SiLVeRE8 08-05-2006, 04:58 AM i have to do a fender roll before i drop it
NgoRX8 08-05-2006, 04:59 AM i went 2 weeks before i had my fenders shaved. slight rub here and there, just don't have people sit in your back seats. lol
SiLVeRE8 08-05-2006, 05:02 AM yea i tried that atfirst and it rubbed alittle when i made a turn so the backseats are forbidden! haha

Im_DANomite 08-06-2006, 09:33 AM perfect offset...good job! that's the way to do it.

NgoRX8 08-06-2006, 02:23 PM lol, i'd be crazy scared to see a bat go near my car.
Moostafa29 08-06-2006, 02:55 PM Whatever works. Me and IzzI used shoe strings as spring compressors once upon a time.
Easy_E1 08-06-2006, 03:40 PM Whatever works. Me and IzzI used shoe strings as spring compressors once upon a time.
Now thats living on the edge!
rx8spiritR 08-06-2006, 06:56 PM i don't know anyone from Wash i'm 22 already LOL
I live on 32nd and Geary, so if i go out or go home around lunch or after school, you'll see me. but too bad I'm planning to either sell the car or part it out, so it'll probly be gone or stock when school start :(

sorry to hear that... well the good thing is that atleast you dont park your car outside especially while living infront of a school. oooh and how come you never showed up at any meet?
SiLVeRE8 08-06-2006, 08:26 PM thanks to all of you that gave me advice and dropped a comment. i know i should DROP THAT SHIT like what some of you suggested! LOL and that would probably be my next mod.
Mugatu 08-06-2006, 08:27 PM Mugatu approves.
rx8spiritR 08-06-2006, 10:06 PM how come you never showed up at any meet?
it's either I have to work or I don't know there's a meet. Or it's too far and don't have the time for it. back in the days I always shows up with my FD in rx7club but now life is work work and work. I'll try my best next time.

IZoomZoomI 08-07-2006, 12:13 AM Whatever works. Me and IzzI used shoe strings as spring compressors once upon a time.
yea, i remember that night or morning... went to work 1hr later only to fall asleep on a bunch of office chairs alligned together.
anyways back on topic. Whats next?
rx8spiritR 08-07-2006, 03:30 AM he said he'll drop it but i think he'll have to roll his fenders.
hey when are you going to do it cuz i want to roll my too.
btw IZoomZoomI does the helix burn your ms rear? I really want to know and is it really loud?
SiLVeRE8 08-07-2006, 05:56 AM he said he'll drop it but i think he'll have to roll his fenders.

im thinking about rolling my fenders in like a week or two and ill let you know so maybe we can have it done together for a better deal. :evil_laug
rx8spiritR 08-07-2006, 05:21 PM what tires you running now?
I'm running 245/35 front and 275/30 rear
I'm pretty sure it'll rub if I don't roll it
SiLVeRE8 08-07-2006, 06:06 PM im running 245/40 with +30 offset front and 275/35 with +34 offset rear

nah doesn't burn, not super loud. When I had the rp supercat on omg, sound like a full blown GT car, but here's a clip, http://youtube.com/watch?v=yAm_JovBFRw.
i've heard a lot of different setups and this is the best sounding exhaust so far.
Razz1 08-08-2006, 12:50 AM Should have gone with a bigger off set like 42 or 45mm.
You could have done more research. I was expeting to see anothe silver, but what a surprise!
Looks nice.
Can we see it at Seven Stock?
SiLVeRE8 08-08-2006, 04:50 AM ill try my best to make it to seven stock :)
