Throw Some 18's On That B@#$%

yeah slotted helps dissipate the gas build up and improves brake performance but damn they look tiny, lol. you should get like a 12 or 13 inch brake kit, would DEFINITELY stop your car better too (headbang)
They don't exist for 4-luggers.

No s***?

That's retarded........ I wonder how profitable it would be to make a 12 inch brake it for 4 lug applications (as well as 5 and 6 to still make some money)

What's the biggest 4 lug brake kit out there? 10? 8?

Yeah, tell me about it, but I wouldn't give up on this. There just aren't any bolt-on kits out for 4-luggers, that doesn't mean someone can't go out and piece one together and it function properly and safely. I've seen only 2 4-luggers with BBKs, one was custom, the other was from a different make of car but I don't know from what car. So it's not totally hopeless, but it is retarded. It all depends on if the market is there and apparently it's not.

BTW, the biggest 4-lug are stock 9.3" for 1.6 and 10.2" for 1.8/2.0 cross-drilled or slotted.

Well that sucks, besides I think the market would be there if the option was there, cause I see quite a few 4 lugs and a lot of people end up doing a 5 lug conversion
 
Yeah but the 5 lug is pricey unless you can get a donor car for cheap.
 
Very true, but some of the ridiculous things I've seen people do to their car suggests to me they can afford it, lol

Haha. Too true. However, I neither have the time or money to try and get bigger rotors. The ones I have on there now are new like 1.5 years ago.....they are good enough for this guy.
 
One such thing I saw....... and I HAD to say it, I'm sorry

but last night I was at the gas station, my buddy works there, so I crashed there to hang out with him for about an hour and shoot the s***, dude pulls up to get gas in a car I had NO IDEA what it was (the front bumper wasn't stock)

he saw my Mazdaspeed6 and asked my buddy who's car it was, and he pointed to me, and the guy turned and said.... "Nice ride, bro"

I looked at him and said "Thanks, wish I could say the same to you"

He looked like he got a little mad......but come on...... an UGLY ass Scion tC with a front end that makes it look like a bug, and "lambo" door conversion?

That thing did NOT look tasteful.......but hey for $1200 per door ($2400 for 2) you could tell at least he had some money.

oh i didnt no that was u 99pro. i saw u on canada forum. scuzzer must of had u mixed with me. looking nice.

Not sure I follow.....but thanks!
 
tint the front windows and you're set. blacked out corners and headlights would look good sweet.

overall looks great!
 
Law permits front windows to be tinted in Canada, which sucks ass. Blacked out headlights and corners would compliment your car better since you're going with the stealth look. Overall, thumbs up.

Now lets see those fogs!

Haha. Fogs will be installed soon. My wife and I are trying to find a new house to buy right now, so that occupies alot of my time.

As I said before, I wish we could tint our front windows here in Canada. Cops say that they don't like it cause they can't see into cars when they pull them over, and someone may have a gun or something. Good thing for that law though......cause we have tons of guns here in Canada. (eyeballs) It is a stupid law and I am trying to decide if I want to just tint the front windows with like 50% tint or something.

How would I go about getting blacked out headlights? I have always wanted to, but didn't know where to get them.

Don't go the tinting route, a lot of people have problems with it bubbling up from the heat of the lamps......while some don't (i assume they didn't drive the car for 4 days after tinting it)

The best course of action that all my friends use is called VHT Nightshades spray paint.

you can use maybe 2 coats of the paint, and then 1 coat of clear coat when you are finished......... you can put more coats of the paint on, but be advised, the more you put on the darker it gets and the harder for the light to come out of.... my friend put 5 coats on his taillights and the clear coat and in the daytime you can hardly see him braking....

Also be sure to remove the housings when you do it, so you don't spray up your car (shady)

Oh you mean headlights with black housing......... got it, lol (hand)

When someone says "blacked out" I assume they mean tinted or painted .....
