I like the LXZ better too, but you know that since I clued you into them. :smiley:

Hurry and get new lower off/wider fronts. I want to see 10js in front.
If not 10s, then get way lower off.

Seeing as my car is probably not nearly as fast as yours, the desire for cornering performance with my bag set-up is just not there. Easy streets will allow me to go quite a bit lower than UAS bags would, or i would for sure be running aerosports.

Have you measured to make sure you have the clearance behind your wheel for the bag to sit below the top? I am waiting for my wheels to get here before i make any decisions unless I can source a spacer and borrow a friends wheel with the same sizing specs. UAS bags are about 6 inches diameter, coilover springs are about 4. I know there is not 2 inches of clearance with my factory 15 and the shock, and I would need that for the bag to go below the wheel. If there is with what I am going to be running then yes I will go the coilover /UAS way, otherwise the bag is going to have to be above the wheel. If thats the case, easystreet airover struts compress an inch more than UAS bags allowing me to go an inch lower.

I have done my research man, and am still doing it. To my knowledge, on a y33 from the measurements i have made, it will be damn near impossible to have a bag lower than the wheels on the front. Unless you are running a narrow super low offset wheel.

And seeing as you have done the s13 front conversion. The rear s13 coils just bolt straight up to a y33? Or do you need y33 specific coils out back? Id much rather go the coil/bag route, but want to make sure I can get it low enough.

Alright. Are the factory tophats reusable for the front? And any source for the rears? And then you just need to do the front conversion.... I need to borrow a friends wheel and make sure I will have room for a bag to go back there. This will be a lot easier on the fabrication end and perform a lot better....

Thanks for all the tips man, I am sure i will have more questions and such for ya as you get into yours and i into mine!

Its a company called BOYZ that makes the CST line
huge here in japan

S14 tophats are used in teh rear, i can source used for aorund 70 bucks
fronts, you CAN use stock, but its better for aftermarket becuase of camber adjustment


see yu gotta realize, if it rubs, or something, ill add spacers, pull the fenders more, and deal with it

I dont mind modifying my car to make stuff fit lol

Yeah, I am glad to modify to make fit man. My last car that was actually low had full boxed unibody frame in the front(A first in the US on my model of car) I have been doing fab work for quite a while. I really like the look of the stock fenders on the Q so if there is a way to not have to pull them I will do that, but if there isnt to be as low as I want, I will have pulled fenders.

Do you have a source to order adjustable y33 front tophats? I cant find any Cusco ones to save me.

Sorry to bump a old thread, but i searched right?

But, from the looks of it. Your saying all i need to do is source out JIC front tophats for the y33 and throw on s13 coilovers all around with no mods to the rear and call it a day?
