  1. Oh wait my bad that was not brackets car. El Nino what's yours?
  2. good god machan dont, i learned this the hard way! simple physics of the matter is: lowered springs have less flex, to avoid the car bottoming out. they're much stiffer than the OEM springs. the stock dampers are built to handle the flex rate of the stock springs. so you end up with tight springs and soft shocks. its suicide. car won't hold the road and the ride is torture. i mean you just can't drive it 50 feet without a fractured vertebra. if you want to lower, there is no cheap alternative you HAVE to go for a coilover strut conversion with camber and tow adjustment arms for the suspension. these, basically: (for your information, i'm not saying this is the ONLy brand/part out there) rear camber and toe kit: http://www.ebay.com/itm/TruHart-Rear-Camber-Toe-Kit-for-08-12-Accord-09-13-TSX-TL-TH-H210-/181454219194?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a3f83a7ba&vxp=mtr front camber kit: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Whiteline-Front-Camber-Adjusting-Bolt-Kit-12mm-Mitsubishi-Lancer-Evolution-Evolu-/141190631185?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item20df9e0f11&vxp=mtr coilovers with adjustable dampening and ride height: http://www.ebay.com/itm/D2-Racing-RS-Adjustable-Coilovers-08-12-Mitsubishi-Lancer-Ralliart-/261476871224?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3ALancer&hash=item3ce13c6c38&vxp=mtr so you get an idea of what you need to be done. suspension geometry will give the car a negative camber on the wheels when you lower (as in the car will be running on the inner lip of the tyre, and it will look like its "squatting") you have to correct this, or you'll be running through tyres faster than louis suares has memes made of his teeth! here's a shot of a car lowered with camber corrected here's what it looks like when camber is NOT corrected: here of course its not corrected because you cant, when its slammed to that level. but you get the idea, hopefully!
  3. A sticker film with uv protection will of course protect your lights. You don't need a smoked colour for that even a clear sticker will do
  4. No in fact A*W repairs are very good. Ive seen them work and they are very competent. I dont own a nissan personally but ive heard good reveiws from my friends who do. A with any agent theyre not cheap, but their work is excellent. For a job like this, where like don said there most likely is chassis damage, agents are the best bet if you can afford it. What does insurance say? Usually this sort of damage is a writeoff. Are they sponsoring the repair?
  5. Its the pile up amd ship issue. They do it but dont admit it. And keep lying about where the shipment is. When the supplieers delivered the goods to kapruka, as tracked by the american freight companies, they took over a month to establish that they had indeed received it. Then another 4 months went by where no one knew what happened to the goods. No track of where they are nothing. Finally they admitted they had lost it. I cant understand how such a big consignment goes missing. There were my calipers, which alone was a huge box, and a set of d2 fully adjustable coilovers, a brembo brake pad kit and a set of home theatre speakers. Delivered in two consignments. Goods were accepted by kapruka warehouse and mysteriously disappeared. Even the refund was given after we muscled a senior executive legally to give it. Things got ugly. But eventually refund in full to the dollar value of the goods.
  6. Kapruka lost my wilwood brakes in a shipment worth 260,000. It was all the lying, bulshitting and covering up that was the worst of all. Took 6 months to get refunded. So much time as to lose a significant amount on dollar appreciation!
  7. Had to steal him off yours. Your work is largely done.
  8. But... But crosswind why!?
  9. This was the result of me making a scene. And cash. Work is progressing.
  10. anae uncle, kiyana devaaleka-ta wadinnan! magae car eka iwara karala deepan ko!
  11. TINKER: [ˈtɪŋkə®ˈ] an elusive mythical creature who, seen here in his natural habitat, conjures up shapes from bare metal to complete a vehucular carapace for a host entity. rarely seen at work, this wonderful, yet lazy, selfish, boorish creature is known to collect cash advances for services rendered and disappear for days on end with no notice. its absence is known to cause cardiac and cerebral haemorrhaging in the host, leading to complications if he does not return within a month. following photos are a very rare capture of the tinker hard at work. a sight not seen in these locales for nearly 3 months.
  12. We have now begin to make zero sense. Good!
  13. Have you tried repairing it? I know of a good electrician who is an expert at this sort of thing. He's in bellanwila. Might be able to help you. Send me a message if you want this contact details
  14. Vtec is going to be with vvti this friday. Vvti is going to kandy. Hope that answers your question. All this brouhaha just to know where vvti is going. Shouldve jus asked him straight no
  15. Some keis Are all wheel drive, and 660cc turbocharged. Tgose should be a hoot to drive
  16. Common issue in Honda men. Rear doors no? They can be lathed to fit, or just grease it up real good. Should work. If not, try tech motors panchi or Maruichi auto delkanda.
  17. His insults humor us. Hurting you is an added plus. You can drive your Prius to the strip and run your car and your mouth and see results for yourself. How I can I tell you results when you're not there to verify your claims?
  18. Next time my friends tear up the drag strip, I'll ask super dad to join. I personally don't take part in these d!ck shaking contests, for personal reasons but let's see how he faces up to a starlet gt boosted by WEPR, a mugen crz, rx8 and others. Anyone else want a front row seat to watch a Prius have it's priass handed back to it, lemme know
  19. 6kmpl 1.4 million. And oddly, I'm those figures make the both of us happy for completely different reasons. Tell us more about how the Prius handles well. Please. You surely must know something we don't.
  20. juat sayin... seriously, how inadequate do you feel, on a scale of 1 to 10, to drag race your precious prius?
  21. All thanks to you men! Tinkering work has sped up. This is getting better by the day! Can't wait!
  22. hated the fact that i had to ruin the surprise for you. couldn't find the font anywhere!! i guess this way its not as obvious as letter on your car, since its on the inside of the glass will last longer too
  23. aney hukey!
  24. wonder how the driver escaped? i've heard that the AMG door comes rigged with a charge on each side to blast it off in case of an event where they can't be opened in a crash. like if it was upside down. its not like you can squeeze through the windows either. wonder how he escaped. i don't think blasting the doors off works when there's so much pressure on the doors from being submerged...
  25. oh for crying out loud! i've actually done the block thing. in pasikuddah back in 2008. works pretty well.
