RSR springs and shortened shocks, guy who i bought them from said that the car should sit around 80mm of the ground on stock 15s.

maan sentia is like the worst car to work on.it took us 5 hours to put front ones in.
so tomorrow going to do rears.i took it for a spin,ride is much stiffer.its about 80-90mm of the ground but will get proper measurements tomorrow.

Nice. I see some TA styling cues in the HE like the radiator grille and wheels. Those wheels in a 16" size look just like the early Millenia S / Eunos 800M wheels and some of the interior pieces look more familiar compared to an HD. Some Millenia owners with Eibach lowering springs would ache for a setup like that. That is crazy low. Any pics from the rear of the car?

those are 15's.

well as you know i always had euroline dh on my sentias soi guess im going for another set of them.but in 19's and correct offsets.now since my car is lowered i can measure up what offsets will fit.

here is pic from the rear
i will get some decent pics later


i am happy with the drop but i think rear needs to be dropped another 20mm.
when i get mags, then i will know if i need to drp it or not.really want to achieve vip stance

Try to find some chrome stealth bulbs for the turn signals. It'll look really clean with them. Maybe some spacer until you get the new wheels b/c it looks a little funky now; lowered w/ stock wheels/offset=

Oh and an nice 2-way alarm would be nice so this one does end up like your white one.

if i want spacer i will require to get a certification as they are illegal otherwise.
i will be getting 5 star alarm in the future but not now.
white sentia never got stolen, it was da black HD and i got carjacked so alarm wouldnt help
plus where i live i dont have to worry about it.plus my car is registered at completely different address to where i live.

i get the bulbs when i get new 8500k bulbs.
but at the moment priorities are to get mags, then all those little bits and pieces to make it perfect.

cheers
