Thumbs up

Come see us over in the ES forum.
So far McElligott is the only ES owner to go all the way with a snail.

There's a good thread about horsepower here too.

I've wanted to go VIP with my ES for the longest time.
Problems:
  • The widest wheel that fits is 8.5
  • Those who make wheels to fit it don't give us much in the way of offsets
  • Any VIP-inspired camber efforts have been thwarted. It's HARD to get ANY camber on this car.
  • I can't even find VIP curtains that work with this car, mainly because of the frameless windows

ES Boy is one of my inspirations (Signature kit):

As are Smitty and Charley240, but they have 3rd gen ESs.

I'll be watching your project with great interest. We'll help wherever we can.
