well I got some wheels well they were off my subie but I need some spacers now! They are 18 by 7.5 with 215/35!

 

Sweet Ryu. I'll be there on the 9th. Look for a white FC and an afro

 

thanks, haha ya she kinda feels like a 4x4 with the 17s on. I am trying to work a deal for some ground control coilovers as a temporary fix.

 

ground controls are a coil over spring and sleave set up on your choice of shock. im using tokico illuminas

 

gtlive in utah drifting my wrecked fc.



and te vert im rebuilding.. when it ran last year.


pic is a lie

and yes i had a lame *** bold letter saying on it for 1 event. ***** lame.

 

thats a sad way to go....had one sit on my face once

 

Rock on josh. I have been meaning to call you and see whats up. whats the word on resurrecting the vert?

 

Work VS 17 x 8 in front and 17 x9.5 in tha rear +25






note the cheap *** camera mount

 

can you get some better shots of the fitment? are you using any spacers? tire size?

im selling my advans to buy some MB weapons 17x9 +17 all around, probably need a 10mm spacer up front and 20mm in the back

 

Yeah, my **** is dropped all the way in tha rear, but still needs another inch or so(now ill mess with the spring perch to lower it). tires are 235/40/17 with the 9.5 and stretch a bit, ill get some 225's later for less traction, cuz it already grips too much to initiate a drift. Those weapons look fresh!!! i dont think youll have any fitment issues with that offset. if anything ya might need to roll it out a bit, without any spacers.

This sunday i pulled my coilovers off to change the spring (rate) and found the fronts are 12's(i custom ordered 10's). i ended up changing the rears from a 13 to 12 and the car feels well balanced. im happy with the suspension now, i got a chance to do some 3rd gear manjis, but we'll see at Firebird this weekend.

 

Tatakai what size tire are you planning on running? you shouldn't need a spacer at all, i have 17x9.5 + 15 all around, i had to roll the lip in the rear, no pull. i have about -1 degree of camber in the rear with a 225/45 and its close but clears. my fronts i had to roll and pull slightly but not to much.

 

ahh so you're nate/ryan/johns buddy, i was trying to find you're post with the specs for comparison, cuz i remember seeing a pic of your car on those and how they were pretty much perfect fit without spacers.

215/45 falken rt615 in the front, 215/45 federal 595ss in the back

also hope to be sending my knuckles to lindsay next week, otherwise i'd definately be doing 225/45 in the front

 

nate with the green s14? ryan with the r33? whose john

 

project sour lemon fc

i used to drift with them on forza 2 and then i bought my fc, nate showed me a pic of your fitment, and i was like

 

******* AMAZING!!!!
I just KAME!!!

 

 

What are the sizes on those CR Kai's? More pictures too!

 

18x9.5+12. enkeis and 18x10.5+15. these are my spares the main wheels are riverside vip 18x9.5/10.5 but my friends been flaking for over a month getting the tires on those.

 

never met john in person, so im guessing sidewaysnate and sd9k ryan? yeah they play forza alot lol

 

yup that's them.

here's some shots from last portland event. never knew i could drift in 3rd gear n/a.. so yea a lot of new experience for me. 60mph+ entries and 3rd gear? on a narrow track?? i did a lot of spinning into the dirt, made me wish i brought my helmet face shield with me. lol

 

That bottom pic looks badass with both the front and rear smoking. I wish I could hit those kinda speeds at my track.

 

haha i think that was one of the ones i recovered too. i'd come in too hot, have to tap the brakes, lock em up, dirt drop one tire, bring it back and finish the corner hella sick

 

They DO set up a 3rd gear first corner sometimes. Pretty bad ***. My bro with the RHD 240 KILLS it! I think he is in OC Md this weekend tho. Plus his car is at Hybrid getting tuned.

 

Tatakai, what track is that? How much does it cost?

 

i doubt you'd want to make the treck, but there's only going to be one more event there for the year, the guy running the events is just eating the cost too much. it's Portland International Raceway in Portland, Oregon. the only reason i've started going there is to support the guy. a big accident happened a few months back that jepordized drifting at the track all together, and ever since then there really hasn't been anyone showing up. last event had MAYBE 15 cars.

$75 to drive, $10 to watch. they used to just use turns 1, 2, and 3, and a month ago they had an all-day all-track event that was pretty epic. but that i think put the nail in the coffin. all-day all-track event and only 15 cars showed up. TONS of seat time for drivers, but the guy is just losing so much money.
