I like seeing different things with these motors, better that than seeing the same track builds being recycled over and over. |

Whatever though. Looks good enough for an absolutely non-functional vehicle |
The equivalent of stanced cars, for parachuting, is a parachute with holes in it.

I like the way it looks. Some guys track, some guys scrape. Do whatever you'd like. Did you need absolutely need the rear toe arms to correct the geometry at that camber level? I've read about some guys running -4 in the back on OEM arms

Y'all are great. Unfortunately the car is far from being "absolutely non-functional" as its still my daily driver, still pulls away from "functional" cars in the canyon (but that is more dependent on the driver), and is still fun as hell to slide (probably more than ever). I don't do it for "hardparking", I drive it 90% as hard as I ever have. The thing about slamming a car that is built for handling is that it still drives pretty damn good even with a completely retarded suspension geometry. Understeering is annoying but it's only certain turns and even then it's still better than a stock WRX. If you're going to hate on low cars at least bring some interesting arguments. TBH I'm tempted to go lower all around with stiffer springs but then it would actually be fucking impossible to drive. My fuel tank is already dented enough lol.
Agreed on the spacers and rep wheels though hahaha it's a work in progress. Trying to save for a trip to Japan now instead of blowing it all on dumb car shit. Quote:
