fu98765 and RYNO 98GSX

[Gopherhog]

Well, i had these two fools over at my house cause they were nice enough to try and help me replace my headgaskets. When they were distracted i took a few pictures of their rides.

Fu's is the Red one and RYNO's is the Black one

are those 16's:P

[R.Y.N.O (98GSX)]

No, they are 17's with 40 meats on them. Tires are thin as hell....yes yes I know. I wish I would have gotten 45-50's. But they are new tires so I will keep them until I need new ones. What do you guys recommend for next time? Maybe I should lower my car an inch or 2?

Man ryan, just get some thicker (stock width) tires, and it'll look freaking awesome.. But i know you spent alot on the ones you have now.

Hell, lets just cut your springs :)

[R.Y.N.O (98GSX)]

Hey buddy, your from Salina, me and fu98765 are Soph. at K-State University...I have no idea if thats remotely close to you....but oh well. We are from Olathe Kansas...the both of us! Hit me back, maybe we can meet up sometime...I'm not sure of any other dsm member other than this one guy from Topeka. We'll have to do something some time...meet up at KCIR or Heartland Raceway.

I know the user SaLtY is from topeka but I dont know him either, but hell yeah, lets get a gang and run up the heartland. i'll be my first running experience at the track so i'll need some fellow dsmers there to make fun of me and whatnot.

i was in the same way with the last rims i bought....thats why i bought 18's this time.

you dont have to totally slam your car, but at least get an eibach prokit. that wheel gap is freaking huge.

[harry99GSX]

I say lower it and when the next time comes around change the tire size. Unless you got money laying around to just go out and buy another set of tires......... The wheels themselves look good on the car though. Once lowered it shouldnt look quite as bad as it does with the gap.

[broadypunk]

we've all had the wheel well gap...but as soon as you put springs on, and you lower the car off the jack for the first time, you'll be smiling from ear to ear.

[R.Y.N.O (98GSX)]

okay, well how much do you think I should lower it, and still be able to drive it around? What is the average drop with out any problems?
-Ryan

[Lucky_721]

go airbaggs..or air cylinders......whats not to hate about ajutable ride hight at the flip of a switch...just hope you have though dogh to do it...
just my 02 cents

[BigBADGSX]

yo ryan.....just wondering if i can park my car uner your wheel well gap! lmao!!! just kiddin, yeh i would suggest you lower it sometime, but shit GO FAST FIRST, look whos talking HAHA!

[infury]

nice picture :)
thats a nice sight
I still love the styling of 2G-B's.
I think they are some of the best stock looking cars ever made.

The only thing is that everyone already mentioned.
Holy wheel gap!
And it's your car but I don't like the red around the fogs.

I have trouble with a 1.5" drop. How do you drive with 2? I almost ripped my FMIC, and bumper off a little bit ago in the burger king parking lot. Get a moderate drop, and big rims will hide the rest of the gap.
I like the red on the foglights. It'll draw attention away from the hard core wheel gap. :eek: :D

[R.Y.N.O (98GSX)]

thanks guys! Yea, I'm thinking about selling them on ebay! I think I'll put them up for around $800 bucks! They are only 1 month old.

AHAhaHAHAHA oh boy. That's good. :D :D

Finally, someone noticed his stupid red foglights. :rudolph: He did those himself. I think he's pretty proud of them :)

[R.Y.N.O (98GSX)]

thanks erica...fuckin pansy!!! anyway, yea I did them myself and I don't think they look that bad :D Anyway erica, you might not be seeing them any more....I'll give you a clue...rhymes with SS!

imho, an eibach prokit would be perfect. sure, a full 2" drop will look the best but a prokit is perfect for daily driving. nice drop..great handling...just watch out for speed bumps...
