i gotta roll my rears cause they rub when i have my spacers on

and for future reference that is 1 coil cut off of the rear on tein s tech springs

TruTaing

How much did ya end off taking off the front? How much are ya spacing the rear out?

hcoronado

post pictures of the front once you go through the process of cutting them. how come you did not go with a smaller pad in the back instead of cutting it?

JFarhanbod

I still needa do the front either today or tomorrow if it doesnt stop raining. I'm spacing the back 5mm. I'm prolly gonna take 1.5 off the front. Maybe 2

JFarhanbod

heres a completed pic, i took off 1.5 off the front but imma do it again soon and take another .5 off

phister

I would wait a week to let the springs settle in and compress.

JFarhanbod

yeah im going to hopefully the rear doesnt go down too much more cause its perfect right now but ill just put a bigger pad back there if it does

silvermamba

nice car. =)

Peydidy

Looks SO much better now then your previous pic of it on stock suspension, clean car!

JFarhanbod

haha thanks man it was only on the stock suspension for a couple days.. too ugly to drive around like that lol

JFarhanbod

hopefully rewiring my car so i can finally put my new speakers tomorrow gonna be a pain but worth it..

im also gonna be doing something crazy with the wheels that 99% of you will hate haha still waiting on the supplies for that though

JFarhanbod

also picked up a set of these but shipping seems like it will take a while



and before the trolls/AMG police come in, no my car isnt an amg but these caps will look better for what im doing with my wheels

Peydidy

for the new speakers that you are putting in do you plan on using the stock housing? I am in the process of putting in after market speakers but don't know what to do about that housing and mounts

JFarhanbod

nah i got new housings, the front are for a toyota and the rear are for jeeps haha

Peydidy

Would you mind me asking were you got them and the sizing?

JFarhanbod

got em from crutchfield just look at the speaker that you want for your car and theyll tell you what housings youll need

Peydidy

sounds good, thanks

hcoronado

do you have pictures from a different angle?

JFarhanbod

i decided to tuck it a bit..





lol jk. im having the worst time with my stereo though getting crazy static then i grounded my rcas and now it has static when i step on the brakes.. should be getting it fixed tomorrow with a filter. if anyone needs stereo work done in the LA area, hit up simons stereo in north hollywood. one of the few shops that actually knows what they are doing and will help you out.

JFarhanbod

Also a huge shoutout to Michael Kuzni here on the forums for all his help, if you need any stereo equipment or advice/help, hit him up!

hcoronado

any pictures at eye level? trying to get an idea of the drop up front.

JFarhanbod

ill go get one for ya right now

Midnight Koop

cls wheels ftw!

JFarhanbod

here ya go, it doesnt have backseats + all my audio gear so it might be a lil lower with all that in

JFarhanbod

the horror of install my sound system is over..
my car was getting horrible interference (to the point where i had to pull the main fuse to kill power to my amps). at first i thought it was the wiring that i did for my new speakers (thought it was getting interference from the power line) but it ended up being a picofuse inside my pioneer avic d3. this has been a pain in my *** for this entire week but im so glad its finally over and it didnt cost what people were saying that it would (i soldered it for free, costs 200 for pioneer to fix)

heres a couple of pics



and the final product



i just hooked it up to the car and tested it (yes at 2:30 AM lmao idgaf) and there was no noise so im happy.

the new Polk dxi 650/6500 sound a thousand times better than the stock boses (even un-tuned)

I can't wait to finally put my car back together tomorrow haha ive been driving without doorpanels/backseat/trunklining lmao
