Toucan Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 Awesome man, what a good cunt for doing so much cool work on so many cool cars. Respect +10 Quote
kpr Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 bad ass. the inlet runners, are you going to trim a section of the tube out. to taper them down to the inlet ports? Quote
cute wee gem Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 They're going to be a bit shorter than that so I don't think it will be worth the effort, I'll be doing it like you said for the gem though Edit: Oh and the ports are only 2mm smaller than the TB flange so I'll just grind a bit out to match them.

cute wee gem Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 114.3 So easy to find decent wheels Love it! Full StopMiss my one now That thing was so awesome, I decided the 4 doors could be badass too after seeing yours While on that note, what springs/shocks did you use in the end? I've put the rears in the front but don't know how much lower it'll be till the engines in and I have chopped piazza front springs in the rear for now. I need to sort some shocks out to suit. Cheers for the comments Quote
lowlancer Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 SO MEAN I vote leave the paint crappy for a bit Quote
macabre Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 be choice havin those wheels tucking like that, front has bigger arches aye so u will be able to turn still? Quote

Yeah should be sweet. they're going to be a bit more problematic than the rear I'd say. The inside could hit the sharp edge on the bumpstop mount, though nothing a grinder & welder can't fix I guess. may need to pull guards slightly too. It might solve some problems with lowering the front though as I could sit them higher. Quote
cute wee gem Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 wheels look HUGE lols Just means I'll have to run less tire Quote
thminiman Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 next time i roll palmy, which shouldnt be too far away, im coming to look at this shit Quote
cute wee gem Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Also looking into chopping out the top wishbone mount (the round pieces with bolts coming out of them in the rust pictures) and moving them inwards to gain at least neutral and hopefully some negative camber in the front, but i don't want to fuck up the geometry. I don't see a problem with it though, one side is shimmed for like +3deg and other has no shims and is about +1deg Quote
mikuni Posted August 9, 2008 Posted August 9, 2008 That engines looking real tidy in there bro. Awesome stuff. This is a mean project to watch and you seem to be making good progress too. Whats the intake tubes made from? Are you going to stick with that material or is it just to dummy it all up? Quote
