It was always a cool build on the body work side, too bad it got ruined by awful wheels, tires that don't fit.

This build would have been amazing if he didn't ruin it with the stupid stance crap.

Those wheel wells look awful with the "stance" crap. Save that $h*t for 90's Civics.

It was always a cool build on the body work side, too bad it got ruined by awful wheels, tires that don't fit and an owner who, from all his responses, still had a chunk of coat hangar in his frontal lobe.

I'm all for people modding their cars however they see fit. It's their car, they can do what they want with it. It's about the passion, not the car/mods.







. . . that being said, I HATE the whole "stanced" car scene.

I think it's great that he had the passion and talent to turn a perfectly good Z into stanced-out piece of crap.

At the end of the day, isn't that what this car hobby is all about?

I agree to some extent... But to go and ruin one of the most beautifully designed cars on the road... THE STANCE! It hurts my eyes!

I've seen worse. That body work looks like it was well done. I'd take this body work over a rocket bunny kit any day of the week. Definitely not my style, but I don't get the amount of hate here :/ If you guys want to hate, hate on SPC camber crap after spending 25k on wheels and body work lol. AND he also has BOTH coilovers and bags listed as suspension work...like, what?

Hey man I wanted the rocket bunny kit for my s13 so fuxing bad! Hahaha.
I loved that ****. It was even greater that their site was full of pr0nz.

Interesting car to say the least, not my cup of tea, but can definitely see some stance whores going crazy over all that work that most of them can't afford to do.

"Awarding winning car at Stancewars Vegas 2015, and Import Spring Show Off."

That's a really big deal LOL.
