so those are work euroline n's from grant in 19x9.5 ET8 / 19x10 ET-11, with insurance coilovers from van of onetongarage and some s13/14 rear multilink pieces from peak performance.

also, does anyone know of any good alignment shops in irvine/oc?

thanks for looking!

nice stance not really feelin the black centers on the silver car but fitment looks nice. nice sus set up you got going.

VERY NICE!

damn, that stance is on point.  now buff those headlights and ur golden.

Nice.  I like that trunk

lookin good mate, pretty angry camber up back.
 
hows the product quality and ride quality on the Insurance coilovers btw? i am looking to get some in a few weeks for my 2GS...

:biggthumpup:

nice stance...  i love my insurance coils... haha..

How that rear stance is crazy!!!
 
You beat me to it! I was curious how black would look on our color, don't know if I'm really feelin it but it does give off a sorta gangster appeal! :biggthumpup:

Sweet! Now ur car is just waiting for a kit to set it off man...

I agree but his model Q came with the bottom's color matched to the car so hes ok for now even if he leaves it how it is.  Those coilovers are not cheap, they cost as much as some peoples air setups.  Props :biggthumpup:

I'm a sucker for fender touching lips like cheezy80's Q but in this instance, the car's ride height is kinda high judging from the pix, especially the rear. So I thought a kit will bring it down abit... and complete the look.

wow, thanks for all the positive comments! :)

i actually purchased the wheels thinking i could perhaps have them refinished in chrome or something, but i decided to keep them as is because i'm broke.  :(

the insurance coils are really nice in build quality.  they're a bit bouncy, but i'm sure it's because i have them set incorrectly.  i'll be taking it to a race alignment shop to have them help me set everything up correctly.

and yes, i'll be picking up some 2000 grit and some of that meguiar's polish to buff out the headlights.

again, thanks for all the support!

how long do your tires last??

:pat: he just put these on ... check back in a couple of months

[QUOTE=Bippu PxrLex;160528]:pat: he just put these on ... check back in a couple of months[/QUOTE]

more like . . weeks hahaha . . .

Love the stance on your car, and all you need now as mentioned before is  a good buffer on the headlights and you're golden.

Damn that looks gangster. I love the stance. You're around UCI right? PM me and let's meet up sometime. I can help you with those headlights too.

[QUOTE=rolloverboi;160531]more like . . weeks hahaha . . .[/QUOTE]

I run close to the same camber and replaced at 8k miles and never got a chance the flip the tires to wear the other side of them.  You can easily get mileage with camber if the rest of your alignment is on point.

looks good i always wondered what the y33 would look like with those eurolines. can anyone photochopped it for a polish look for me?

Says enough. Damn thats sick. 
:biggthumpup:

nice stance! i like yours rims, theyd look better in chrome as you mentioned.

sweet stance! I wish I could afford coilovers. The Teins aren't doin it for me :(

nice n clean ride u have there...crazy camber..i think u should change tire often hehe...

IMO, it looks kinda weird from the back being so high with so much camber. Can you go lower, or do you have plans for a kit?

[QUOTE=NYC03Alti;160658]IMO, it looks kinda weird from the back being so high with so much camber. Can you go lower, or do you have plans for a kit?[/QUOTE]

i think i can go lower, but not enough to make a real difference.  i need to pull the fender a bit more if i do.  i'll probably just roll like this for a while, then decide what more i want to do.

actually, i think i have audio plans next, so we'll have to see about that kit =P

IMO I don't think he's that high! He's about the same as me! 
Only difference is mine is on 20s VS his 19s and I think my rear bumper (kit) sits lower than stock 
also the exhaust.....
:shrug:

^^Yea, but he has way more camber than you do.

There should be some sort of law that your camber should be inversely proportional to ride height lol...

i  think the camber looks killer!!!!!

its hard to make this forum happy, any less camber would be "too less", sometimes ya can't win for losing!!!haha
the car looks awesome, the color on the wheels go great with the car.

Looking real good bruh nicely done so far...

the alignment tech at autobacs muttered "i hate working on your car" to me today as he was working on it :)

he got some more negative camber from the front, so i'll be adding 10mm spacers (i hope that won't be too much -- haven't busted out the tape measure yet).  

for those who want to know, the rear is right about -6* camber, on the peak performance rucas (but without the locknuts removed or otherwise modified).

Looks really good.

fitment is great, just dont like the black face wheels.

that ass picture is hot

Oh snaps!! We're a block away from each other... I live by Albertsons too...  To top it off I also have a special anniversary model and same color but still completely stock:sad: My buddy actually lives houses away from you, he had the lexus IS  with a nice stance......

Your car looks good but most cameras don't give black faced wheels justice... I bet it really stands out in person!!

nice!, black rims ftmfw!

word of advice to all those maxing camber: get your alignment done right away!.  i went through a brand new set of tires in 3 weeks cuz my toe was off. im running -7 degrees in the rear and so far so good

3 weeks???  JESUS do you slide around every corner or drive at 95 down the freeway?  hahaha.  I went 2 months at -8 in the back with horrible toe and maybe only went through 30-40% of tread life.

my tow was fucked plus i went on a G cruise and they were breaking 100 i was trying to keep up. i had to learn the hard way, never doing that again

Hahaha, werd man.  Thats still crazy, ida been PISSED though as I am sure you were.  You ever get the fronts down any further?

no, ive been working on my accord wagon the past few months, august show is coming up and the only thing im concerned is getting the car lower. so i will be purchasing camber plates for the front sometime soon.  im curious to see how low the back can go seeing as my coilover perches are cranked all the way up.  dont want my car sagging in the back though so ill wait till the front is lower

somehow wheel does'nt get out of style, still love 'em!

Looks sick as hell I like the ass end.

that stance is on point...!!!
