phister

FrankW

nice

a3i

Whoa, thats going to look hot

TruTaing

Looks good! must lower if you're gonna do ccws justice!

phister

Lol I didn't let the suspension set when I took the pics. It sits a lot lower.

TruTaing

purrfeecccttt cant wait to see it all wrapped up! (figured you were lower in all your pix)

Curious: how much did you think you pull the fenders out from the stock?

phister

shoot I dunno how much I pulled it since I did it once before. But I did at least a good maybe 7-10mm more. I basically dont have the the flat part anymore on the fenders its all arched.

So I got the rear dialed in to my liking. I got bored and put some negative camber on and allowed me to keep the 5mm spacers in the rear so now the rear is at +15 offset now! so i'm going to be running +15 all around now. heres some pics of how the rear ended up.







my dirty car

TruTaing

oohhh looks perfect back there - its dirty in a good way!

phister

hahaha thank tru... I have to lower the front now, but I'll do that all once the tires come in so I can see how it looks before I adjust. hopefully the fluted and eccentric bolts come in soon too.

Wow ! Congrats. Those are hot. My pants just got shorter. Strong strong work, Phister !

phister

Thanks man! So I got to change my UPS delivery to will call so I could pick the front tires up in the morning. Then it well be done.

a3i

Where did you order the fluted and eccentric bolts from?

phister

rmeuropen.com

I was actually messing with the struts while lowering it more and decided to loosen the bolt where the eccentric bolts are going, the bolt that holds the strut to the hub and found out I can mess with my camber without the eccentric bolts!!! So all you need to do is loosen the 2 bolts that hold the bottom of the strut to the hub and the top bolt that hold the strut as well to the hub. Dont remove the bolts just loosen them some. With them loose you can actually push the upper part of the hub/rotor back and forth, maybe its just my coilovers design, I'll look at my OEM ones and see if it has designed the same way. But with that I can adjust my camber so i just pushed them all the way till the bolt stopped and tightened the bolt down, then tightened the other two down. So now my fronts fit perfectly now and I can lower it even more.

phister

AND BOMB GOES THE DYNAMITE!

Going to lower the front even more now since I got my front camber going. Thought dropping it 1/2" would do the job but it didnt so gonna drop it another 1/2" it and should look even with the rear.

phister

Thanks frank

nice! i think i've checked your thread as often as i checked my email waitin for pics. looks sick... my car sits pretty similar to yours in the picture. i've been wanting to lower my front, but need to get something to protect my lip from scraping. maybe i'll get one of those EZ lip garage liners too

phister

Just get it at Lowes think I listed the parts a few pages back.

phister

I plan on shoveling gravel once I drop the front more haha

glocati

Hot damn ! Looks great. Stanced indeed. Pokin'

FrankW

i actually raised my car up over the wknd. lol

TruTaing

Phister - you are the man! CCWs and going to all new lows w/ those COs Great work!

phister

Lol it just feels too weird riding in stock cars I need to be close to the ground. Even my gfs is250 feels high

phister

Thanks tru, always have to push the boundaries right?! Got some other exterior and interior mods up my sleeve. Its going to be a fun summer.
