Ksevnt's drift wags...

[Ksevn-T]

Bought a white 84' Slant wagon off YAZE on this forum. So my ol' Sedan is now gone. The wagon came with a tone of bits including; all panels for flat front conversion, %80 of bits for 4age conversion, oil cooler and more. Hopefuly we will see some progress soon. Will have pics up asap for the build side of things.
Hoping to incorporate some low down boso style. To give you an idea, Here are some examples of what im aiming for it to be based on;

Bit of a teaser before the build thread starts:

Thats red wagon is dope. So are those two white cars. 2door coolness :)

[Ksevn-T]

<3 for 2 doors! Where the styles at!
4 Doors are good if you like carrying people...

[ke70 xx]

true. some cars just dont look right four door. for example r33 4doors. two door is the way to go with a skyline.

[shift_rook]

Alex

[shift_rook]

madness, got some shit happenening, good to see, should catch up soon bro

[stylz]

good stuff man :)
let us know next time you go out for a bust, im always keen ^_^

[Water Boy]

I wouldnt bother shaving the head get a port and poslish before u get a shave! A box and and a diff isnt a bad effort in a week. So I spose bit of dori in Moorabin has been happening :DD

[PLZB-18]

wags looks tops man


(its alex btw saw u outside my mates factory)

just go by there with whatever u need done and he will sort u out cheap

[Ksevn-T]

good stuff man :)
let us know next time you go out for a bust, im always keen ^_^

Always glad to head out for a bust with you stylz! Join Sudoku garage lol!
Moorabbins always a bit of fun, especially my snake run.

Yo Alex ill have to pop by panda garage to get my coilover kit fabbed up, and maybe an exhaust sooner that what i thought. Keybangers = Blown mufflers for sure. The exhaust volume and drone is doing my head in. As long as Shane* makes me a boso pipe straight out under the diff, none of that before the diff dumpy shit!

Alex

[PLZB-18]

ROFL no probs man ill tell him 2morrow 2 stop being the ford driver that he is and do what u ask for, just take it past whenever man just give him a buzz he lives there so he can do it whenever.

i should pop past the sudoku garage one of these days

[marvis]

Do the coilovers already :P

Much involved with coilovers in the rear?

marvis.

[Ksevn-T]

Ill try to have the coilovers done by the 19th for the track day at winton.
Rear coilovers is going to be a fair bit of fab work. Going for the ra60 diff and Will probably cut the rear wheel arches off a sedan with shock mounts and weld them into the wags, since the current shock mounts make the shocks sit on a shitty angle. Then need a tone of reinforcement. Then theres panhard rod mounts and swaybar etc. Bit of work involved!

Also, finding that my nolethane in the front is sitting all funny since im running max castor and 1mm toe out. Anyone else have the same problem?

Alex

[shichi~]

it will do that with maxxed out castor ur talking about ur LCA bushing yeah ?

[Ksevn-T]

Yeah the LCA bushing is bulging out at the side??? Adjustable swaybar?

[julzy]

p.s. alex give us a yell if ya need a hand or tools etc with 4age.

[PLZB-18]

For n00bs like me who is this Sudoku Garage?

ur a n00b? i dont even have an avatar :p

im pretty sure its Ksevn-T and a mate of his garage/factory???

[shift_rook]

isn't sudoku chinese?

[Ksevn-T]

Bushes are in correctly! for some reason still not sitting right. The old rubber bushes sat the same. Though they might pan out, but maybe not. "Sudoku Garage" is a mate and my garage/workshop where we work on our cars etc. and where my car spends half its life lol.

Trusty ol' welded center i broke, after the gearbox:

COME GET THEM! should have called me dude, they're available whenever you want, i'll grab the pedal box out tomorrow, anytime after that feel free to swing by, no i won't catch a train to your house with a pedal box and crossmember:D

[resol]

hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahh ahahaha:thumbup:

[shichi~]

are u gonna remove the rear bar ?

[Ksevn-T]

are u gonna remove the rear bar ?

Yeh, Thought about it. Looks tones lower with the ugly rear bar on though, thats why its still on. Until i can find a thin metal pano bar i think it will stay.

[Ksevn-T]

or maybe he just drives harder then you?

p.s. alex give us a yell if ya need a hand or tools etc with 4age.

[julzy]

ahhhhhhhhhhhh glad i didnt come,

[resol]

yeh thort something might have been a lil worse then it looked. sorry i bailed i ran out of fuel and didnt wanna get stuck in the box soleft to get fuel. when i came back you were gone.

sucks mate,i did the same in my wagon except on the left hand side and bad enough to bend the chassis rail.

she'll buff out, and i hear battle scars increase tuffness. still drive straight?

Wasnt the tyres fault, Im running 186/60/14's with plenty of tread.


bugger man, saw this happen last night, pretty unlucky! hope you can sort it out asap man, need to slide more.

Yeah we'l head out for a slide again really soon! Was a good Ke session last night. You guys did pretty well. Specially at Remington.


What the hell? How long after I left did this happen? And how? That damn 4K powerhouse got the better of you.

EDIT: Its split the garden edging, NOOO.

Probably about 20mins after you left. We were sessioning Williams for about 15-20. Was running low on fuel and cash so i made the mistake of saying just "one more". Thats when i came into the corner with the round about pretty hot and applied the handbrake (which failed) but it still under steered and straight over the round-a-bout and dozed over 3 poles. :(

Damn garden-lip got a bit munched. Ohwel! She'l only get back on the road stronger and better! Is what i always say! Still drivable too i think. Got to go pick up an entire front end off blacktopspirit on this forum.

[Water Boy]

Bummer mate!

Whats the repair bill?

i can weld :cool: . u cant just kick the old one back into place?


-dan

[Ksevn-T]

have you got a welder atm? im just worried about prying the old one off my car, without mashing the crap out of it. The spot welds dont alwats break so easily.

[matt99]

i can weld


-dan



Thats not what your diff said.

[resol]

have the welder at my place right now infact.

-dan

[Ksevn-T]

My diff blew up too! but i didnt weld it :hehe:
Well all i have to do now is remove the existing rad support which means drilling spot welds and prying it from the body. Weldings another issue. What sort of welder is it dan?
