My new/old EB

Postby ELXR_96 » December 22nd, 2009, 12:55 pm

I recently parted with my EL XR6 to downgrade to what i always wanted. Picked this up for $2,300 and it's close enough to what i want so i love it. Have a couple of small dents the usual but is in what i think is excellent condition for it's age. It's a 1 owner GLi with a high 271,000ks but came from a family. Serviced every 5 thou etc. Runs great. Looks great. Can't be happier except the auto. Just to tempted with a manual in enough trouble as is. It's loered on Super lows in the front with stock shocks. I fitted Ultra's in the rear with GT Monroe shocks but it's still not low enough for me. It's BA xr6 17" Rims and tinted windows. Interior is excellent except my Wendies smoothie addiction the whole floor is literally seat high with empties lol.

I changed my mind and decided to wait till i have some money to buy some new front shocks and springs then chop the back so it's not stupidly low in the ass compared to front.
Also sick of my rims, Wanna downgrade to some 16s. I'm real keen on a set FTRs. The 17s are just i dunno annoying me... anyone interested in buying these? probably 80% tread on front. Needs new rears but are ok, the outside are scrubbed from a front dodgy wheel alignment ages ago
That's it on ultras in the rear today. 17s are jsut an odd size
