Veil350z, if you look at the rear wheel and rear fender, do you notice something wrong.

oh. type 3...

no matter how good your fitment is, that kit will always make it look like poop. if the fenders aren't cut, remove the kit or replace it with something better looking. or maybe you could find someone in your area that likes that kit and would want to trade. that would probably be the best way to go.

Yea.. My uncle didnt get this body kit put on right..I am debating to remove atleast the over flares, but there would be holes all over due to being bolted on. :/ The fenders aren't cut. Im just seeing which one would be more cost effective.. My budget of my rims are $2000.. Nd i have been thinking about finding someone to trade with!? Maybe i might put it up on craigslist.

the flares are the least of your problems. if anything, leave the flares and change the kit. or pull it all off and get the holes filled. i'd definitely throw it on craigslist and see if you get any offers if i were you. even if you get and offer for something different it might be worth it to avoid the expense/hassle of taking it to a body shop. for wheels, you'll have to be patient and wait for a nice set of used wheels to show up in the classifieds, or save up a bit to order some new ones.

yea

you guys might of eefed up somewhere...

if your on stances...

I advise finding a flat spot, and jacking up just the rear...taking them off and setting the dampering to zero...

If you know how to set the preload...do so now or evenly set both sides. Set the height the same by eyeball then put them back on, before putting the wheels back on count threads, and hopefully there the same when bolted in..

then check tire pressure...

cross fingers...

Yes they are.. Lowenhart LD5. I was told from my local buddy that i could rebarrel and make them wider,bigger lips,etc....
I just dont know any place locally in the Bay area or if it would be cost effective.

thats what I did with mines. Lol

Well I figured it's lower on our side cause we sit there and the weight is on our side. hardly people sit on the passenger side so maybe that's the cause of it?

i'm on some cheap group buy coils. they're oem type.

both collars are removed. dampers are both set at 10/12 clicks. tire pressure is the same.

one of my subframe bushings is torn so i figure it's either that or because of the cheap-o springs sagging. i'm about to drop the subframe and put solid bushings in and order some stiffer springs all around so i'm not too worried about it...
