Why so much hate for this car?
Its not like any of you have to drive it?

Its just another "JDM" car that will end up defected and returned back to stock for the rest of its road going life.

love the lip
love the style of wheels
love the coilovers

hate the fkn ugly arse bright red horns
hate the blue lenses (defect notice)
hate the rear camber, dialled up waaaay too high
hate the stickers


i will admit i only saw pics of the wheels with the spacers on there. the later pics with no spacers make them fit so much nicer. they actually do suit.

yer the lip looks good. needs something on the back and maybe the sides to compliment it.

I don't hate the car, I hate twats that spend money doing lame mods that make a car handle worse than it would without them. I just don't see the purpose. It's like cutting your cock off because it dangles and gets in the way sometimes.

He is from Adelaide though, can't expect logical thought processes can we?

Wow, I wish I could tell how a car handled by just looking at it.

The camber is not excessive, the guards aren't scraping the wheels, good choice of coilovers, tyre stretch eliminates sidewall roll, good width and track of tyres. The only things missing are spring rates because I don't know what they are, sway bars and castor arms.

If those make a car handle worse than stock you had better tell every competition car based on a road going chassis that they've been doing it wrong and should revert to stock.

They are pretty bare bones items in the import world.

Better yet, how would you get this car to handle better?
