nice. You have an updated picture?
also, how did you make your rear wheel base wider to match up with the wide body kit?

They are kind of difficult to see from the pictures but they are much more visible in person. As for the wheel bar nothing had to be done. You simply compensate by using a wider wheel. In my case, I have 20 by 12.5 wide in the rear and 20 by 9.5 in the front. I also an using 15mm spacers in the back to even out with my fender.

It rides like a dream. No issues what so ever. Cornering is nice as it hugs the turns. There is no rubbing. Maybe a little scrape here and there under the front lip and inside fender liner on certain dips but not bad at all.

I find shiny mufflers to be so early 2000s! I don't know why so many RCF exhausts still feature this cheap, dated looking aesthetic. It's probably just me.


Is there any Pics of this car from the side, Really looks Good

First time I've seen your RCF, It REALLY does look NICE without going Overboard! I think i'd Cringe though if I knew what the $$$ was to build it to look like that!

Thank you Johnnyreb. I still cringe when I think about how much I paid to get this car done. I got hit with the mod bug pretty bad I suppose...haha.

It's nice to see an RCF ripping it on the tracks. Sorry about your accident. Some people just don't need to be on the roads. Hope it all gets sorted out for you.

So, you replaced your TE37s with Advans? How were you able to source them? Nice car, by the way...
