MODS, please move if needed, I wasn't too sure where to post this build up...
hey guys.
gonna show you our updates as there is major works goin on with the car atm..
First up. Primal private drift day at calder park took its toll on the car. Finally the gearbox decided to break..
Doing limiter launches off the line and going throu the gears wheel spining, put the box on edge. A few too many times and second said goodbye.
I finished out the day using 1st to 3rd, which was still awsome fun. By the end of the night the box was making some seriously funky noises...
Ok, well since that happended and id have the engine and gearbox out. before anything, i made a list on the windscreen.
Withing not even 10mins this is what the list was....
This is the wide body i first took to try on....
This wide body looked good. but the rear wheels were simply not big enough to fill the 100mm wider over fender.
so off they came and bak to the drawing board i went...
In the mean time i got goin with the angle grinder ;-)
The whole point of the wide body option was to be able to straighten out the camber. My aim was for a straight zero camber setting. After cutting the guard out, i towed to car to the alingners and the most we could get out of the camber arms was 0.5 degrees. I was happy with that, considering i used to run 2 degrees. with a 0.5 positive toe.
Then yesterday i went for a drive down to Viva Garage in Mordialic. Picked up some 50mm wide body rear guards.
I think this setup is alot cleaner and sleeker look. Still makes the car mega agressive but still gives me the fitment im alfter
Well thats the updates atm.. There are lots more to come as the car is undergoing major changes..
enjoy!!
