    ive decided to just suck it up and keep working on the car.

    well i have a guy working on getting me a custom coilover setup. i should have the money in a month or two if nothing else breaks on me. they'll be STANCE coilovers (www.stance-usa.com). same company that i had on my 240sx and i KNOW they are quality.

    i caught the flu or something, so i havent been able to get stuff together on the 2. theres a few things that i want to do (one being cleaning my interior)

    car lost about a pound or so thanks to natures weight reduction (rust) i hammered my 1/4 panel lip to "roll" and "pull" it under the flares. i also found out that mt 1/4 panel is a lot of bondo :( shit chunked right off. anyway, my wheels no longer rub on hard cornering. so thats good.

    next step is to cut and weld them so the wheel well is higher up. im waiting on a friend with a welder though, so this does it for now (i was rubbing so bad parts of my tire got cut off! :eek:hsnap:


    a few days ago i also FIXED my leak issue. write up will be up in a day or two. (loss of photoshop)



    anyway, just a short update i wasnted to share. i also cleaned in interior! i havent done that for months! :D

    Do you have any pictures of the part of the 1/4 panel that you hammered to roll and pull it for more tire space?

    haha, i was hoping id fool at least one person.

    itd kinda half asses PS. the front road/driveway is kinda f-ed up. i figured out what coilovers i need/want. so ill be saving up for them.

    i also decided on what wheels i want, so those are after coils. (15x9 +15 15x10 +10)

    that will probably be easier to find, but i still think it would be even easier if you convert to 4x114.3

    there is absolutely no way to convert to that for me. ordering custom wheels will probably be best for me.
