    Probably hits the ground with a center. Ha.

    Other way around. He raised his cradle up into the car and raised the strut towers also to retain correct geometry whilst still having a slammed car.

    It is a S13 non-hicas cradle by the looks of it, but with those arms on those angles, its going to be of no great benefit. Its been done before, even here in Australia, anyone else remember "carbon-ae86"?

    The geometry isn't too bad.
    Not ideal but would still work pretty well

    You ever owned a S13? Look at the rear camber arms man, you can only just see them but thats some BIG angle.

    or he could have simply installed it properly and done a decent fucking job of it.

    and if your arms are like that, and your car is that low, it handles like shit. looks cool, no doubt, but handles like shit.
