lol at the rear toe.

Hold the stock arm side by side with the new one and adjust them to same length next time

Cool the stock stud fits in the Teins.

I just put Tein Flex Z on my honda accord. Much better than the bottom barrel stuff like Megan and Ksport for the same price. I was really hesitant but pretty happy in the end.

Nice car, post more pics xD

Looks great! So nice of them to include that rear wheel steering kit :lol:

front is lower in pic, I ended up adjusting it to 2 finger gap.
I didn't bother looking at the recommended height since I know how low I like my cars haha

LOL! that's a good idea. we ended up having to adjust the camber a little to get the toe in since the toe arm adjustment wasn't enough. Hopefully the alignment can get it all dialed in when I go.

Quick pause on buying parts because I'm almost done saving for the wedding, and have too many other things keeping me busy right now.

That said, I did get an alignment, but I'll be going back for session 2 as they couldn't get it to -2.5F and -2.0R within OEM spec toe in time.

Here are some pictures at -3.0F and -2.3R.

Usually not a fan of warmer toned pictures, but here are some photos I took near the lake :)

I like them, but haven't pushed them much so can't comment on performance. Daily they're great so far.

First autox in the new suspension, wheels, and tire set up!
I still have a lot of room to improve but I can tell I'm getting faster.
I started out being near the end of the list of my class, to near 14th place out of 30 racers in the same class.

For context, fastest time in a similar class was 53 seconds from an AP1 S2k, and my fastest run was 62 seconds.

I'm learning that the most important thing is seat time. :)
