Maybe it’s because of the height of the car. But I really don’t see flush.

Then again, maybe it’s my opinion of the definition of flush.

Voila!

Obviously I don’t have much to say opinion-wise due to my stock wheels and suspension. I’m just defining it and being the devil’s advocate.

Seriously the car looks good. I like it better in this bluish blackish colour rather than the red.

^^^ it is flush, but car looks somewhat ridiculous. Looks like more of a showcar look.  
I prefer ty’s and gregs/pavels old wheel fitment to that.

thanks for all the comments guys.

i’ll take a picture at the same angle as the red show car and you’ll see that mine fit just like that.

yeah, i need to drop it some more. my D2 dampers are all the way down on the back so im getting the new ones off bing, they apparently go 2" lower. i need the roller from greg first, sasha said he’d do it with me.

THANKS AGAIN ALL

No need to spill the beans on stuff you don’t know about.

To clear things up: It’s not a show car…at all.

Seriously, you have no idea as to what you’re talking about.

Just because they look good, doesn’t mean they don’t drive.

More examples of actual drift cars, not hardparkers. 😉 Cars that people drive themselves at the track. 😉

I know whos car it is and i know its not a show car.  
I just gave insight into my preference in wheel fitment.

Don’t give me any crap about me not knowing what im talking about, I’ve been in the 240 scene alot longer than you and I know alot more than you. Dont be a douche.

I didn’t mean you. Not at all.

You said show car “look”. Fine, that’s great.

Spilner said “show car”. Which it clearly isn’t.

Chill out.

And no need to get all up in arms and start saying that you know more than me. Don’t be a douche.

You should be able to sqeeze 2 fingures between the top of the tire and the lower part of the fender in the front. Don’t do the same mistake I did. I droped the car and then when I crank the wheel all the way and make a fast turn it rubs like crazy. Now I got to get my front raised a little to avoid the rubbing.

THANKS JONTOAST!

yeah TO240SX i might not lower the front more than another half inch. the car has sort of a rake going on right now anyway. plus the front lip makes the front closer to the ground. the rear is too jacked tho i dont like how it looks from certain angles.

Exactly … and these jugheads are arguing about a pretty picture that got posted 😉

For the record the car looks great and VERY flush 🙂

Yeah I’d say about a half inch all around. I dunno how pronounced your rake is but my car has it as well and that’s with GAB Supers all the way around. I think it’s a little closer to 50/50 and I’ve gotten used to the look … looks kinda cool to me now. Plus you are already pretty low. Your lip looks about as low as mine and just yesterday I drove over some unmarked construction area and plowed a bunch of gravel out of the way and slid across a lane doing it. yikes.
