johnloves850's Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Ardmore, ey? I got the police called on me whilst directing traffic in my HazMat suit and full face respirator on a job site in Ardmore. I work in Norristown, technically "East Norriton." Clean car though.

In the past its been mentioned that there's a fuse you can pull to disable receiving a code from the missing 4C components, but no mention of which one.

andyb5 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Wagon looks good, should be interesting to watch where you take it from here In the its been mentioned that there's a fuse you can pull to disable receiving a code from the missing 4C components, but no mention of which one. No need to pull fuses to simply lower the car, you just need lowering springs. Evolve/Elevate lowering springs offer the most drop (~2") and the worst ride, TMEs offer the least drop (~1") and the best ride. Eibachs are the "in between" option, and are pretty popular on SS R Forum. After lowering, you'll need a SUM calibration to keep the headlights working proper and other fun stuff, but yeah. Once you get into deleting the 4C shocks, thats when you start messing with electronic foolers etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Shadow Posted June 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Wrong transmission, right color, right amount of wagony-ness. tough to find a 05+ VR in m66 flavor for a decent price with the right color combo. just wait till you are in the market for one! You will want a 05+, the 04's have the ugly dash, the unpainted trims, and the ugly tails example: 05 M66 120K needs clutch and other work $11k erie pa 04 m66 95k dealer in seattle $14k 04 m66 140k new hampshire $13k 06 M66 135k PA $14k Mine 05 auto 150k with stacks of reciepts almost 1/2 of the cheapest m66 listed above you get the idea Looks good! What LEDs did you use? where? i have 14 different areas that have various different LEDs from 9 SMD panels, to 20 SMD LED strips that i use on my plate lights and front foot well ones Wagon looks good, should be interesting to watch where you take it from here No need to pull fuses to simply lower the car, you just need lowering springs.
