H&R DRS? or DRA? I'm just wondering which because I prefer not to open up my brakes to replace studs

DRM is twice the work! You have to torque 10 studs instead of 5 on a regular basis.... no thanks.

I think as long as you torque them right from the get go you should not have to continually re torque them. It's still a good idea to check up on them just in case though. I've heard many people with the DRM's and everytime they rechecked them after months of install they were still at the correct torque.

THIS, I like! :tup: Looking forward to pics.

oh, by the way, you may want to order the SPC or SPL rear camber arms and toe bolts to get the rear camber and toe back in line.... ;)
You don't want premature wear on those meaty tires.....

Nah, he should be close enough with such a minor drop the swifts give.

EXCEPT, the larger the tire, the more pronounced the camber. The insides of his 305's are going to see a lot of wear compared to the outsides. See my pic below

I added camber arms to correct the -2.8 back to a more reasonable -1.2

Holyshit, good stuff! Take photos when you get them. Where did you buy these from?

Marcusz 03-07-2013 06:39 PM

Got the spacers from essexdistribution.com,the swift from 370z tuners and got the re11s from my buddy next door

Marcusz 03-27-2013 07:15 PM

Got my 305 s today and wow thats is meannnnn

Marcusz 03-28-2013 02:31 PM

Ok i got the 305 s on and they were very hard to get them on but we got them,now i put them back on the car and they fit awsome,i dont think i need to lower the car at all and there almost flush,once i put the spacers on i think ill be happy with the way its going to look,i dont really want to lower the car since i live in canada lol the roads and all those stupid speed bump can be very expensive,now i wonder what to do whit the front i still got the stock 245/40/19 on so im thinking to put 265/30/19 on the front ,i wonder if its a good idea?

Right from the forum FAQ's:

How do I attach a file to a post?

To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main 'New Post' or 'New Thread' page and not 'Quick Reply'. To use the main 'New Post' page, click the 'Post Reply' button in the relevant thread.

On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled 'Manage Attachments'. Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments. You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page. Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.

To upload a file from your computer, click the 'Browse' button and locate the file. To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page. Once you have completed one of the boxes, click 'Upload'.

Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window. You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.

What files types can I use? How large can attachments be?

In the attachment window you will find a list of the allowed file types and their maximum sizes. Files that are larger than these sizes will be rejected. There may also be an overall quota limit to the number of attachments you can post to the board.

How do I add an image to a post?

If you have uploaded an image as an attachment, you can click the arrow next to the 'Attachment Icon' and select it from the list. This will be inserted into your post and can be located where you want it displayed.

To include an image that is not uploaded as an attachment and is located on another website, you can do so by copying the full URL to the image, (not the page on which the image is located), and either pressing the 'Insert Image' icon or by typing [img] before the URL and [/img] after it, ensuring that you do not have any spaces before or after the URL of the image. You can insert pictures from your albums (?) in this way too.
