R.I.P. to the original hub spacer test car :(
I just got a call from the owner of the xD that started it all (the hub spacers).. she was involved in an accident this morning, totalling her 08 xD. some bimbo in a honda oddesy made an illegal left turn without looking, right into the front of her car.. absolutely no room to react.
and now
be safe out there kids, wear your seatbelts!

Finally the time came when the itch to start modding my car became too much for me to handle.
My goal with the car was to achieve a set up in which i could drive daily but still be able to enjoy through the twisties or maybe occasional track day.
I wanted it to still ride nicely but have aggressive suspension that could handle anything i threw at it.
Also, I wanted to have the car to ride the line between sporty and classy. We'll see if I succeeded.
On friday my car started out the day bone stock. The only mod done to it was my air freshener lol.
I ended up installing these parts:
Full TRD Suspension (Springs, Shocks, and Rear Sway Bar)
Team Dynamics Pro Race Wheels (16x7 +38) with Hankook Ventus HR-2 Tires (205/45)
Bride Euro II Seats with Bride Rails and Weapon R Brackets (Thanks Garm!)
Penguin Garage 10mm Rear Hub Spacers
Muteki SR35 Lug Nuts (Black)
After Installing these parts Ive gotta say, it turned out better than I hoped. It is an entirely different car now, and I am very pleased. I am going to enjoy driving it like this for a while til the urge comes again.
Without further ado, here are the pictures. Enjoy!
At the beginning of the day (before shots)
the parts
the front suspension installed
the half way point (front suspension and one seat)
some quick after shots (the next day)
after a nice wash, all shiny!
and the finishing touch :smile:
all comments welcome!
