royal gold p1's w/stance gr+
story: this is my first post of my car on this forum. i dont know if thats relevant, but i thought y'all should know. ill keep things related to the exterior of my car. i might dive into my power mods when i put in a vf34 and fmic. Two months after i got my car, the first mod i did was clearing out my headlights. it looks soooo much better without that stupid orange thing. 
notice the unpainted side skirts. it took me two years to just buy the damn things. i dont know why i didnt do it sooner. i guess i was being a cheap a$$. since i was getting painted side skirts, i got some sti air splitters at the same time. i installed these earlier this month.
while i was buying my side skirts and splitters, i had Stance GR+ coilovers and Rota royal gold p1 18x8 wrapped with 235/40 toyo proxies 4 on their way. so within a month, i bought air splitters, side skirts, coilovers, wheels, and tires. (lets just say i had to move some money around in my accounts) all because i wanted to do it all at the same time. i didnt want the ugly wheel gap look without lowering it, i didnt want to lower it on stockers, plus i had to get new tires cuz my re92 were bald. why not get some new wheels while im getting new tires? so you see, it all makes sense
the body roll difference on the stance is night and day with the stock setup. im pretty sure you should feel a dif with any new coilover. i dont know the terminologies about suspension stuff, but i do know what i like and dont like. i dont like this setup. I LOVE THEM my buddy and i took half the day today to install my new setup. i dont know the amount we dropped it. we just measured it up and tested it on how it looks. i didnt want to slam it, but i definitely wanted a good drop. pretty straight forward install except for the two bolts that hold on to each shock. my hands still hurt from trying to loosen those things. enough with the blah blah blah pics now

how about two more for good measure?
+1 for auto innovations
+1 for subydude and zoeb
+1 for speed alliance and dat
+20 for my buddy doug
this is my buddies 240 for all you drifting fans. you might notice the silvia front end, but check out the offset and stretch on those tires. i think he told me its a 225 on 9.5. he wants to put 215's but he's crazy like that. and yes he's painting it soon, after he gets the body kit on.

Thanks for all the comps guys. these things are pretty solid too. ive been hitting pot holes like crazy (not like i want to or anything) and they're still good.
he lives in socal and came up to visit his family and give me my coilovers and help me install them. he gots hook ups from speed alliance and vertex. he says his wheels are pretty rare to find over here in the states. they look freakin sweet when the sun hits them.
haha i was planning to get one, but im lookin for a rear lip right now. i would love the OEM rear lip on the 02-03's, but i need more $$$ dammit!!!!
