New Pics of my 97... SE

So I finally lowered my car, dropped on sprints/KYB AGX. Just thought I'd update since last I heard, everyone thought I needed some lowering. So, here we go.

meh, if anyone with power wants to move it, they can feel free, but I know no one would ever look at it over there.

I have the struts set at 3/4 front and 6/8 rear. It rides rather rough, but I actually really enjoy it like that. The handling is so much better than stock, and if you dont mind a slightly rough ride, than I'd definitely suggest this setup. As for the rims... I really like the rims i have, and bigger than 17 might slow me down too much.

I'm actually in the process of getting a pair of the dual beam projector headlights from maxgtr2000, just saving my pennies for that. I dont know if I like the shaved look, but I've thought about getting 5th gen emblems and puting those on, or just painting the stock ones glossy black. Not sure what i want to do with that. As far as the tails are concerned, I'm still liking the red/clears, but i guess we'll see if I ever get tired of em. Thanks for the nice comments everyone.

looks really nice! and I wish I had a place like that to let my car pose and do her thang! ha, anyway, just one thing, sorry to be negative, but JW: are you muffler hangers broken? your tip seems to be really low compared to the bumper, and even angled down.

but anyway, I really love the look of the rims with the black. car sparkles!

I actually backed into a dirt barrier thing thats further up that same road, thats why my exhaust is all screwed up, but i plan on getting some dual exhaust soon, so itll all be good again. Thanks again for the nice words.

More fun than I could have possibly imagined. Takes my dad 45 minutes to get from our house to the shooting range thats up at the top, I did it in 15 minutes. Nothing beats it, but the gf hates it when I do that...

Pics are up on Old San Marcos Pass, if you've never driven it, you should some time, I've never seen a cop there, and its quite a fun twisty road. Oh, and actually I go to SBCC, slacked off too much in high school for UCSB...

BTW, you should join sbcars.net and help my represent the maximas on there, think we're the only two.

The rears have one coil cut, and overall its a lot lower than I really want, so I'll be putting some progress springs on in a couple weeks.

BTW, thats not smog, crappy camera+fog=looks like smog.

The road actually isnt that bad, only rubbed in one spot, but it was the frame rubbing on the road, but other than that, its a fun road.
