well I added my agx shocks/struts, H&R springs(say 1.7"/1.8" drop, but it's more like 2" all around), skunk2 pro series front camber kit and ingalls rear camber kit. Waiting for live.com to go back up to 25-35% ebay before I buy anything else.

before:


after:



I'm in the middle of getting everything figured out on how to install the s2000 AP2 cluster. I've tried contacting the marklamond guy to set everything up, but I haven't gotten a response yet.

forget the AGX. They cant take a drop. looks like you have the camber kits coming already I would have said forget those too. Otherwise good job not ricing it out. Im not going to tell you what you should do, its your car.

Looking nice and clean mate. I would give up on contacting Mark, don't think he's replied to anybody in ages and his page hasn't been updated in months.

Think people are using the modifry units and a speedohealer instead.

lol just wondering how the tint has to go? It's the legal % all around. And I think the rims size 17's look perfect on that model. 16's are ok, 18's too big.

And I know the pic makes the wheel stand out, but it doesn't look like it clashes as much.

he is saying take the tint off because its too dark not because its illegal, and the rims are too big, you shouldnt use a larger rim to compensate for a stock ride hieght. lower it, put a more transparent tint, and paint the wheels or something. i dunno it looks strange to me, no offense just food for tought

lol how is it too dark? It is too light if anything. I think like 30%.

I don't understand what you mean by using a larger rim to compensate for stock ride height. I think anything under 16's look way too small for that model.

no offense taking, just clearing things up and understanding where some of you are coming from.

17"s are pushing it. As far as the tint it appears to look purplish, I would remove it. Sell those wheels and get yourself some 15"s or 16"s and lower that sh!

can you guy see all 3 pics?

it says before and after. After pics shows the car lowered. And look at the first pic, that's what the tint looks like. It's less than a year old, no fading/purple, not too dark, like 30 or 32%.
