Inspiring work
You have done some very inspiring work. Nice job! The pictures speak for themselves. Are you on stock springs? Using wheel spacers?

thanks man as for the suspension the front is lowered on HKS coilovers and the rear is just cut springs for now.
and no wheel spacers front or rear
but i do need a 5/8" wheel spacer for the front to be able to fit my 20's back on
