after yesterday's track day i have become hell inspired, begged and pleaded and managed to get 2 weeks off starting december 4th.
4AGE conversion time!!!!
gives me 2 weeks to get it an and running including fuel pump and other fuel related shit, getting an exhaust done, making my seat rail and getting my modplates.
don't know what i'll do on the other 10 days..........
oh and write the tech article i promised all the kiddies looking to do the swap soon.
wheels should arrive this week sometime, have to "adjust" my guards, probably going to have to raise the car a little
Raising FTL....... new wheels FTW........... not that old wheels were shit.....
cheers for dropping that gear off the other day 2 champ...
much appreciated..
new rims look shit, not overly happy with them, meh. also had a bitch of a time getting someone to fit 195/50 tyres on them,. found some one to do it and the put 3 directional tyres on right and 1 on wrong of course, so thats going back tomorrow to be fixed.
the rims came unpainted so they copped the supercheap Matt black in a can treatment. having a shit of a time flaring the rear guards as i refuse to raise the car!! fronts fit awesome only drama being i have to run at max neg camber to get them under the guards
15x8 -4mm + 30mm track increase due to S13 stuff = effectively like running a -34mm 8 innch rim on stock 86 gear, looks good though!!
buying a panel better kit with dolly's and shit tomorrow. didn't want to but it seems unavoidable, i will be bogging the guards and attempting to find a spray can clour match.
keen to see...........
I can see Im going to have some dramas then when my new rims arrive......
I so wish they were flared when I got it reprayed..... didnt have time though... the gaurds are full of bog now so attempting to flare them by hand will see them in a mess.... think its gona be bolt ons FTW and just chop some of the gaurd off......
