[nzstance]

Cheers mate I will be test fitting them properly tonight so heres hoping for them to be fitted by the end of this week. So. Sick. Of. Waiting!

[TurboFox]

You have good taste, can't wait to see those works fitted

[nzstance]

Just to bump things up. I finallllllllllllllly got my tyres on, rear coilovers in so far and fronts in tonight to test fit the wheels to find out how much i need to pull the guards.

Just to keep up to date image wise, these are the wheels from last week :P



Om nom nom.

Thanks for the info, and it's true that it helps clean the roads I'm sure.
Now let's see some tezza updates!

[Tomahawk]

I'm liking the front end, and those Equips are beautiful!
I'll admit, the big lip is looking better IMO than the previous spoiler.
In to see how it's going to look on those wheels, wide stance for sure.

hey man randome arse question, but what do u mean by 'horey'? iv seen another kiwi use it on another forum

Haha a loose term for poorly executed i guess. I meant i did it horey styles as in it could have been done a whole lot better.

I love me some Altezzas (the cars not the shitty ricer knock off lights). I like where this is going.

Cheers mate, you and me both. In our country we have a good amount of Altezzas (usually the 1GFE model) but are like the comment above...horey high offset wheels, lowering springs that dont actually lower, chromies...the lot haha.

For the guy above that asked about my S15. Here is an old pic before i lowered it and put work into it. The S15 infront of mine was an operation gone wrong. 180sx front, s15 rear. The front guards went ping when we were entering a track and he was on the wrong end of a pot hole.

You an get a low certification, wth ??? How do you get one and what are the requirements?

Yep, you need a cert if you wish to go below 100mm OR if you have coilovers, bags etc etc as you can go to 100mm on springs and struts but any lower or any better and you have to pay between $300-$400 for certification BUT you can also do things at the same time and get one cert for all. For example you could do a 2jz manual swap into an Altezza, put coilovers in and other things like that then cert it at the same time under one low volume certification.

Most of us dont really mind as it keeps the crap off of our roads with cut springs. Cut springs are fine in my books for cruisers but over here we have no power restrictions on cars. For example at the age of 15 you can own a R32 GTS-T Skyline for $3000 if you want. So there are a lot of drift hacks that shouldn't be on the road and with these restrictions we dont get placed in the same boat and chased by the fuzz

I prefer these car without a spoiler but the Equips make up for the ducktail

Can't wait to see how the wheels will look on the car !

You and me both! But i got the Area51 ducktail (very rare) for a ridiculously low price so it took over the option of getting the holes from the spoiler sealed and painted.

I love equips.

You sir have my attention, and pics of the s15?

Good man. Ill find some images of the s15 for you. Sadly it was the non turbo model... i had an SR20DET sitting in my shed ready to go into it.
