Thanks rxAMZ, I'm not particularly happy with how much drop is available with the GReddy coilovers. The rears are pretty much maxxed out and the fronts still some room but its enough to get into trouble over speed humps. At least the ride is about spot on. Same goes for your car, beauty mate, you're in Sydney right? Cruise? hehe. I want that R-Magic style boot lip, it actually looks better than the euro-JDM boot lip (which was my pre-love).

By the looks of it, your wheels are staggered 8 front and 9 rear?

Yeap, the light got owned. Hope its not too hard to fix.

I'm not sure if he's from my area. But from pics, its the hottest local rx7 I've seen by far. Do you know what wheels he's replacing them with?

Nice pics and a great looking car, what's the spec on the wheels? Seems to go well with the MS kit.

Lovin' all the BB's

I was going to drop my car another 1/4" up front and a 1/2" in the rear today but thought it would be a good idea to check the clearance before doing anything. Good thing too because that is about 1.5" going in backwards.

JJWash-
Congrats on the new 8...looks good. Tinting the windows will increase the good looks by far. What % tint did you go with?

I lived in Newport News a couple of yrs ago, and had the windows of my G35 tinted at 'Just Tint' in Hampton. The guy was just a one-man shop, but did an incredible job. Too bad there's no one like that where I'm at now in Cali.
