we're still trying to sort out the cars at the moment. The wife actually wants a CRZ. She loved the Spoon one we saw at TypeOne and has been wanting one ever since. But i've been looking for a TL or TSX. We'll see what happens. I may end up just driving the hatch more.


thanks =)

I took a CRZ for a test drive, was very disappointed, it was very hard to see blind spots to change lanes, and even for a new car the power just didn't seem to be there, hopefully they revise the rear window and add some spunk, other than that very cool interior and body styling.

I know the power isn't there in them, its a tiny engine just like the crx back in the day. The blind spot issue is like that in the 8th gens too. All these slanted small windows nowadays is a little retarded. Oh well....
lovin the car clean as hell
thanks

lol, I like how you consider this to be a slow build even though it's moving faster than 99% of the other builds on this site.

Hi Childs,

Loving the car! Awesome stance!

I have an EK as well. Purchased a set of the Enkei J-speeds 15x8 25+ a while back and haven't put them on yet.
Just a question, did you have to roll your guards or do anything to the body to get that stance??

Thanks,
Vince

reminds me of the murano and FX35's with the small rear window... same with the x6, I never understood the logic in less visibility... I guess Form>Function at its best :lol:

Yes i did. They sit a bit wide, some some fender rolling is needed at a minimum. How much you need to roll is going to depend on your tire size and how low you drop the car. I have a meaty tire and i pulled a little bit extra to give me better clearance to corner aggressively without rubbing.

:cool: I guess i follow too many "baller builds" from other forums so i feel like mine is creeping along.
