wow those brides are insane

 

[qwikxr]

Thanks.. Now that I have them, I haven't fully determined if I will keep them or not..
Being 5'10", 220.. my ass is a little wide for Bride
I fit in them okay, just with the time I spend in the car (20-25 hrs/wk), I'm not sure if I'll be able to handle my balls being squished for that long

 

[Blazed]

[qwikxr]

What is Costco?.....i might have to buy some of this "stuff"

There's a store in Jacksonville off JTB (aka John Turner Bulter Blvd.) 95 North to JTB. I think you can get a one day membership...

BTW awesome project and plans!

 

[stealthy]

those seats are gonna make your car look fast

 

[qwikxr]

who cares if it looks fast.. Anything has to be better than the bench-seat feeling POS buckets in there now..

 

[Jezek]

those rims ate t3h hotness....don't drop it tho...........SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM IT!

 

[mienboiracer209]

mmmmmmmmmmmmm Bride!!!...drop it like its hawt...i really like the clean engine bay...

edit: thought u needed a slam...so i did a quicky on it...

 

[qwikxr]

Thats a pretty sweet p'chop.. especially since the original pic was blurry and kinda hard to see, anyway

But IMHO, it'll get a mild drop. A slammed suspension is impractical and kills the suspension geometry.. Not to mention a little too firm of a ride for a daily commuter

At most, I'll probably drop it like 40mm in front, and 60mm in the rear..

Ok, dilemma..

I've sold the BBS 2pc wheels.. Now my choices, thusfar, are either Konig Heliums 15" or Slipstream 15s..
My dilemma is color.. Im thinking Bronze or black, leaning more toward Bronze.
Whatcha think?

 

[ShinsenTuner]

you sold BBS' and are wanting Heliums or Slips? Come on man, should've left the BBS' on there...they looked hot

 

[qwikxr]

heh.. yah, but the offset was all wrong (et33).. and lowering it on them would've been out of the question..
I just like the Heliums as they are 10.5 lbs

 

[ShinsenTuner]

You know what would look hot? These . . .

Rota Track R's w/ Yokohama AVS'

 

[qwikxr]

I thought about those, too, but with the polished lip, makes them look smaller, IMO..

 

[ShinsenTuner]

Nothing 16's, 45 Series tire, and a nice drop can't fix

 

[qwikxr]

the 15s are 12lbs, the 16s are 15lbs, in the ROTAs..
The Konig Helium 15s are 10.5 lbs, and cant find them in 16"..

you think black or bronze on my red hatch?

 

[ShinsenTuner]

Bronze all the way

 

[qwikxr]

Im thinking bronze, as well.. just wonder how it will all look with CF hood and other bits..

babietuan323 - thanks!
