My FD - Koni Yellows, Tein S.techs *pics*
here's a few pics of the new suspension. Koni Yellows with the tein s.techs.
Top perch in the front, middle in the rear. Really don't like how the back sits, I think I'm going to put it on the top perch in the rear as well, for a more agressive look. let me know what ya think. I plan on getting new rubber, 245/45 on all four corners. if I were to do 245/50 rear, 245/45 front, would that help? I'm just trying to firgure it out before I raise that *** up a bit. thanks in advance.
got around to painting the calipers too, man what a difference that makes!
enjoy, let me know what you think.

Hm, I like how the back is low on your car. My car is on Eibach pro kits and the rear is just a bit higher than the front. 245/50 tire is going to be taller, not sure why you'd want to mix the tire sizes. Just go with 245/45 all around and you can rotate your tires

Lowering the rear even more IMO, its going to look like crap. If you want a better stance using the stock rims, you'll be better off getting something like a 10mm spacer. If you plan to AutoX or put the car on a road course, I would recommend taking the spacers off for those events, but that's just me.
If you want to look into spacers, talk to Rishie at AutoRND:

Your FD will difinetely look better with the rear raised.
Where did you purchase your shock setup? Did you do coil overs with hight adjustment?

No no, the Koni Yellows are adjustable shocks. 3 perch settings. and I have tein s.tech springs. 1.3 front, and a 1.4 rear drop. there is even a **** to adjust stiffness.

A few quick snaps of the 7 after it's inagural track flogging at Street of Willow. Forgot the camera at home so no pictards at the track. The 7 took it in stride abiet a few annoying boost issues. Didn't have time yet to put the FEED skirts on yet or canards, but I have some prettier pictures when I do. Thanks Ken and Makito for the diffuser, bumper, and paint!
*ignore how the bumper is on, i didn't fit it right as I was in a major rush. zipties FTW!

Haha, almost fine. Except for the fact the corners are held on by zipties, which for some is fine, haha. Zipties for fine for my 240, but I wanted to keep my FD a little classier.
