Kouki_Love · 08-27-2009, 02:26 PM

Whats going on guys, as some of you know i posted a build thread of my s13 track project a few weeks back. Well i was thinking and i never posted one for my daily. Comments and Advices friendly!!!

Well here it goes.

Car.
97' Pearl White Kouki

Parts List as of now!!
Apexi N1
Cusco Zero II
Circuit Sport Tie Rods
Circuit Sport RUCAS
Circuit Sport Rear Toe Arms
Sport Max 962 Lame specs
Volk Racing GT-Cs Mag Blue
6k HID kit
Personal Suede Wheel
Sparco Quick Release

I purchased this car 1 year and 4 months ago. It was meant to be a daily and I got a really good deal on it, so I couldnt pass it up. I am the 3rd original owner and it was bone stock when I bouth it. The only bad thing is that it has a Auto Fail Trany!!!

( which didnt matter then because i had a broken foot, lmao )

Here are some pics of the day I got the car..

The first thing I did was get rid of the old bubbly tint.. "3% tint so you cant see up in my window" lmao...

Few weeks after the tint, my buddy sold me his Apexi N1 for 50 bux plus my stock!!!!

Then I picked up some 17' 350z wheels..

Now the car stayed like that for a month or so. My tires were starting to get really bad so i ran into some 962s for 300 bux with brand new tires. bad thing was that they were 7's in front instead of 9's... sunken battleship ftl!!! And I also got a set of 6k HIDs

Then i ran into another great deal on some Cusco Zero IIs for only 550 bux.. They were a few months old but just had been mounted on the guys car that never left his driveway.. I know it looked gay to be tucking 9's sunken in but these pictures were before i got spacers and got rid of all the negative camber.. The wheels now sit flush and look prety good.

I havent taken any pics of the car for a few months now. But i did manage to pick up some Mag Blue VOLK Racing GT-Cs.. people never believe me when I say this but I picked them up for 448 dollars.. Some kid i knew totalled his z and got kicked out of his house. Lucky me, I had 448 bux in my wallet.. lol

They need to be refurbished becaue they have some curb rash damage.

specs are

19x9.5 +9 Front
19x10.5 -11 Rear

For now the car still sits on the 962's.. I just ordered my extended studs for the rear so i can start fitting the Volks. After i get the fenders rolled and wheels fitted, they will be getting refurbished...

It is taking me a quite a bit because I am really focused on my s13 track car now and I just spent extra change on the daily..

Ill keep updates and maybe take some more recent pics...

Z33dori · 08-27-2009, 03:02 PM

wow.... that is by far the luckiest deal on wheels i've ever heard... and i hate you for it. lol

are you keeping them Mag Blue, you should.

Kouki_Love · 08-27-2009, 05:53 PM

lmao, tell me about it.. no one ever believes me. I only have one witness that went to get them with me.. The best thing is that they all had center caps and the only thing wrong is the curb damage.

I will be keeping them Mag Blue... I heard something about VOLK discontinuing that color... ??

Kouki_Love · 08-29-2009, 04:46 PM

I took a few pics last night while waiting for my girl...

this is how it looks as of now and currently putting the Volks on...

Its amazing what a 30mm spacer can do!!!! lmao

Kouki_Love · 09-13-2009, 07:14 AM

Little Update...

My Nismo extended studs just came in the mail.. I sold the sport maxs and ordered my tires for the front.

should have them on this friday...

just need to buy a fender roller, studs for the front and lug nuts!!!!

S14_Kouki · 09-13-2009, 11:18 AM

nismo studs niceeeee, hopefully I can see these in person soon

Kouki_Love · 09-14-2009, 07:11 PM

thanks man.. Do you live in Tampa??

btw... i just got done putting my rear studs in today..

before..

after..

i also put the wheels on just to see what i was getting myself into...

