Silver IX MR + RobiSpec KWs + CE28Ns + JDM Rump + GReddy Ti

Just a little shoot after the suspension and wheels were put on. The car weighed in at 3145, full-weight at Robi's shop. Robi was surprised by the weight. He had just finished up a GSR that weighed in a tad over 3,300 and said I had a really light MR. I have the ugraded aluminum OEM strut braces, the rear beam is removed for the JDM bumper, and the GReddy Ti saved a bit, but it doesn't add up with what the spec weight is supposed to be, according to Mitsu. This was with the stock BBS wheels. I don't think the Volks make much of a difference in weight. The CEs are 18 x 8.5, +30 with 235/40 Advan Neovas. The finish is Titanium Gunmetal.

A huge thanks goes out to Robi for setting the car up! Enjoy the pics!!!

well the million dollar question how does it handle?

we cant tell the difference between cut springs and robi spec in pics, we just see its lower

my friend is thinking about droppin 4k into this same stuff, i told him he should just buy R compound tires, or actually go to a auto-x or road course event before he decides to do that, but hes SET that hes already out driving the stock suspension and needs to drop 4k on the robi-spec suspension.

enjoy my bold testing

Simply amazing. By far the best looking silver IX so far. Flawless, except maybe you might want a lip? Either way the car is super clean with the perfect drop and perfect color choice for your rims.

Are you serious?

His evo is nice man. Not sure what your definition of RICE is, but that's not it.
