Cool - (suteki) :thumbsup:


The only thing I would say about this car is I am not feeling that chrome molding around the tail lights, kinda looks like pepboys auto trim for doors..and I am not feeling the smoked out tails r painted tail lights..Also if you ever get a chance it would look nice if you got the lips polished to a mirror finish..I think that would really set of your dark Green color.

I thought about it since I have some curb damage due to tires popping on me. I perfer the DIamond cut finish. when the wheels are clean and waxed, there is nothing like it. Plus I feel that everyone have chrome lips, thats what makes mine stand out even more. As far as the tails, they are here to stay, they were professionaly tinted and look nice in person. The chrome around them will come off when I change my spoiler.

F50's don't use upper control arms up front..

All he needs are some camber plates to adjust the camber. Although i'm not sure how/if that would work with your particular air set up. but i'm sure you could figure it out w/o too much trouble.

Yah, my bad, it was all G50 stuff from Nagisa Auto. Haha, I don't know why I had that stuck in my head. They cover nearly everything BUT the F50? Weird, maybe that's why I had thought that.

[QUOTE=jzz30tt;62190]F50's don't use upper control arms up front.. 

All he needs are some camber plates to adjust the camber. Although i'm not sure  how/if that would work with your particular air set up. but i'm sure you could figure it out w/o too much trouble.[/QUOTE]
Yah, my bad, it was all G50 stuff from Nagisa Auto.  Haha, I don't know why I had that stuck in my head.  They cover nearly everything BUT the F50?  Weird, maybe that's why I had thought that.

correct. we were lookin at the lowers for potential. the problem w/ cambering the front is it will stay cambered, unlike the rear that levels out at ride height. This big of a car w/ a v8 in it would ride like complete ****tt having camber all the time up front, especially w/ the wheel/tire setup on it.

The car looks great, and the install look great too.

However, You're wrong on the car riding like **** with a few degrees of camber. I ran my g50 at -5 up front at all times and it rode fine.

That's the only problem i have with it, is that the front looks rather undrivable at a lowered state.

there was a comment about this making Japanese status..and I have to agree. THis ride is very unique in its own way..The only thing I have to say about this is like I said befor,,you have to find some way to get some - camber in the front..Then I think you will be really JAPANESE STATUS..:drool:

NOt knockin your ride bro at all because this shiat is dope as F^&$,,I just am a bid fan on having things match up..if theres camber in the rear, there should be in the front,,if there is none in the front there should be none in the rear..THis way it does not call out to the fact that your front pokes out more than your rear...

you have a panel covering everything but the valves so theres no wires to see. also, all the other wires that u have loomed, are hidden in this Q. not to mention, the whole setup is always covered. thats enough about wires thanks.

Damn that looks awesome... Isnt there anyway to put camber on it like you do with the Y32/33s? i.e. with camber tops on the struts to reposition the top of the strut and add camber?

I third the notion of seeing it in motion though ;)

its the lowest because of clearance, but it wouldnt go too much lower anyways. up front is the stock strut w/ the bag, the rear is stock strut as well but we used a different type of UAS bag and just replaced the spring w/ the bag as the spring is separate from the shock in the rear. The "active suspension" still works as well. Also,we were going for sitting the fender on the rim, not crazy slammed out on this one...even though the exhaust is about a half inch from the ground when down anyways haha.

I think once the car has aero it'll also change the overall low look of it. The stock struts are what's limiting it.

Any plans in the future running a shorter strut? I'm guessing the stock strut will pretty much be done in a couple of months.

only gripe... any way to get more negative camber up front presently?
or is this just bags and no adj arms?

also why is the car on those cement blocks?
doing some maintenance and final checks or sumin?

the rear fitment is very nice, lip never touches the body?
or does the camber allow it to clear every time?
i always fear hitting the lip on the body when u put fender on lip

fuckin bad ass
