MR Lancaster, how do u like the ride of your suspension? How much different from stock is it? stiffness/body roll etc..

 

Its great, Im very pleased with it. Its very smooth, I go on a lot of trips, and its yet to dissapoint on long road trips. Its a lot tighter feeling. a lot less roll than what I had with the outback setup. From the bumper to the ground is about 5'' (Without the lip)

 

I'd suggest it to anyone looking for a nice affordable setup.

Talking about 3rd Gen face lift models, I believe you can't just do a headlight swap, you need the hood too. I wanted the E-tune II hood as it's aluminum but was told I'd need the face lift headlights units too because the lines are slightly different.

oh yeah i think i heard that before.. that seems weird that they would change it so slightly that its barely even noticeable

They fit perfectly, theres just a small gap between them. Barely noticeable.

i think he is referring to jdm last revision headlights, those do leave a small gap and if you get HID ones you need to cut out notches in headlight support for modules to fit

 

ps. we want pics in daylight high res when its done ^^^

Ok, my question is how would the hood from a 3rd Gen JDM 01-03 BH5D (face-lift model) fit on my BH5B Leggy? Would there be a gap or might it actually hit my headlights?

 

Some pics to compare:

it might hit the headlights i dont recall anyone trying rev d hood with a/b/c lights, if you are in japan it should be pretty easy to pick up a set of lights and a front bumper from rev d and just do a full front. also D grill will not fit previous bumpers. look at this car i think its a a/b/c hood and grill with D bumper and headlights if you can reverse it in your mind it may help lol

Thanks for the pic, I can see how everything lines up. Looks like I'd need a whole front-end to do a hood swap.

Nice! Do you have a side profile pic? You've come a long way. I remember you from sl-i.net when you were asking about suspension options to lower your car... if you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost you to paint the whole car? Did you have the door jambs and behind the side claddings painted as well?

680 after clear coat. I didnt have the door jams done, me and my friend are going to work on those and make them flat black.

 

Thanks for the compliments!
