u got coil overs, i had problems getting my 17x8s fitting with my stock front suspention

do the Villians need special lugs? it seems the steats in my villians are more narrow then the regular 60 degrees.

not my car but I didnt want to make a new thread:
Was watchin The Italian Job and spotted an FC in the traffic scene so I googled it and found a pic.
There was a first gen in the left lane in addition to the FC turning. What a coincidence

I sometimes worry if things like this aren't coincidences, but rather a director or someone involved in the placement of the cars was a rotary fan or those were both his cars.

Thank you, but u haven't seen the underside have you?



What started with this:





Became this:






And ended like this:






Beside that I have replaced all 3 oil seals of the differential, the carpet is not smooth anymore, needed to replace brakelines from front to back and added some corksport stainless brakelines as finnishing touch. And i'm still at school

So, a lot need to be done, but just keep smiling and it will be fine

Waiting to sell some stuff so i can buy defi gauges and a apexi air filter. Time to clean up some plastic, can't wait to do it

Very nice! It always strikes me as odd at first that you guys have what we refer to as our convertible tails in that the tailights are narrower so your wider license plate can fit.

Beautiful car, and awesome streets! I would love to drive around your country.
