bump for your car looking hawt at the meet. I love how ur new wheels look on ur car, the pictures does it no justice, plus I noticed the fender gap looks a lot less now u got ur 18's on. But the question is....You still planning to lower ur car more?

I'm not sure, I want to go with Tein or Cobb springs which will drop the rear another 1/2 inch and the front another 1 inch, but I'm out of money until after the BBQ and Track Day.

Ouch. I am tight on money as well. I know how it is.

Would you recommend a rear subframe bolt for the GC's?

OH YEAH... Lorin (RallyTard) just put his on and that nasty recoil at the end of a turn and the harsh body roll got

It's really cool, especially if you don't have rear sway bars. The Whiteline Rear Subframe Lock Bolts are about $30 shipped from RalliTek.com

Cool. I'll have to check that out. I need to make sure it's legal for my class for auto-x.

No problem Ray, I heard Adam put his on and loves them... even with all the suspension he's got. I'm really surprised he could still notice such a huge difference. It will only take about 20 minutes to do

you should definitely clear the headlights, it would look a lot cleaner

but the car looks good, wingless or not, it looks awesome

they definately help a lot. they get rid of that sliding feel on quick hard turns. it makes the rear feel a lot more planted.
