Looks so sick man, I love it! The back with the blacked out lights is my favorite part.

Nice max man but yeah it would definitely complete the package with a nice drop. Which are the newer pictures? The blacked out tails and smoked front lights or the clear front lights and non-blacked out tails? You need a nice hamburger up front too

All blacked out are the newest pics. And the hamburger is getting painted so i can put my 95-96 grill on. Once i change out my tires i am going to give it a nice drop but running those damn 30 series tires man i really cant do much.

Before recommending any drops. I would highly recommend getting the right sized tires at bare minimum. Make sure they are also suitable for the power that the turbo is pushing. Actually you should get some bigger rims because you will have some problems driving with that rims/tires setup after a drop.Then proceed to get a drop. Overall, not bad.

I say shave the back or color the nissan logo black to go with the rest of the car, do the same to the trunk keyhole too. Spray paint the IC pipes black too, because they stand out more than the IC, and I think it'd be sick if it was all blacked out.

Besides those little things, this car looks amazing. It's very clean. Do you have dyno numbers or any guess as to how much your putting down?

very nice....I love the stealth look w/ black everything....that front bumper looks really low to begin with because of its style...you might have some problems dropping the beyond 1 inch.....you also need to watch for the edge of your rear bumper (right behind the rear wheel)..because of the way its cut it snags easily on any kind of incline if the car is dropped too much...

You are correct. y combination is about 24.3 inches tall rim and tire. So it dropt my car about 2 inches. Once i change the tires and restore my ride height I can afford to go lower.

I'm Loving the turbo setup!. My honest opinions on somethings would be to,get more tint up front(dont know whats in back but 5% all around would be nice). I agree with the other members and suggest you get more rubber on that ride. Its kinda like a girl....More rubber makes a safer ride! haha. Plus when you do drop it(which the car really needs) it will fill up any wheel gap that the drop doesnt get. Gives a nice full look and compliments the ride nicely.All in all i like what you've done.Keep it up!

Post #26 addresses the tint. Its illegal here to do the fronts. I would love to tint it all but i dont need the extra hassle.

clearly what you are saying is true....but the difference is not that big

215/30/18 tire has a sidewall of 3.0in

235/40/18 has one of about 3.7in

I would be more worried with wheel curbing and warping than front bumper damage (which will likely occur at a low speed) with a 30 series tire anyways.
