Check that thread out, its a photoshop of what is to come :yup:

The 505A was my second choice :)

I see the 505A too often. Its very nice to see yours with the classics, excellent choice IMO

those rims look good! you'll be happy with them. The quality is top-notch. I went with the classics since I haven't seen a t/a with them yet, locally or on internet.. I am happy with my decision thus far.

loooks bad ass..how are u liking the KD's???

[bastien]

they're pretty good for a street tire... I still get her lose in 1st-2nd, though.

[mrr23]

look even better in person. you get those clips off the front rotors?

[bastien]

sure did, thanks again for switching my tire/rim. :)

[nhra-trans-am]

looks great, definately needs a drop though.

[djvaly]

+1 I agree, drop that beast!

[djvaly]

Bastien,, what tires and wheel sizes u got on front vs back? and what brand name of wheel and tires..
thanks

[TheSilverSurfer]

Nice setup!

[Hurley711]

If I were you, I'd get some blackouts long the front to compliment the black ride. Really finishes off the stealth look in the front IMO. Nice ride

[Hurley711]

looks great, definately needs a drop though.

Could lower the rear an inch for free with the heater hose mod, even out that "Tugboat" look

[mrr23]

his wheels are 17x9.5 with 275/40-17 and 17x11 with 315/35-17 BFG KDW tires.

In the last pic you can read KD on the rear drivers side tire:hide:

agreed, still deciding which springs/shocks I want to go with.

Thanks, Rob. They are KD's tho :)

thanks for the info.

I would do Eibach Pro Kit 1.25'' drop, it will do 1.5-1.75'' after it settles in a few weeks or so.. then definetely get Blisten HD socks.
3 hours labor @ $80/hr for springs, 2 hours labor for shocks, $250 springs, $400 socks. u do the math = $1k
then go to realign your wheels, usually the front ones will be way off, I had them use a GM specfic tool to move the control arms so the amber kit ($200) is not needed .. the back wheels were fine.

Thanks for the info. I think I am gonna contact Sam Strano, though.

[wesTXwitesnake05]

thanks man. I haven't seen another T/A with classics either

[djvaly]

I wanna get the same tires, but see if I can find the ZR1 black rims with the silver outline on them, so the car will be totally black and mean ;)

[GatorSS]

Looks great. Another vote here not to drop.

For the track or strip, sure, drop that baby...but for the street, the clearance problems are just too much for me.

[bastien]

It's more like a street car.. she sees the track once in a while. I think I should be ok with a ~1 inch drop.

Thanks guys

[djvaly]

some of the access entries are steep, I see your point. but 99% time I am ok clearing on the highway even some bumps. remember buy the progressive strings one like Eibach, the more you press the more they stiff up and hold well. with new shocks..
I do plan on getting a Miata or S2000 for a regular drive. check out the little 2007 Miatas with hard top convertible under 25k.. there're little go carts to through around the city.. noice :)

[2thousand2]

looks good!!
