Obviously the tires rub. See the front flare pulled from the fender? They rub. The owner has chosen looks over function which is his prerogative. If you believe a 'sports car' with this stance has retained its function you are either mistaken or in denial. Anyone who has owned and driven a vehicle of similar characteristics can attest to the poor ride, loss in tractability, increased wear on components and a requirement to alter ones driving habits to avoid any obstacle for fear of grave damage. Truly, it sucks to 'roll hard'.

Sure it looks good, however to those who have progressed beyond their teens and twenties, obnoxious idiosyncrasies are less likely to take precedence over function.

^ I have no intelligent response or worthwhile input. (Just kidding )

Holy cow! It automatically changes "kewl story bro" to "I have no...blah blah" haha

Haha true! I was just looking at my clearance on stock suspension and was trying to figure what kind of magic went into getting moose's car so low and fitting those wheels in there. Obviously not magic, but probably trial and error and previous experience I guess.

Just curious, thanks for the response Moose.

Yeah it makes a noise at full lock, and I can't bomb over speedbumps anymore, car is ruined You still upset I have better taste than you

Your car might not be my cup of tea, but I like it for what it is. One of the better-executed stanceoids.

I'm actually still upset you haven't shaved those hideous federalization markers. Given the title of your thread I was hoping to see something new but was again disappointed.

Still saving those pennies for air bags or did your parents stop paying your allowance? Keep 'rolling hard' boy.

That seems a bit hostile.

His fuel tank holds 7L more than yours.

Never assume tone in an online forum.

I'm ashamed. Clearly, his is the superior vehicle.

It's unfortunate that our ego's get so wrapped up in these cars that when aspects of the cars are seemingly attacked we perceive our very persons attacked. If a car is a representation of who we are then our perspective and likely our priorities are out of balance. My car is not who I am. It merely reflects my taste (and budget) during a time in my life and nothing more than that.

That's what I have tatoos for. If cars didn't exist, I just don't see the point of being around. I'm not as smart as some of you guys though. Ignorance is bliss, I guess.

I'm disappointed that the camber isn't -45 in the back yet.

All joking aside, your car looks great. I'm still coming to grips with the 1J however. If anything outside Bavaria would go in mine, it would come from a TVR.

Hey man I love the build but what transmission are you running?

Obviously he chose style over function. And I think he's done an absolutely stunning job. I'm also pretty positive his "Stanced" E28 would easily outperform my mostly stock E28. The 1JZ motor is a beast....

Holy four-year-old-thread-revival, Batman.

He does not even own the car any longer.