S14_Kouki · 09-14-2009, 08:10 PM

shit man your going to need a crazy pull

greddy2die · 09-14-2009, 10:22 PM

nice deal on the wheels damn!!

big pull + lots of camber...lol cant wait to see the wheels on the car

deolio · 09-14-2009, 10:23 PM

if you pull your fenders i'm going to cry

personally, i'd sell the wheels and get something that would fit without a ridiculous pull... twocents

Hell naw mang pull that shit till they fit

Kouki_Love · 09-15-2009, 01:25 PM

come on guys, i have seen people do more aggressive fitment than me and still looks clean... i am eventually gonna do overs but a good roll and pull will be good for now...

i will never sell these wheels...

i am ordering my PBM fender roller this week and will start working on the rear fitment!!!!

thanks man.. ill keep it updated..

Kouki_Love · 09-25-2009, 05:21 PM

lil update...

got my tires all mounted..

PBM fender roller came in...

Rays Lug Nuts for GT-Cs

215-35 Falken FK452 19x9.5

235-35 Nankang NSII 19x10.5

Nuts!!!

PBM..

will start working on the fitment tomorrow after work...

Apparently I have to run 5mm spacers all around because the lug but ket hits the extended studs... so i gotta fill in the small gap so they can tighten all the way!!!!

reccakun08 · 09-29-2009, 01:11 PM

Nice. What a steal on those rims!

deolio · 09-29-2009, 03:02 PM

why don't you just return the nuts and get some extended ones like these Muteki SR48-32905B Super Tuner Extended Racing Lug Nuts M12x1.25mm?

Okinawandrifter87 · 09-30-2009, 02:16 PM

Updates on how they look now??

Muteki lug nuts dont fit the GT-C lug nut whole. my roomate has them and we have already tried. I am talking to other local Volk owners and i am going to compare my wholes to theirs and try on their nuts.. Itis such a stupid problem to run into at this point... but hey, rather do it right than half assed...

i am just gonna use the ones i already have. they are GT-C specific straight from Volk Racing. I am going to notch a bit of the rear studs off and put my rears with no spacers or anything.

I finally got some time to fit my fronts on 2 days ago..

no roll and no major camber in the front. Relocated the harness to the side of the fender.. No rubbing at all, not even at full lock. Great for a daily... still need to go about 1/4 inch lower on the passenger side.

pics..

Kouki_Love · 10-10-2009, 08:58 PM

cleaned out my interior a bit. and finally put my headliner back...

S14_Kouki · 10-11-2009, 09:30 AM

Looks great time for the rears

niSm095 · 10-12-2009, 08:31 PM

what Personal wheel is that? I need a new one...I like the stitching and all on that...

ixfxi · 10-12-2009, 10:32 PM

agh........

such a clean looking stock car, getting fitted with parts that im not all that crazy about.

im with the above poster, those wheels are NOT for your car.. i'de sell them and put something that fits.

not a fan of the circuit sports parts either

Thanks man, to be honest i dont know the excat name of it. i just tried searching on google and other forums and the closest one that i got was the Grinta.I did not see any that had the Personal stamp on the spoke of the wheel.

well thanks for the clean car compliment.

as of the wheels, your now the second person that tells me that they dont fit/look right on my car. i dont take it personally, just your 2cents.

I think they look perfect in my car, and as of now, the fronts fit awesome. Just got to get it alligned after i put my rears on. They are perfect for a daily and they ride awesome on the highway... As far as selling them, I rather keep them just for the fact that i only payed 486.00 dollars for them.. when i get done with my s13 ill eventully find some other wheels.

S14_Kouki · 10-13-2009, 02:05 PM

Shit man idk if im going to that bbq anymore have you seen the threads on TR for real ppl are going to get in a huge gang fight there.

Kouki_Love · 10-13-2009, 02:38 PM

lmao... What!!! i havent seen it.. Ill check it out..

i dont wanna go if its gonna come up to that... i rather just have our own bbq at my pool... lmao

Flicktitty · 10-13-2009, 02:47 PM

looks pretty good, Not a HUGE fan of the wheels, but i think it will look good once it is all done.

If you ever plan on selling the car let me know.
