Hey everybody,
I decided to start fresh with a whole new account and a new build thread. Last car was a 1990 Z32, the "banana" build. I had a build thread and was making steady progress, but after I reached 100% max low without notching the frame I took a trip to seattle for a shoot and ruined my oil pan. Here are a few photos from this previous summer.
After replacing the pan I decided it was time to sell and start new. I had always wanted an LS400 and to do a VIP style build and after asking some friends if there were any LS400's for sale I finally found one.
Picked up this 91 LS400 on BC ultra-low coils 18/12k springrates for 2900. It needs a couple of trim pieces on the outside and for one bottom trim square to be painted, but otherwise no dents/ straight body. Previous owner had a very aggressive set of meisters on there, 18x9.5 -1 18x11 -8 so the fenders have already been cut and pulled. Car came aligned with -7 or so degress of camber out back on modified Factory arms and wheels were needed immediately.
Picked up a set of style 95's with 32mm adapters all around, after adapters effective sizing is 19x9/10 -8, a bit aggressive in the front, but I will make it work.
I've been really busy lately, just moved into a new place so I haven't had much time to tinker with anything. Not to mention my roommates C6 Z06 is in the garage until he gets back from SEMA so I don't have a dry place to work on the car. Expect frequent updates when he gets back, first order of business is tucking the rear and getting the fronts perfectly flush. Long term plans are to wrap the car and get a full kit. But for now I'll be ordering a DC2 Integra front lip and just adjusting the ride height.
Here's a booty shot, showing off that camber.
