JIC suspension (I can lower it more if I want)
Window tint @ low 20% if I recall



I like what you did to the car. This would be how I would want to do mine for now. How many inches did you lower the front and back?

How much for the tail and wheels? Does the tail still go up? Sorry for too much questions.

I'm on a quest to mod my ride and want to do it right. Thanks again guys!
The wing is like $2,300 from Ruf. The wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport tires will be 7-8k depending on the finish you select. You can lower it for a more tucked look. The city I live in will destroy my car if I go any lower. I may do it anyway.

P.S. The wing does go up and down.

Is your car at the stock height? It looks lowered in the pictures, but could be an illision since it is black.

By the way, I love the 841Rs on your car. I had them on my NSX as well.

I have wondered the same thing. The car was used when I bought it and sits a little lower when it's next to others. I think the black helps hide the height as well. I love the 841's too.

The front is a little bit lower than the rear only because I wanted a 1 deg forward rake. I can go lower, however, if I want. The JICs have a separate height adjustment perch. I have about 1" of clearance between the wheel arch and the tire on the fronts and about 1.2" of clearance in the rear. It isn't GT2 low, but it is a drastic change over stock.

How is the ride? Right now with stock it is already hitting hard on bumps.

Honestly, the ride with the JICs is incredible. I have the 7kg/10kg setup. Of course, the 10kg/12kg setup will be more harsh as will the 12kg/16kg.

It isn't harsh at all. It "feels" more connected with the road. More like how it should have come from the factory. This is even with 19" wheels if you can believe that. I have NO complaints.
