I will be selling the 4 lug fuchs shortly I am sure.
Half way done on the 5 lug conversion. Drove up to AA today and grabbed the front bearings and what not. Waiting on the 2nd set of wheels to get here, but I had to get the old front tires off so I could drive it.

What do you think?

It's a personal thing I know but I would lower it by at least an inch.

Any, picturs of the interior? I really like the beige/brown ones.

I can understand why you might want to, but you don't have to. New rotors, fresh or at least decent condition calipers and Porterfield R4 pads and that thing will stop like you won't believe.

Nice car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png)

Jon,

Yeah I plan on taking it down a little bit, I had been under long enough yesterday. I got a new carpet set so some interior pics will follow.


Thanks

It's actually a royal blast (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) to bomb around town in a 914 without worrying about scraping curbs and speed bumps. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Dash will be getting re done so it is apart right now. I did the carpet kit this week.
I think this is as low as I will go for the time being.
