so guys,I went out and took a couple of pics of the "stance" after I switched the springs around and threw the illuminas on.




my friends love it,I'm still not satisfied with the stance though. The back is perfect,but I expected my front to be a good bit lower. Who knows,maybe its the weaksauce oem wheels. I dont wanna cut or due anything not intented to be done by ground control itself so Im not even up for those suggestions I might just get some function n forms instead..

Haha, touche'! Thanks for the compliment though! Maybe I should have the red lip on my Group N's refinished in pink to match
And I don't know why anyone would say my paint is rough?! :


Edit: Althought the claybarring did work wonders:

Im in the process of rebuilding my sol, right now it sits with a stock b16/type R trans. with some bolt ons, it has about 140,000 miles on it and Im going to replace it. Im considering two full swaps right now and can afford either one, B16B or B18c(JDM GSR). I dont plan on going turbo and would like to get involved in autocross. No matter what Im pulling the B16, and this is the perfect time for me to replace everything, I would like to know everyones opinion on this, which motor should I go with?

thanks

in my opinion,its not even debatable. the 1.8l will have a better power band,better low end since ure planning on autoxing and not boosting,and on top of that its cheaper. If its LSD u want,add 200-300 to ur gsr swap and hmotors or pretty much any place u get it from should be able to get an lsd tranny for you.

Oh yeah! Well not a whole lot, just a front lip and the exterior will be finished for the time being. Then probably intake and exhaust work and I'll just have my fun little weekend "warrior", haha.

Yeah man! That stuff is amazing. Took me about 3 hours but well worth it. My car could use another wax right now in all honesty but the surface damage really cleaned up. I have a few swirl marks in my hood that it couldn't get rid of but other then that they come highly reccommended. This pic is more recent. I haven't waxed it since probably August, haha.

For those that don't know, I got me some little JDM knick knacks to spruce up the two sols, just am waiting to put them on until I know for sure where they go.

Oh and for xmas, I gave my parents a list of the parts I need, and said get together and get one of these or give me money to help with the motor. Gonna tell my dad I want a buddy club Race Spec "L" seat or money to put a motor in. Gotta scrimp and save so I can have it in Vegas in all it's glory
