I absolutely love this, but in my opinion, it's not low enough for the amount of poke...

your's is definately a big inspirationOriginally posted by AMGwheelwhore View PostA tad lower and it would be perfect! Really cool infusionOriginally posted by StancedC10 View Postdig it man. all time fav car and you've done it right.Originally posted by LowPokes View PostI don't know why but I love the fitment, I know its barely tucking tire with poke but I love it.
Thanks guys, and I hear you.
The issue I'm having is that the Teins max out too fast in the rear - as well as even though I clearly want it to look as freakin good as possible, I still want to drive it as hard as freakin possible.
Anyway, here's a snap with the rears maxed out:
As you see it also adds a bit of camber in the back. I will have to adjust with some wider spacers. The fronts will have the offset adjusted as well given I don't run into clearance issues.
Besides that I got few more new parts waiting to go on such as a Greddy dp, oil cooler + reloc and new set of gauges. More importantly the front fenders and bonnet will be re-painted and I'm contemplating about sideskirts+diffuser.
The other thing is that I acquired is another set of wheels which await rebuilding:
Got myself a set of 17" VS-XX. Had to grab 'em before someone else would..
This however is putting me in a fairly difficult spot to decide. I was gonna widen them with 5" lips to 17x11 with 255/40's or step lip them up to 18" but only 10.5J with 255/35's. But I still have the BBS that I wanna widen to 11.5J with 245/45's and I might not be able to afford everything this year with all the other stuff planned including my vacation to .jp early spring.
Apart from that my brother and I just finished piecing together his FD and it is in dire need of 3-piece wheels:
It's currently on winter tires and obviously still needs plenty of adjustment. So he might end up taking the VS-XX and I stick to my BBS. Don't worry, my brother is well aware that this ugly sticker has to go.
Come spring and I'll have more updates.Last edited by h3llk1t3; 01-04-2014, 06:00 AM.Offset ain't everything - http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/sh...n-t-everything

wow, I can't even remember exactly, there is plenty sellers for lips and such over here.
I think the guy that helped me out was from www.enha.eu. But there is also pages like www.felgenfuchs.de. However I had to contact them because I think none of these pages list 4.5 inch lips for 16" wheels. Took a few weeks as well till they arrived because they had to make them first.Offset ain't everything - http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/sh...n-t-everything

The r32... my absolute favourite skyline!
Yours is absolutely spot on in my opinion!! Maybe a 17 inch wheel would be a better fit, but the 16 suit it well 2
And that rx7 of your brother is freakin awesome!! JDM to the bone
Also like to mention that I am super jealous about the fact u live around the corner of the allmighty Nurburgring... Thats just not fair :p
