Perfect fitment. Love the direction you're going with your LS!

If you want to fix the front and rear caster, I recommend adding a camber adapter in the front and the toe, traction, and camber arms in the rear.

Thanks, appreciate it !

Thanks Chrispy, you car has been an inspiration to me...

Where do the camber adapters go exactly? I would think the front but not sure... I saw on your build thread you purchased some Nagisa auto camber multi adapter, but didnt see any pics of them fitted!

Thanks,
Yann

Thanks! They go between the knuckle and lower ball joints to lower the front 30mm and push the front wheels forward 10mm. They also push the wheels out slightly, maybe 8mm while adding 2-3 degrees of negative camber.

Hello all,

Quick update - Bought some brand new OEM Celsior visors for a great price as I had been wanting a set for a while now.

Here are a few pictures of the fitting process. The instructions were in japanese, however its pretty straight forward to fit them

Brand new OEM visors:




JDM/OEM japanese instructions!



The 1st step is to insert 2 tabs per window between the inner seal.



Line up the visors with the chrome surround, peel back the double-sided tape and stick the visors on whilst aligning the holes in the visors with the tabs. Insert the securing plastic nuts in the visors and through the tabs,



I used some tape to make sure they would stick correctly.








IMO they look really good and the quality/fit was perfect.







(ps: Whilst I was at Advanced Auto parts, this gorgeous "low-rider" 1977 monte carlo parked next to the LS....his trunk/hydraulic pump setup was very impressive, he even made the car bounce a couple of times!)








As always all comments welcomed

Thanks,
Yann

woaitaimei

thanks! i posted the post-lowering in a different thread. Didnt want to thread jack!

how has the gold rims look gone with time? still thinking of repainting them? the pics of your car inspired me to look for gold rims with a chrome lip! i think its looks great.

Which is how you pulled the air lines from trunk to struts? You pull lines inside or outside the car?

YannG

I ran the lines outside the car above the protective covers. Let me know if you need pictures!

Thank you! Initially gold was not the color I wanted but they are really growing on me and love how they look!

CelsiorFin

Pictures would be nice.

YannG

CelsiorFIN, please find the pictures below showing where I ran the air lines:

First off I wanted to protect the airlines as much as I could and wrapped them with plastic tubing:



I then routed them above the plastic covers:









Zip tied them where I could to avoid them getting pinched.











Hope those help!

Let me know if you need me to grab some more pictures, but as long as you follow either the OEM air lines (if you have an UL) or the brake lines you should be fine

Thanks,
Yann

Hello,

Quick update - I decided to replace my spark plugs as I didn't know when they were last changed.

I used the OEM plugs and to be honest the overall process was very easy and I did not encounter any major issues apart from one of the spark plugs wiring protective cover crumbling in my hands.










I also decided to clean my MAF sensor as it clearly needed it:








I also noticed that the spark plug right next to the battery was the dirtiest, perhaps someone had not bothered to change it in the past? Either way they are all done now



All comments welcomed.

Thanks,
Yann
