Gilly's Hachi. WRECKING MID FEBRUARY

[Jonny Rochester]

ummm getting bolt ons.

drove the car today for an extended period of time, and don't like it. running max camber has made the front end hell twitchy and i don't have the front end grip i used to have due to there not being as much tyre on the road + i have not such a big track difference front to rear as before.

in order to run less camber i need to raise the car at the front, which means i have to raise the rear to level it out.

NOT HAPPENING

J blood knock off bolt on flares look the go. i remember seeing them on Henry's 86 (silent drifter) a while back and they look really nice, ithink option 1's old blue hachi uses them too. should look a little neater than mismatched paint on the flared sections. just cut out the guards as much as needed and the flares hide all the nastiness.

aiming to get them early next week if in stock as the guards at present are disgusting, all bent up out of the way to stop them touching the tyres

smooth paint reduces drag.

there.... now go get 'er painted.






anyway, car is looking tops. pity you had to cut the guards though.

Hey Gilly,

I am going down the bolt on route also, have you got some pics or links to the said flares? Are they bolt on front and rears or entire guards...? ANy idea on the flare amount?

Keen as mate.

$160 through 999 automotive ,as Niz said earlier don't know about the quality but i'm hoping to check them out earlier in the week.

the coupe gives you an idea of how wide they are. i'll be painting mine as close as i can get to body colour, like on Henry's old car (yellow one)

They don't quite have that ADM clean-ness you're so good at pulling off but it's functional so I'll let that one slide

[DRFT - 86]

Im keen to hear how they go....... quality and fitment wise as I will no doubt be looking at a set myself in the coming weeks.......
hell keen to see how you rims actually sit now though..... awaiting fresh pics...

[Gilly]

new pics as requested.

bolt ons coming soon, as stated above want to run less neg camber and get the rear guards off the tyres.

The flared out section of the rear guards will be cut off and the 2 skins rejoined back together when the bolt ons are fitted. at present you drive over an ant and the tyres mash the guards. you can see where some kind sir decided to run a key down the side or the car. and you can see my "proudly ADM" bear...........

want less camber (back to -2* need to do something about the bumper touching rims too.......

photos aren't the best sorry. click on them and you can enlarge them to full size which is a bit better. i'm actually happy with the wheels now.

not getting 999 flares now as they have none in stock. found some through another source though, hopefully fitting them up tomorrow
