You are right it is your car BUT we do have freedom of speech here, so go luck with YOUR evo, and continue notching it up and enjoying how people dislike your tastes

Oh shyt the A.Z.A.B.'s lol

On another note the longer a car is out the more boring it gets to see the same things done to it over & over... OP is just trying something different....most ppl who DISLIKE this thread are either for drag or Auto-X some people just like their cars to look good & different...


If you dont like the direction the Evo community is going, buy a GTR.

It's the frame rail above the front tires that are limiting me from going lower. Bagged Evo's tires rest on that same frame rail, not frame on ground. With this notch I will be lower than those bagged Evo's. The design of the Evo frame is what is limiting people to actually rest the frame on the ground.

I'm sorry people are upset at what's going on but I've taken my car to its limits and this is the next step to go any further.

It comes down to this, you post on a public forum people are going to give their insight. PERIOD

Butt Hurt/Hater those terms to me bring to mind the word "Jealousy". Which is certainly not the case here.
Looks are a matter of opinion. Sure

However destroying the handling aspect of a great sports car ummm. not so much Opinion there
X1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000

God I hate when people don't like something and post their opinion it gets written off as hate. Its not hate if I'm stating my opinion out of fact or my own taste, not because I'm jealous.

I swear some people have never gone to school because clearly the use of the word hate in the context that people like to throw it around on here bugs the crap out of me. LOL.

But continue on.

I'm interested in seeing this though. Hopefully it'll be done soon; good luck.
Wouldn't have mattered. The ones that don't like it would still not like it and the ones that love it still would.

Noticed this trend a while ago which is why I stopped going hard at some of the newer trends. Way of the world. And when they have finished hacking up their cars they will move on to something else. Their cars. Their choice.

But I can also say what I want about it to. Internet is a two way street. Not everyone is gonna like it. And if they don't like it then they don't like it, doesn't mean they are hating because they are jealous.

I disagree, I don't drag race or track my car and I can appreciate a Evo with an aggressive set of wheels. I just think they whole mexi-cali wheels sticking out from the fender/wheels having to have dangerous camber just to fit thing is retarded. Poke Hella-Flush its cool to look at but the extreme cases just go way too far IMHO.

you seem to have your panties in a bunch. Please keep in mind that not all people that buy EVOs are interested in tracking or driving their car the way it was meant to be driven. Im willing to bet less than 7% of the users on this forum track their car at all. As much as I am against how low his car is, you don't see me bashing him for screwing up his car. If Kbuss wants to slam his car then he has all the freedom in the world. You read the title, don't like it? Get out

I'd rather be sewn into a human centipede, forcing me to inhale and secret human **** than be caught dead in that car.

Kudos to you, you have officially created something that should be scrapped under the "Cash for Clunkers" option.

Good work son, good work.

It's your car man and obviously you're going to do what you want to it, I just don't understand the whole stance/camber/dumped on it's face trend. The car won't handle or function the way it was originally intended for. You might as well take the turbo out while you're at it.
