well I'm running a decent amount of camber, so I'm more flush.

In Torrance where my mom lives the roads are amazing, I would have my car super dumped, but in North Hollywood where I go to school...it sucks, but I don't know how you do it in the snow. I try not to take my car out in the rain

yeah not gonna argue with the tC purists lol.
I went to this meet tonight, and noticed a lot of "riced out tC's" imo all tC should be slammed/flush haha.

Stopped off on the way back from meet.


And I don't think I've ever shared this...

geez man your car is taking a beating. I remember seeing a photo of car with the rotas back in the day, looked really good. Still does.... minus the battle scars of course.

Do you have your fender liners/under splash gaurds? Whats causing the flex of the bumper? When I had my tC I didn't have any use to flex a little. Just had the it supported where the bumper meets fender and a few in the engine bay.

Mine does the same thing Blake, having no splash guards and zipties acting as clips makes for a flimsy ___ bumper

I have my splashguards out... Yeah totally got cocky last night and didn't take an angle on the driveway... About ripped the front bumper off.

I like the look of just taking all the grills out and leaving it open. I might try that...

I have no splash guards in the front or clips, flexes a lot...thats why I can go out of some pretty extreme angles, but zips ties will usually bust...had my lip pretty much dragging a couple of times. When I was at the meet I scraped frame every bump, people reactions are funny :D

Really digging your car, but just so you know some of us don't have the herrafrush stance because we want to use our cars in a performance sense.

I like that some people go for performance, but you gotta have some crazy funds for boost. I saved for around 6 months for my Rotas and around 8 for my Miros. Boost hmm maybe 2 years? If I go f/I I'd got all out fully built. That just insant for me haha. Props if you go can have performance and looks. Most people I see have one or the other. You can only drive fast 10% of the time or look good 100% of the time.

Did you need to run a spacer up front to clear the brakes?

thanks for the love

running 5mm's on the front, and 8mms on the rear. I tried to drive without spacers, but that wasn't gonna happen haha. Going with 10mm's front and 12mm rears soon.
