Thanks mate. I think ill stick with the 3mm
yeah man 6mm mdf. and 'quilting' to wrap. if you want to keep it simple use 3mm. as with the 6mm if i have any hope of getting my window winders off i can't have that clip. so they fall off all the time.
Thanks mate. I think ill stick with the 3mm
well decisions decisions.
with my camber issues its quite annoying. i currently have +2 degrees camber and this is due to the cressida strut and ra60 steering arm combo.
also i've noticed that i can't go much lower without inducing bumpsteer.
so it turns out that RCA's are available.
so on the shopping list for the car will be otomoto kits. coilover conversion + camber tops and RCA's i already have short stroke shock absorbers so yeah...
ergh $680 later. save save save.!
so for now small update.
i've wrapped the back section of that console i made... tis looking good.! i need to plump it out a bit with some foam but the overall look is gonna be insane.
picked up a wiring loom for the 4e so i can start nutting that out.
also picked up a tow bar for the bitch.. bit more rear end stiffness and bike rack for some bmxican riding should be good. gonna powdercoat it to make it look nice!
cheers, Luc
ok so here is a drift car i painted the other wk. couple week b4 hand the dude bent it up pretty bad.
no before pics tho spewin.
anyway here it is in primer.
and in 2 pack the colour is called oyster. turned out pretty good. few runs but they'll jst get buffed.
first time i've done a straight 2 pack job. quite a bit different.
still need to get daytime pics.
and here is the progress on my console.
i'm gonna pull this apart and try a thinner foam to reduce the bulkiness
also finish off some stitching. the handbrake is gonna be the tricky part.
nice work ... having all the resources to do this is fucking awesome. i know how good it feels to be able to just do something... im a mechanic so i do all my mechanical work and i can do wheel alignments & new kumho tyres ... but the body work and interior is where i fall .
keep up the good work ... easily the best one of these ive seen in a very long time!

update for today.. fitted a Brand new pajero MC and the brakes feel really really good now.
also fitted gh sigma LCA's with new balljoints and urethane bushes.
this managed to bring my camber from +2 back to -0.5 degrees..
and my castor from +1.5 to +3 degrees. much happier with the way it performs now.
it performed well before but now its better.
so since me and the missus both own rollas... i decided to do this.
kinda got sick of people parking in the driveway and blocking one of us in.
also installed the baby seat today! looks good nice and neat and you can't even see the clip its all hidden.
nice and secure too.
thats all folks for this car.!
