Ugh. I know. I want to put it in so bad. Just gotta figure out how to make it legal cause it's my daily.

nice! cant wait to see how this turns out..

nice choice with the D2s! I wouldve gotten those if I didnt find my superstreets for cheap on CL.

I like the drop.. I had mine that low but my fenders chewed on the tires so I raised it. I need to roll and add some camber to go that low. I was getting too many bumps.. wasnt comfortable at all.

Do you have a camber kit?


















you need some wheels!

put frankie in the air on jackstands,

sell those wheels to a silly ricer for like $500..

proceed to buy some like xxr002 or something that looks nice thats relatively cheap off craigslist..

put your steelies on franks


proceed to win.

Thanks dude!

No camber kit yet. Bills get in the effing way all the time.

I dig the wheel idea. I never thought of that. Plus the only things I ever bought second hand was the car from a dealer n the motor from TigerJapanese.com so I'm kinda freaked about that. Guess I gotta give it at least one shot.

Gianinline makes these in 4 diff. colors. I rrrreeeeeaaaaallllyy want a set.

[Balwin]

dont be worried about used parts off CL.. just dont buy crazy electronics stuff that breaks easily..

are those the FFC LCAs?

LCAs dont really do anything.. waste of money IMO.. especially when you could use that money to go towards your swap.

[ShadyCoupe]

Nah the FFC's don't have the cut-outs. There's a guy in the CD squad that goes by Gianinline on NWP n he makes them. They look a lil better IMO.

The money's not the problem with the swap. I just want it to be able to pass emissions cause I need to drive the car on the daily.

[ShadyCoupe]

Edit: It's decided. I'm gonna build the F in the '96 with quality NA parts n tuck the bay. THAT'S IT! Then I'm gonna build the '94 with the H to the hill with boooooossst. I'm not gonna **** around with the boys at the DMV no more. It's just sucha a ****ing headache. Won't be touchin the '94 for a while though. I wanna get my daily at least to the point where I'm happy before I thouch the H.

OBD1 ftmfw!!!!!!
