    Motor in


    Exhaust:



    Mx73 box x member modded.

    Literally just slotted the original holes, welded in 2.5mm washers, mounted on the furthers mounting points on the mx73 (has about 8 holes)



    10mm spacer plate for under gearbox rubber mount - needed to get the tail shaft alignment right

    People just don't get it Ben, to make a light wheel it must be a thin wheel, the material has to be very stiff, so it obviously more brittle you could say.

    Rota haters are just stupid!
    Yates ran rotors and still runs Chinese wheels, heaps of drift guys do, they are the real drivers..
    You don't see real drifters running around on a 3k set of wheels do you?

    I see plenty of drifters on expensive wheels.

    If you hit the floor up a little you can get the exhaust above rails.

    Need a aftermarket dump too, stock ones are horrible!

    Good find! Interior looks mint.

    My rear skidders were 1200 for the pair lol but I would run rotas any day, they just don't sell anything that fits my needs, car is looking great man, exhaust looks decent, as marvie said, try and get it up above the rails, you will thank us later

    Exhaust has about 5mm clearance all the way through, and.... It's all above the rails!
    That's why I went with snail bends, you can get everything in prime position.

    Here are pics of the busted watanabe





    And more exhaust pics:

    Factory dump is alright, I've seen worse.

    I've made the system to meet the factory dump.

    I'll grab a tomei dump later on, bolt it up... Sweeeet
