reason why its parked?? lol
why is it growing on me |
i dig the wheels. just not the 2 tone
|
Ehh, this must be before work, I don't think the owner would try to drive with shoulder like that. As far as specs, no one has really gone all out when it comes to stretch + width + low offset. I like to keep a decent sized tire on because I can't stand not being able to drive a sports car fast, which is largely why I never went that route. Mike from Vegas' setup is sick but I know there's room for more. Hopefully this guy can make it work!
|
I dont even remember where I got that picture from or what the specs were.
drunk posting ftl lol |

does anyone having any problem with there transmission being to low cuz my shit hits a lot......
|
My only problems are the rear exhaust piping, diff and the front lip and the little metal plates that hang below the front wheels area. Oh and the midpipe bolt connecting to the header, that always likes to grab a bump (pretty sure it's cracked now).

Ouch, full lock to the right, and fucked up the passenger side fender/or vice versa? When drifting I'd imagine the weight may be tossed over to that side - luckily with grip, the weight stays off of the danger side of the front fenders.
middle and all the little creases around it. http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5021/...39a49022_z.jpg BTW found out wtf was bottoming out back there, check this out, talk about shitty engineering, I haven't received a calls from D2 yet but supposedly they are getting it worked out.. told em an easy fix would be to send me 8k springs but you know, what does John Smith know about his own setup. http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5179/...27719d64_z.jpg |
I hate to say you get what you pay for... but even for bottom end coils they shouldnt do that :(

Wow, so the coil was rubbing on what looks like a control arm? Sorry I didn't reply back to your question earlier, I haven't experienced such issues. As far as the fender goes, that doesn't look too bad... Did you already have them pulled out before?
Reminds me of this -> Attachment 247379 |
Naw its not rubbing on the control arm, the springs are too soft and the coils are actually bottoming out on each other.
Those fenders though are hidious lol, my last car had pulled fenders similar to that but that is just too functional. |
Do you know the spring rate of the springs that are on there now? Just curious what they used...
|
RX8's have traditionally used pretty soft spring rates, are you sure full compression is the reason? If so, you sure your dampers are all in good functioning condition? Hope you get things sorted out soon!

From hawaiiiiiii!!!!!!! Here is my BB with ame cx 19x9.5 F +22 19x10r +28 I believe http://http://gallery.me.com/turkhoi...13008811190001

|
^ :lol:
|
smh...
|
tbk that made my day :D:
|
Holy shit TBK!
But yeah pretty clear that the coils are smashing on each other. Dampening is fine rx8's have an awkwardly short spring. Im running 8 & 6k's |
|
that is some major lip
|
Thanks lol I was tryna upload the pics from an iPad
|
haha no problem, looking good :icon_tup:

I'll even out Ross's props by saying.........nice lip but the wheels are how do I say it....not really styled for a car like the 8. Nice job though
|
i love it a vip 8 :D the shinka color already makes it better
|
Unless he's going for a VIP look... :dunno:
|
|
Lol thanks for the opinions, I had to really look and look if it looks nice but i like it. As for VIP I'm totally not going that route, I have a BNR turbo with a lot of extras so I take Yolanda up the mountain and we do the nasty :D
