This conversion is such a b*tch to do. There are a lot of components where you needs to be replaced and modified.

It's almost done so more pics will be posted soon.

I was just thinking that. It looks the same to me but I also drive GD3

AJ PwR Jr. 09-22-2009 10:25 PM

Just an estimate, the front end is about 7-8 inches shorter and the rear is about 2-3 inches shorter s the difference is very noticeable.

looks really good, I hope when you put the LE's back on they no longer have a polished lip. It was killing it.

qbmurderer13 09-23-2009 12:07 PM

Am I the only one that hates the JDM front and rear? So short and stubby. Love the wheels though...
