Man what happened to just showing slammed cars with good fitment and talk of how you made it work? This thread turned into a giant debate and drama central. As Mookie posted, we can be slammed and functional and thats all this thread was supposed to be about. Not garage kept queens or cars lowered only for the couple pics to say you did it. Lets get back on topic here.

cant wait til i can slam my car...this sportline kit is not cuttin it...but at least im not stock height, i couldnt handle that shit
ill roller - I'm planning on runnin 5Zigen's...but wanna keep 17" wheels...I want to go low, i know i can with 18'sbut wanna keep it @ 17" so i was thinking 17x7 or 17x8 in front and 17x8 or 17x9 in rear... what offset do you reccomend?
not sure of the coilover yet either..any brand? what do you use ?
First you gotta see what 5zigen has to offer, i dont think you can do custom offsets with zigen, 2ND. His opinion and your opinion may be different on how aggressive you want to go. Obviously His opinion is going to be low as possible and dumped to the max, Which is my view aswell. Again, Depending on the wheel and what they have offer youre probably going to be looking at a low 30 offset all around. Keep in mind, Youll need to do some body work to pull off anything lower, Its not just about the right size tire and offset, gotta pull and roll aswell...I'm no "ill roller" but ive been doing this for quite sometime now, Im sure hell chime in with his input aswell.

back on topic. reviving with chasers and RWBs
yea its probably impossible we'll ever own or even drive these cars. but this stupid forum also said our offsets were "impossible" but me Ill, mikefate, sega genesis, inex, driftmx5, post engineering, phillipB, foreplay, o2isjw and latenights run that shit everyday. and some of us track too.
Can we make this an IS300 slammed aggressive thread? I know there are many dope ass cars out there. I feel it would favor more if it stayed IS300 specific.

serioulsy...I mean, there are def some nice cars in this thread, but I'd MUCH rather see some IS's with a description of their set-up. Seeing that this is an IS3 forum, and most members drive IS's.
BTW PhillyB...your car looks iLL w/ the paint job dude.
Can't wait to see the final outcome. What are your plans with the motor ?
Thanks man.. Heres another pictures.. The motor iam going to build the stock block go with a GTE top end and single turbo. I had some crazy ideas yet ill save the money for something else.

like i said... take the next 20 hours and search for aggressive IS300s. 70% of all searches will probably lead you back to here where we posted some gangster IS's
the fender's looked good before it was painted,but now they look even better... i def like the theme your going with. Always like white on white.
i got a ggp, and as thinking of getting rims (when i get them) paint matched to the car.
i will probably go with 5zigen's FNOR1-C, the black with polished lip, and then MAYBE have the black part of em color matched...MAYBE...like i've mentioned before, i think i wanna keep the 17" size.
