Thanks!

Very neutral, but I definitely need to re-valve to coil-overs and go stiffer spring rate or save up and get Penskes/Tein SRCs. I was bottoming out on the high speed turn 4a-5 section.

Yes. Your car is too stockish to get away with a wing like that. Unless you are willing to take a ton of heat for it. See: MX3

17x10 unknown offset fronts
18x9.5 +12 rears with a 245 40 feddy



engine bay is not done yet, but it is a large streetport with a S362 Borg warner. It should get all kinds on sideways on the track.

Stock ride height, engine in.. full tank of fuel and taller front tyres might do that (235/45-17 front 255/40-17 rear), curiously i didnt notice until you lot mentioned it and it it sort of does look a bit taller in the front, i measured the guard to ground distance and the difference is only about 1cm. I do have some coilovers that are on their way in as soon as i get a good breaker bar, heat gun, and some motivation.

I have always loved your FD Kai, but given than you and I are about the same age I can understand why you want to pull back on the exotic bodykit look.

Yup, did the body kit look and now it is time to go back to stock. I have been contemplating this for so long which means I am ready.

I am now 38 and I have high school kids always trying to check the car out, when teens start checking you out that means there is something wrong there, not that I dont mind them since lots of them are hot, I would like to stay away from jailbait and temptation...LOL

Stock white always looked the cleanest IMO. Nice wheels...

It sure does, too bad I no longer have those wheels but it went to a good home, was re-finished and now looks like new.

Now, now... that's no reason to go back to stock stock I think as you get older, you should have the most obnoxious car possible as your fun car. I say go rice the F*&? out of it and let all the kids be jealous

OK, Let me take that back, Don't do stuff like MX3 with crazy wing with stock body.. When I mean go "rice the F*&? out", I meant go all out and do ALL OUT!!

And for you youngins (less than 21), I say be respectful of your car and keep it more stock
