Looks like your in the same position as me with the control arms.
Cut and raised struttowers and still hitting the chassis with it

Sooo... After school today, I figured I'd take care of some business. So I loaded up the goods and headed to the Civic!




Then, of course, I had to get the car off of the ground. First the wheel dollies...



Then the jack!



Great success. So I went on to change the tie rods, tie rod ends, lower ball joints (what a bitch!), and also putting on the camber arms. But of course I had to do a test fit first!



Oh dear... That'll never do! The car was sitting on the tire. So after a short while, some bloodshed, and some extra strut tower cutting, I ended up here...



Not bad...but not low enough. Something is holding it up, and although I didn't see anything hitting, I know it HAS to be the camber arms. So we'll see what I can figure out. No way in hell I'm gonna roll higher because of some gay control arms... Fuck that. So stay tuned!

[rsingh3g]

Man I can't wait to see those wheels on

[06tiburonofdoom]

Yeah, I'm planning on it! As long as it doesn't rain... Hopefully I don't run into any little things I need to get, either. I'm hoping for the best!

Anyhow, here's some pics of the 15x10s with 195/45s...



And next to a 15x8.5"...


Also, here's a little Equip update (probably the only one for a good while)...


And lastly, my dining room, at the moment. Haha


Alright! Last picture update until these bitches are on.

yall going to the cupcake at crossroads i want to go just got the clutch in the hatch but looks like a pos with all different paint and primer lol i will probably take tib even though it isnt stanced

[06tiburonofdoom]

Rear tires are mounted! I'll post pics once I get home tonight. I've also got all of the Civic's front end parts and bushings loaded up right now, which I'm going to drop off at the car's location after work. Hopefully I can get going on all of that tomorrow! So ready to get this shit done.

[240benzo]

mmm mmm girl! you guna have these on by the meet right?! i hope i can get my snapped 50mm lugnut off so i can tuck rim for the meet
any ideas? =]

[06tiburonofdoom]

Got the tires ordered! And got the other front tire mounted the other day. So disappointingly easy to seat... Haha I feel like the rears will be easy, too, judging by how the barrel looks.

So now I just need to make my way to the car one of these days to tear into the suspension and get everything ready for some new wheels! Excitingggg. I also messed with an Equip face that was bothering me the other day. Sanded it all down with a couple of different grits and got rid of the majority of little imperfections. Plus, it gives me a small idea of how a brushed finish will look (I'm digging it). That's probably all that I, personally, will mess with them, though. I'll send the faces off to Wheelflip for the rest of the work!

Sorry for no snazzy pics or significant progress! One step at a time...

[240benzo]

im pretty sure you already know this..but..i h8te you <3

[06tiburonofdoom]

Haha, I doubt I could ever sell those. Very few and far between...
And yep! Finally getting the Tiburon to a point where I can comfortably call it 'done'. OEM hood and hatch again, full repaint with lots of fender work, all new moldings, Wilwood brakes, and of course, Anhelos!

Plus, maybe I could try them out on an S2000 some day...
