krysiu + 100km zone + overtaking + 350rwkw + tree = Parting out ford orange 33gtst, front end damage

[llama_au]

Been spotting a light blue cube a few times lately, with a grey stripe over the top- seemed to have the optional flares

Neoclassical kit, I'll be doing the same.

[UNR33L]

killer wasps!

[blags]

Be good to see the cube end up looking US spec (good offset mass camber) but most likely end up Aussie spec right?

[Basti]

right

Need a daily driver, any suggestions?

Woohoo... Car is going for a trip to uncle schimko

you wanted aggressive fitment, Rekin runs pretty mild fitment.

the reason why his scrubbed is:

A: he was running a big tyre

B: his guards werent roll enough/right

C: his suspension was too soft

with 17x9 +20 u will be running a 215/45, hard suspension, then u will go at ur guards, just enough to make them fit (rolling and slight pulling in areas). when i talk about stock guards there i mean rolled guards as it's kind of a given if u want any sort of aggressive fitment. u wont need to flare to get a 17x9 +20 under.

17x9 +16 225/45

Yeah wasnt aware that you were after aggressive fitment. Mild fitment is 17x9 +30, anything more will require some guard work. Be it rolling or flarring.

All options are correct. Bilstein suspension setup. No stupidly hard JDM yo' suspension found here.

17x8 +30 on 225/45 seems to be the limit before rolling is required on the front. (thats with my bilstein setup that is)

the circlip adjustment is just the start of ur woes, the biggest problem is they use the standard hats, by having the top spring seat sitting down so low, ur spacing the suspension up, lifting ur car effectively.

u need to turn this:

into this:

Where do I get those hats from? Look much nicer than the 18yr old standards hats im using..

this.

mallet and dolly that shit, then hit it with paint. hell, just a simple roll will do if you wanna go princess spec and get you some extra clearance.

asking pat for fitment and stance advice is like asking the pope about what type of condom gives the wimmins the most pleasure.

haha nice call. It all comes down to your suspension setup and size of tyre willing to use.

I have 255/40's on my 17x9 +30's with -0.5deg camber so there is a bit of poke on the rear. Will need to ether drop down to a 235/245, moar low and camber. Dont think the 255's will fit unless guards are flarred. Already have adjustable rear camber and adjustable circlips on the rear. Got an EPA to worry about first though

For a nip n tuck?

No one has suggestions for a daily driver to cart my hairy arse around?
