My Y34 needs low

Hey Guys,
Names Dan, (dtdm // danthedesignman)
I crossed over from **sigh** hoodrat turbo hondas last winter after looking 6 months for an 03/04 M45.

I am a bartender by night, however during the day I try to do new things with my plotters and vinyl.

03 M45 Black/Black

I have been rocking the factory fx 20s until I figure out what I really want.
I have springs that might go on tomorrow... would eventually turn towards air.

I am not the best photographer and actually only have an iphone to take pics with but I will get some better pics in the upcoming months.

Here is how I spend most my free time.

very nice ride. Looks good on the FX20s

You will find that springs don't drop the M45/F50 very much so you might want to cut for a better drop. A couple of members have cut either one coil on the front and another has done 1 front and 1 rear. My F50 is on Junction Produce springs and I am going to cut 2 on the front and 1 on the rear to get rid of the wheel gap.

Good luck!

I have a set of teins.. not to thrilled on running them. Probably will chop them a bit, if the rides rough, I'll just throw it back on factory until I figure out whats going on.

Congrats on the M, they're nice cars. I got mine 6 months ago after 6 years with a Y33 Q. I got Tein's right away when I got the M and cut a good 1-2 coils. Actually, the rear is still on the cut Tein's. I have custom coilovers in front, ride is very good, a little stiff but great on freeway. If you put the springs on and cut 1 coil, I think you'll be surprised how good it still rides and will look nice on the FX 20's. At least that will hold you over till you go air or coilovers.

There's a lot of good info on here for both air and coilovers. Myself and (thanks to) Eyedea both have the custom coilover setup, and a number of guys are on air.
