Good lord that is sick. Rear camber is crazy! I really like those caps for some reason...

Very nice 6! Gold centers on a white car always seem to fit but I may be a little biased.;)

Don't want to sound like an ass but not feeling the excessive rear camber. A little more than normal can look hot, but too much starts to look like there is really something broken (as your thread title states). Looks like you have room to pull your rear fenders and take some of that camber out.

Take it for what it is...just an opinion.

Damn E, it's really coming together. Love the caps you made for the ARE's.

That looks really ace.

My suggestions:

-Less camber in the rear
-More camber in the front
-Get some real center caps, those look weird

Beautiful 6. I love the gold on white. I agree though on the center caps!

center caps just dont have logos yet, but i like flat caps, so they will probably stay

Car looks awesome, I say just a TAD bit lower in the front, and you have perfection.

Elliott, do you by chance know your oil pan clearance? It looks like you may have even less than I do.

no i think i have way more clearance, my pan sits a tad bit above the subframe. my tow hooks on the subframe sit the lowest in the front of the car right now.

i noticed in one of your shots that your pan looks to be very low, see where it sits in relation to your subframe, im curious :)

Quite a bit lower than the subframe. I measured last week when I was patching it, I have 1 and 9/16" clearance on unsettled suspension and noone in the car, so 1 1/2" driving if we assume me in the car plus settling gains 1/16 of an inch.

Quite a bit lower than the subframe. I measured last week when I was patching it, I have 1 and 9/16" clearance on unsettled suspension and noone in the car, so 1 1/2" driving if we assume me in the car plus settling gains 1/16 of an inch.

yeah, you might have blown motor mounts, have you tried shimming them yet?

ill take a pic of mine for you today or tomorrow, you will cry with how much clearance i have, i need to go wayyyyy lower :D

Universal bumpers aren't as bad as the earlier US ones, but damn. Nothing will ever beat Euros...

Elliot, I am the dude from WL with the Jag... when I saw the car did it not have side mirrors?
M.Burroughs
06-09-2009, 01:14 AM
Hah, no mirrors, just realized- that's what is throwin' me off. I think I like it though.

I hope the tint disappears some day. :shifty
