gonna need overfenders all around unless u want rubber band tires and 326 power camber lol. look up chargespeed overs they look good with stock body
 
Do you plan on sliding this car at all? Not saying that it's impossible to slide a car that looks like that, but it wont be too fun. It's too low to have proper suspension geometry, unless you install some drop knuckles to correct bumpsteer, and even then, the car will work better with another 3/4 inch higher. Also all the camber in the rear will result in very little grip. Stretched tires mean even less grip. The car will be unpredictable.

Now, if you plan on just making a street/show car, that's an awesome looking car.
 
slamm it , choose the wheels with the right offset and other dimmentions, and mess with the camber, and pull/roll the fenders accordingly
 
The over fender comment was pretty dumb, clearly that car doesn't gave overfenders! And why tell the guy he can't drift a car that looks like that, all he said was "how do i get my car to look like this"! The answer is really simple, buy wheels that size, mount tires that size, roll fenders until that shit fits.
 
that dude did it without over fenders and it looks tight as fuck. why would i need over fenders if i stay with the same size as him?

its a drag strip/ street car mainly street and back and forth to work. i dont drift and i rarely drag or street race anymore its more for looks and rideing out to work.
 
^Obviously you can do it without overfenders.

Just get some fresh ass expensive wheels like him or pb&j got, roll your fenders, and get all the suspension shit you can to get proper: ride height, camber, caster, and toe.

Done.

for the rears im looking into hks coil overs will they work?
 
^I cannot tell you if they will allow you to drop your ride height to aquire the exact same stance that gentleman has. But if I were you I would buy a full set of the same brand coilovers, so you know the condition and they are evenly balanced.
 
Why the fuck would he need over fenders to acquire the look of a car that doesn't have over fenders. You're all fucking stupid.

And I believe that car had the rear strut towers chopped and raised to go lower.
 
what if i just drop it off to someone and they do all this for me make my car look like that then i pay and take my car lol. that sounds alot easyer lol.

Relax. I never said he can't drift the car. There are plenty of cars that look like that at drift tracks all over the country. I just said it wont work too well if he plans on sliding it, but he stated that he will not drift it.

Now, he did say he might take it down the strip a couple of times. If you plan on beating anyone with the car, running all that camber wont help you launch off the line. You need to get those tires planted somehow if you want to see a decent E.T.

I'm not telling you how to build your car or what to do with it. Don't get me wrong, "stanced out" cars look great, but I was just giving advice in case you had other plans for your car. I hope I didn't hurt anyone's feelings in my post, and if I did, I'm still not sorry because I didn't say anything wrong.
