So I was thinking about when I get the maxima.
When I was leaving from Walmart,I had seen this Slammed/Hellaflushed S14 with Corvette Sawblades, and it Sparked me with some Inspiration. Bear with me here. I want your guys opinion on this.
When I get the 4th gen, as the first setup, would it be good if I put Stock blades on it, Lowered it 1.5 Inches or 2 and put a Black front lip on it and a croocked fart can on it with stickers on the back window or a bike rack.

2nd option,
Lowered 1.5 inches,
Open Exhaust Cutout + Stock muffler
Enkei RPF1 (Painted Dark Blue)
Some type of Duel Headlights/ Retrofit + Angel Eyes
Clear 95-96 Tails (Black and White)
CF Ionic Dynamic Spoiler

Kinda Simple right.
I just want your guys opinion and show some pics of similar setups or ideas
Positive comments Please

 

Well your first problem is that both of those options have a moderate drop, to get anywhere NEAR the look of that s14 you saw you need to go lower (over 2 inches) no point in having low offset/ "Hellaflush" wheels and you're lowered 1-2 inches. Suspension and wheels is always the main focus make sure you drop it on good suspension NOT JUST LOWERING SPRINGS, id spend most of my money in these two departments so you get some nice fitment/stance.

 

I see, how much inches would you reccomend and Which setup would you do?

 

Not much of a suspension guru however i have a good drop (gr2 w ksport springs) on stock sawblades. looks ok and rides ok but for what youre looking for u need to go lower...i regret not going coils and for what i spent i couldve done coils for around 200 more....ijs

 

Coilovers and the rest of the second option.

 

you should buy my sawblades that i cleaned up and powdercoated 98% gloss black. theyre on pretty new tires too.

 

Throw option 1 out window...fart can FAIL... black n.clear tails also FAIL... lip yes id spoiler yes...coilovers and hellaflush ye...

 

Slammed and tucked on stock wheels can look sick. Have fun replacing axles though. You'll be doing it 4-5 times a year if not more depending on how much you drive it.

Coilovers are a must have for slam/stance. Especially if you roll on stock 16's. Unless you tuck you'll also need wheel spacers if you want a flush look. Coilovers first and foremost though. No later what wheel or look you go with.

 

id go for option number 2 just because i LOVE enkei rpf1's they look sick. To be honest i don't even go by inches, buy a set of FULL coil overs and when you drop it on those theres no inches measurement of how low you are since you can obviously adjust the ride height to your liking.

 

I hear this a lot from people on lowering springs/struts combo, its also happened to me i changed setups like 3 times before i just bought a set of full coils and never had an issue again and ride was better.

 

 

Any pics of similar setups.
Keep em coming

 

one of the only ones I have with about a 2in drop but no blade pics

 

GR2s and ksports w the z32s


Same setup with blades...


the ksports give it about 1.6-2" drop i believe

 

i will be on tokico illumina / s tech (2.2"f 1.8"r) rolling on silver sawblades within 3 weeks and i will post pics for ya

 

if you deside to go coilovers i just happen to have a set of d2 racing coilovers, just rebuilt for sale. 1000 bucks and there yours ...your not going to regret coilovers

 

2.25" drop front, 2" drop rear on Matrix springs and KYB AGX with Stock 16" S14 wheels.

 

Keep em coming and comments are appreciated

 

S.techs on 17" SL wheels

 

The picture in my sig is 3 and 1/4 inches on 16" wheels, and I'm scraping my resonator only, (crawling over speedbumps) just an idea for you.
K-sport coil-overs is what I have, I had springs on my last 4g, bumpy, crappy ride and the stance is nothing like what I wanted, even on 18" wheels, you learn from mistakes and seeing other set-ups to inspire you.
I and many others will suggest coil-overs, so worth it in two facets, ride comfort AND the stance you'll NEED when you get the wheels you WANT...

 

H&R and tokico illumina setup on 215/60-15 tires on bbs rims. I am selling this setup since I want to get my coils back.

 

Keep em coming
MEGA THREAD anyone?

 

^^There is already a lowered thread, we dont really need to have two.

Call me crazy.. but aren't corvette wheels 5x120?

if so, how did the s14 get those on his whip?

 

Redrilled or hub adaptors

 

This.

Done.

 

Im not an expert in rims but I've seen it done on many cars, aswell as a Golf

 

its easy, they use adaptors.

 

Ok my opinion I got the quote unquote croocked fart can i personally like it only thing is when u come to lower it u want stiff suspension cause when ya back drop it has the potential to rip off the muffler. but your option one i personally havent seen slanted exhaust so its a different look n sqwatting saw blades would b tight but any none maxima rim give it a sexy look like 350s muranos(i personally have) G35s etc long as bolt pattern is 5x4.5 http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/...408_174141.jpg http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/...408_174117.jpg

 

watchout your comment bro

 

Would you scrape with a 2 finger gap underneath with a 215/60-15 tire size. Just wondering since im getting my D2's back and would my axles be worn out easily by this drop?

 

No and no.

 

Is that 2 finger gap youre talking about between the fender and tire, or crossmember and the ground?

 

You can get the Enkei wheels in a blue from the factory. Its a limited edition



not a fan of the color but the wheels are strong

 

I say drop it 6 inches

 

Between the fender and tire. I just wanna really wanna know what's the lowest I can go without really scraping. Over here we do have some pretty big speed bumps at times and low ground near the sidewalk too.

 

Sorry I am asking here too since that's how I am LOL. I can never make up my mind unless I ask like over a million people hahah.
