Cool looking - where are you located? Not too many people around here are running King Springs - they look like a perfect drop and the 16" gunmetal RS wheels look tough!

I did gunmetal RS wheels on my BK - but they didn't look "right" to me.

Nothing budget about that turbo engine build. Car looks good on the drop.

Where did you get the Kings? If you had specified non-turbo EJ25 1999-2003 then Kings should have supplied you with the correct front spring to bring them even. There's a difference in the EJ20 turbo'd BE chassis, EJ25 non turbo and EJ20 non turbo (front end weight).

turbo swap wont be for bout 4-5 years. gotta finish building my 95(brakes/suspension/drivetrain) then finish wagon, then swap the 95 then the lego will be swapped. Primitive ordered them for me. I just went off king's site for part #'s. I'm happy with the front, its the back im a little upset about.

Nice Ride. I was about to get those rims over the weekend, but ended up getting Prodrives P7's. It looks really good with those meaty tires.

How much is that body kit that you want?
