I'm usually pretty understanding about mishaps that occur but if they are having issues responding too then something else might be up. Still think this thing would look perfect with some classic TEs or some 03's or something fancy like that.

There's always more to do and I plan on updating this build throughout its stages. I should be contacting BRADA today on my wheels. So I'm going to get to the bottom of this and see what they can do. I need my car on the road asap |

Hey guys so another update.. contacted Brada wheels because at this point
I needed answers about an eta for my wheels. looks like I will still be waiting about 2 weeks sadly.. tired of waiting around I contacted my friend with a R33 who said he had spare wheels he can lend me. He was under the impression they were oem r33 wheels. The second I saw them.. I was like nope deftly Advan T5 wheels lol so I gave them a try. the fitment is weak but once again just something to roll on. Here's a mock up Here's the car on the ground at night with the rps13 taillights on, looking nice ..I forgot how low the car was since it was on jacks for awhile lol The clearance from the rim to the coil.. wheels specs are 18x8+30 Once I lowered the car had to snap a picture with the lower front lip..i will have to modify it so it doesn't sit as low and scrape everything. After I got them all mounted, balanced, and torqued down took it for alil test drive. Everything seemed fine. My favorite picture that I took after the little ride. decided it was good enough to bring to Nissan and show the guys. I plan on getting some spacers to make them fit better. I plan on using them as my spares until I get my 3 piece wheels. then I will adjust suspension accordingly. I Guess the next update will most likely be my wheels.. I do have some other small things in the works to further differentiate from most s13s. |

So after some driving this weekend going to some car events,
ran into my first problem with the Advan T5s. After the suspension fully settled during right turns a loud grinding noise became more apparent. pulled over and realized that the wheel was touching the coilover spring.  After finding some members on my facebook page. I was able to source out some 20&25mm spacers . 20mm up front and 25 mm in the rear. also fixed the front lip so it would sit flush against my type x lip. Sits much better now and doesn't scrape as easily ..also a reflection of me.. front view of the car with the revised front lip. Also finally received my business cards!! lol only 2 years late.... Also spoke to Brada literally 5 minutes ago my wheels have been shipped and I should have them next week. We have a cruise going down to Formula Drift Round 4: The Gauntlet excited to have them before that event! |

Listen here you cunt..... your car is so damn nice and done in such a way that I don't even want to go mess with mine anymore. I dropped in a nice clean S15 SR and upon viewing your thread became so overwhelmed with jealousy.... it's nice to see what my car COULD look like. Now to do it.....
