go240 · 07-05-2005, 09:10 PM

hey everyone, i joined a little while back but haven't posted much. I have an 89 fb with a redtop and all the usual bolt ons. it's also got a chargespeed cf bucket, mr coils, gp sports knock-off kit, interlagos bmw m3 paint, PIAA light conversion and some j-spec rims that i haven't bothered to identify. Right now i'm waiting on some gramlights 57s's that i ordered back in april. once those get here i can drop it back down and get some z brakes. anyway, thanks for looking

yea, they are temporary until my gramlights 57s's arrive

SochBAT · 07-05-2005, 10:26 PM

Gimme those rims then. =D

I like em, reminds me of SSR Sharks, just with more points.

And i suggest Q45/Altima brake upgrades. Lot cheaper, say 300shipped, and same size rotors with dual piston calipers. Its "teH SeXXXoRZZ"

On a side note, who really says that?

***FaLKoN240*** · 07-06-2005, 01:14 AM

I'll take those wheels, I think they look dope.

dvdevo · 07-06-2005, 04:55 AM

yeah those wheels are nice. are they 16s?

*driftracer* · 07-06-2005, 06:59 AM

Nice clean car

go240 · 07-06-2005, 11:20 AM

thanks guys. the rims are 15" - a local guy has first dibs, but if he can't buy them then i'll put them up here

Ritz S14 · 07-06-2005, 11:23 AM

Looks good, side skirts and wheels are iffy.

aznpoopy · 07-06-2005, 11:30 AM

i like the wheels

pretty car!

**Phlip** · 07-06-2005, 11:32 AM

I don't even mind the side skirts, and the car is clean, my only issue is the with poke-out wheels.

makav3li · 07-06-2005, 11:42 AM

car is clean

dennnnis · 07-06-2005, 09:43 PM

those wheels are nicer than the 57s keep those!

TheSnail · 07-06-2005, 09:51 PM

The only thing about the wheels I see, is how tall the tires are. Everything else is nice.

infinitexsound · 07-07-2005, 01:13 AM

wheels arent that bad............ u guys r trippin... like falling over....... cool car just needs a good driver....... and what do u know im one.... let me know when u wanna pay someone to drive it...

nizmo zilvia · 07-07-2005, 01:44 AM

Damn thats pretty sweet man! I have the same color which came stock from the factory with a purple in it. The thing is mines only coupe.

SRkouki · 07-07-2005, 03:58 AM

it can't be massively lowered as is because of the wheels

i had to raise the car to run these wheels for now. the minute the GL's go on, it will come back down

I'd call that a pretty safe bet. We have a Picture Thread for a reason. So everyone and there brother doesn't clog up the Forums with pictures of their car everytime they add a part or wash it. Besides that, welcome to Zilvia. I hope you enjoy your stay and use all the information provided to it's fullest extent.

If you're paying $300 for Q/Altima brakes, I got some wetlands to sell you too. Great building potential.

JDMs13 · 07-08-2005, 10:20 AM

^^
what are these wetlands you speak of. Ive never heard of the altima brake upgrade.

The orange car behind you looks familiar, does he come down here (chicago) for drift events? Or is that the other guy on D-Town with an orange hatch?

You should come down to some events

.

But not with the 57S cuz I ordered some too, what size/color did you get?

the one behind me is lee

i really want to get to events, but i'll be out of town for dd6 for sure.
the 57s's i ordered are 17x7.5 +22, 17x8.5 +22 4 lug, silver. when did you order yours? i've been waiting since april

KiDyNomiTe · 07-09-2005, 08:49 AM

Umm I ordered mine end of April, guess I still gotta wait till like August/September.

I ordered 17x9.5 +12 18x9.5 +12, so ours will look different

MakotoS13 · 07-09-2005, 08:52 AM

everything is good except for the monkeybutt rims. those things are horrible. i have rims that fit BETTER that i wont run cause they'd still look ghetto.

TheSparo · 07-09-2005, 08:58 AM

the hood/bumper fitment doesn't seem correct... or is it just me?

**mrmephistopheles** · 07-09-2005, 09:32 AM

I quite like the rims... it's the tires I don't like.

tew photy · 07-09-2005, 02:12 PM

you culd roll your fenders, add some pull on the back and camber in the front to fit those bad boys under the fenders. but if you're waiting on the 57s that would look weak with modded fenders, then i guess just hold out
