    I should also add that I have a set of the classic Type A style sideskirts that I'll put on once I build a bracket for them!

    So, I'll be riding like this for awhile now. I'll lower the front once I can do something about my CAT, its like an inch off the ground. ANDDDDDD my whole plan for this build was to go to Long Beach and be in WekFest this year...however, lucky me didn't get their car finished in time of the car registration...so it looks like I'll be going down there but not be in the show. Oh well I guess, always next year. As for now, I have a couple more plans for the car that you guys will see later on

    So, sorry I've been holding back the updates but here we go..

    Finished the wood floor in my trunk (spaces left on the sides for speaker boxes).

    Then took a visit to Elite Automotive Finishes (rolling fenders) and saw some badass drifting machines as well as the KSport drift car that they were finishing up for FD Long Beach.

    Then installed the coil overs. I maxed them out, but that didn't last too long. EVERYTHING was fuckin' up. So I raised them up and plan on lowering it a tad more today and adjusting the rear camber. I need some tuckage badddd.

    So like I said, It needs more low and some camber. But its finally low...

    No, they're here, but I'm a student so I have time only on the weekends. I'm also waiting for a few other parts

    Planned on it once I can afford a respray.

    Still... hope you make it look good. EM1's are a quirky car and are hard to look right.
    Well, my anxiety got the best of me with the wheels haha. And I don't mind the ridiculousness, but I do agree with making them look good, so we'll just wait and see

    Have fun with it.
    I know this chasis like the back of my hand.
    Those F&F's will get bouncy in the rear after several months I'd highly recommend getting stiffer springs down the road.
    Also to even remotely get the front to look right you will need..
    -Inverted tie-rod ends
    -Uni-Body notch for the axle because it will forever smack against it once you get under 22 inches fender to ground.

    I agree with PAT, id loose the boot / trunk spoiler but keep the rear windscreen / roof visor. will look pretty sweet once your lower it.
