i am planning on putting a CWest kit on my car, with suspension stock, how low would it look from the front and sides? if i put tein coilovers on it how low would it make it or could make it?

 

it will look like **** regardless of which suspension you use.

doesn't matter if its high, low, jacked, burnt....

 

lol, i gues ur not a fan of that kit?

 

Agreed, yuck.

 

dont ruin the car keep it stock

 

just get some nice wheels and your done...if you want to change the look just update the car to a 99 spec...

 

rite on kai

c west is played out

get vertex

 

i didnt know it was that bad. where can i find vertex? i couldnt find any.
If i want to go with the cwest kinda look, what would you recommend?

 

its not that bad, lol do what you want to do, not what a bunch of internet personalities want you to do..

If there are too many Cwest FD's around your area then yeah i would think twice about it, but if your the only one around then who the **** cares...

99 Spec is gonna be played out pretty soon

 

well i really like the cwest kit, but who knows maybe theres another out there that id like, are there any other than cwest, veilside, fusion, invader, wing west, etc. are there any other than the most popular ones that i probly havent heard of?

 

99 spec lip. mazda speed side skirts, carbon fiber rear diffuser, nice set of rims some gt-n's or gramlights with a fat lip, head light converion

that would look super bad *** IMO.

oh, and drop the car an inch or two

 

ok well back to my first question, if i stuck a cwest kit on it how low will it look. if i stick Tein coilovers on it how low will it make it and will i be able to go over bumps, speed bumps, and go down driveways with out any problems?

 

Who cares, get the ******* car first before worrying about a body kit!

 

With just the C-West kit and no lowering, it will look kinda ghetto. Far more so if you leave the stock wheels on there, what with the wheel/fender gap.

 

im getting 18s and a CWest kit, then coilovers.
how low should i make it?

 

With that type of setup 1/2 inch should do the trick.
I just laugh at all those who gave there opinion on the cwest kit on this thread. The man asked how low he should drop his car not what you think of his personal preference in exterior styling.

 

Get what you like...

The CWest looks good on most FDs...

 

There is no should or should not in my opinion. I got a c-west kit with cusco coilovers and 18" rims. Your ride depends on the humps around your area, size of tyres(my 255's rub the rear fender) You can do fender rolling but I decided to just raise the car half an inch - problem solved. Just get the car with all the setup and adjust accordingly after driving the car for awhile. After driving for a week or so you will KNOW how high you want your car to be

 

i think cwest front bumper with feed sides and 99 style wing is the hotness.

 

i think tha looks pretty bad

 

just thought id add my 02.cents

the pict below is my new paint and c-west kit, and i have already scraped the **** out of the bottem of it.... I can make it over %90 of speed bumps, but its the dips that kill me...

 

If you want to go with some Japanese kits, I've been looking at and really like the Wise Sports kit, they have GP Sports, of course RE Amemiya (if you want to spend closer to 10 grand), all kinds of stuff. Go to this site: http://www.rotaryextreme.com/fdindex.html or go to www.nopistons.com and click on one of the other websites, the rotary extreme site has alot of Japanese kits that are pretty cool. But while I'm on the subject, does anyone know where you can get the kit the Apex'i drift car has? I've been trying for a half a freakin hour to attach pics of it but can't do it right now.

 

I'm such a dipshit, I just noticed that IS the Vertex kit. Sorry for wasting everyone's time, haha.

 

wow thanx for the posts.
for adjusting the ride height, is that something that i will be able to do out of my garage, or will i have to take it to a shop to have it done? is it a time consuming thing?

 

You can do it yourself, but considering how little you actually know, I'd have the shop do it. And BTW, when do you plan on buying that FD little man? With all your posts, you seem to have your imaginary car set up pretty good!
