Nah, you definitely shouldn't need it (if you are running 165s). When I had my 15x8" +0 Diamonds on the front of mine, I was on the factory arms and they fit PERFECTLY with just a mild roll of the front fenders.

If you get rid of the adjustable arms, you'll definitely have more room. I could literally lay the front fenders on the edge of the wheel and still have suspension travel with the stock arms. Significantly more clearance, for sure.

i think im gonna try it

I am having the same problem. I might not have needed the camber kit in front. They are 15x8.5 with a +13 offset or somewhere close. What do u think

I can dig it

Not a fan of the giant windshield sticker (why does everyone do this shit?) or the rear spoiler. Other then that it looks great dude. Stance is on point

I like the windshield. It fits my personality... Haha an the wing is staying. Hard to capture in photographs but it flows well with the style of the car.

Yeah, the front is definitely the tricky part. With stock arms, as long as you cut/raise the strut towers, you're good to go. But with aftermarket arms, you start running into problems, since as you add camber, it pitches the arm up even higher.

The first thing I tried (after making as much clearance as humanly possible) was fabricating a spacer to put between the control arm-to-strut tower mounting point, in hopes of barely making extra clearance for the arm to come up. It did a small amount of good, but the arms are STILL bottomed out on the towers, and the knuckle is completely pressed against the spring due to the camber+ride height combo. So there is literally no downwards suspension travel whatsoever.
It might sound like a good thing, but trust me...it's not. It's the reason the car has only been driven twice in the last year.

The only sure-fire solution is to shorten the knuckle itself (the part that goes from the hub to the upper ball joint). Depending on where you cut it, you can get more camber from it, more suspension travel from it, or both. I need about a degree more negative camber (it's about -7 or 7.5 now) and A LOT more suspension travel, so that's really the only solution for me. Just be positive that it gets welded together as strongly as possible if you do it! It's a pretty vital part to be cutting up and putting back together. Haha

Another positive is that it'll put the control arm back at a much more desirable angle, and you won't have to max out your camber adjustment (if you needed to in the first place).

Sorry for the TL;DR post! Haha Hopefully it made some sense.

Heres a quick driveway shot with the oem bumper. the car was super dirty in this pic and it doesnt have the oem lip yet.

I like this a lot more then the other bumper. The other one looks "off" for some reason

[06tiburonofdoom]

Thanks man. Im having problems with my front. the rear i have plenty of suspension travel.

The front... not so much. Im sure you had the same problem. My upper control arm is resting on my shock tower and i cut holes in the shock towers as well. I have some ideas on what to do but was curious to see what you did?

Some new pictures i took the other day. My photography skills arent the best. Let me know what you think.

[Joshmsartin]

Either way it looks good. I'd ride shotgun.

ha thanks man! Waiting on a daily driver to pop up then im gonna go all out on this thing.

Im building a fully built b16 for it. and im collected a turbo kit over the years

Weisco 81mm low comp Pistons and eagle rods. Arp Head studs rod bolts main bolts. Supertech block gaurd. Cometic head gasket. Gsr head. New valves an valve guides Skunk2 intake manifold blox 68mm throttle body. Skunk2 cam gears.

Garrett 57mm turbo. Rfl turbo xs blow off valve. Cx racing intercooler kit. (welded piping. fuck couplers) tial 38mm wastegate with 14psi spring. 3" downpipe open dump tube lovefab ram horn turbo manifold. precision 900cc injectors aem fuel rail.

shooting for 400 reliable hp

and the engine bay I will shave and tuck and brake line tuck of course

Thanks boss. your wagon is dope



Thanks for the advice. in my opinion that bumper doesnt look ricy at all. It is basically a 99-00 si bumper on an Eg. would look super nice with an intercooler

Hmmm that might work. I also want to suggest it might please the eye more if you painted that lower part of it black.
