looks great man! no shark wings, bodykits or none of that stuff. your car looks great as it is! also excellent color choice for the calipers! rims look awesome. is it a 5-speed?

Nice like 2'' in the front but only about an inch and half in the back. My car rode off road style, worse than other RD1's ive seen, but it was stiff as hell stock.

Just for that I went out and spent like 5 hours sanding and bondoing more of that shit... its not perfect but a drastic improvement. The pics look worse than in person for a change.
