man i can never tell if your joking or not so i just assume you have no idea and u potentially fail at life.

yeh its fkn soo sleek its just like the ultimate cruiser.

edit u get coilovers or spring/shock combo?

nah just tein s-tech springs, the stardard shocks are surprisingly stiff

like most cars, it needs swaybars for body roll.... but for handling the s-techs on the factory struts are fine for the streets

maybe later i might go coilovers... but for now im happy with how its sitting

sweet as get a build thread goin ya lazy mofo.. if i missed it link it up :)

night ya'll

17's on a evo looks like ass unless its slammed hard. which you're never gonna do.

just sayin.

grids are good tho, and look sweet on an evo. remind me of oldschool enkei's.

since you're not gonna do a "street look" you should go for the rally look... I'm talking mudflaps, good clearance, thick rubbers and most importantly, spotlights. lots of them.

ive heard that the stock shocks in the evo are stiff.

ill have to lower my car when it gets here also.

already got some plans.

yeh for now i just want a better looking wheel than the tarmacs... being white looks shithouse

most likely ill go the grids in 18s later on when i got more cash

yeh the jdm evos have really stiff shocks, more than the adm cars

stop wasting your money. if you even think for a second "i'll upgrade later" when buying a part.... DO NOT BUY IT! just save for an extra bit longer and just buy what you want to put on it later.

nah if i dont like it i can resell the wing blade, if i paint it i cant

why paint the bonnet? its alloy dick jockey only have a black hood if u get carbon

haha yeh that one looks nice, but epic fitment and epic low

the black suits having no wing

lol i was trolling

your too easy

haha nah i thought long and hard about getting the grids in 17s

they look the goods on a red US evo 8 that was about my cars height atm

if anything itll be coilovers most likely later on to lower it if i get over it

Lol yea they are stiff as. My mate has an evo 7 bilstein edition (whatever that is) and it's a bumpy arse ride standard

tryn to work out which is cheaper 18s or coilovers

and coilovers are in the end

you're choosing to get 17" wheels (over 18" that you want) so that you can afford coilovers as well right now?

just buy the coilovers now, save a little more, then buy the 18". your car will roll just fine with the wheels its got on right now.

    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
    • I just quote the Rolling Stones. Paint it black.
