as well, especially if he cant back it up with any power or above stock performance of any sort.

Someone pointed out the unseen costs of a body kit and how the could easily add up to over $2000. That would get the OP well on his way to a turbo swap or even a whole TII. I know I would be much more satisfied with a turbo than a body kit. I'd rather be fast than look fast and be slow.

Hypertek, is posting pictures of cars that are quite possibly faster than mine and have fairly conservative body kits in my opinion. There is a huge difference between that and putting a body kit on a slow as **** NA.
