How do you mount the spacers to the original studs since ours are 1.5 pitch and their included nuts are 1.25 pitch?

just get a set of nuts that are 1.5 pitch.

nice ride. i love big boats sliding.

im surprised that those wheels dont fit better. lowest offset for the rear in 18x10.5+15. that should be very flush. dont get me wrong it still looks really good.

btw what are you using for ebrake? i was planning to do hydraulic but thats an overkill for a daily driver.

The tires I am running in the back are too big, 245-45-19 so when I get smaller ones I can adjust the camber to perfect.

I use Brid ebrake shoes, I had sent over from japan. big difference.
and I took all my abs **** off so 4 wheel locks are easy now.

good to see a SC drifter WITHOUT a spoiler, I think it looks fantastic, like if NASA designed an SC.

I have a question about your rear bumper(or is it just a lip) Anyways does it cover the other exit for the muffler or did you have to have the body shop fill in the gap...just wondering

glad you like it too, I had the bomex on for a little bit but took it off when I painted the car. I think its cleaner without the spoiler.
I got a pic I will try to find it.
