Still no front tyres. So no front wheels on :(

Ganador Super Mirrors arrived. Not fitted or painted yet though.

Going to lower it 10mm ish or maybe more too.

So heres another pretty picture in the meantime -


Jord

Ganadors on! Hurray. Front tyres next weekend I hope. iTS KILLING ME :(

car looks sweet.
are you running all that rear camber to fit the wheels? or it just because you\'ve lowered it so much?

Theres nothing been changed underneath, I guess its just cambered up because of the lowering. Which has helped with the wheel fitting. I would like to be able to skid this in the wet so no point in going for full contact patch on 255s :D

Im running 255\'s of my turbo fc and ive lowered allot resulting in my tires lasting a month lol.Ive recently fitted a camber arm to my subframe which has increased some of the foot print for the tyres but still spins happily enough lol :)

Jord

I have no cheating turbo though, plus my wheels kinda stick out a bit so running less camber isn\'t really an option.

Plus I love the cambered look. :D

Just got back form Japfest. My POS FC was parked next to £100k\'s of drift cars and was getting a surprising amount of attention all day!

I\'m a little annoyed at staying up late and drinking, thus missing Japfest, but I\'m sure I\'ll make up for it soon!

I\'ve got 225/45\'s on the rear of my TII and it doesn\'t spin up that easily! Car feels very torqueless, but is still pretty damn quick when it gets going/comes on boost. I\'m no amateur at drifting either, have done a fair amount, so I\'m not sure what it is!

dthebuk

adam where did you get the camber bar?

ben do you know what boost you\'re running? my car had plenty of power with that exhaust. Though the rear wheels did seem pretty damn grippy when you took me out

So I was driving home yesterday and heard this weird noise on the dual carriage way.
 

 
Seems the front lip had slipped down slightly as I must have caught it on something.
 
However it looks awesome so I\'m going to lower the front about 10mm more [sitting on 215/40 at the front now so its dropped a bit anyway.
 
People keep saying I need sideskirts, I\'m really undecided. I know I want to put the interior back in though, ideally need to find a TII complete interior!

You got the SSR\'s on each corner now?!

Jord

Yeah, got the 17s on the front on Monday. Fronts are silver face and rears are black face at the moment though, can\'t decide which i prefer although I\'m swaying for silver face.

mattfduk

Have you got any pictures of it with the SSR\'s all round? Had a look at it parked up at JTS, the SSR\'s really suit it :)

papercutout

I had a look at JTS too :D


Which interior parts do you need? I\'ve got really nice condition leather seats from the cab I\'ll be selling (better nick than initial J\'s, and slightly cheaper), and could be selling a few other bits too depending on what you want? Not doorcards though :p
If it was doorcards you wanted - I pointed you towards someone giving some away! I don\'t know whether you got in contact with him though. They\'ve been binned now to my knowledge.

Jord

I have the full interior from the EGI but it kinda sucks. So basically I need rear seats, front seats and front S5 doorcards. Might leave the carpet out as its a PITA putting that back in. I don\'t really want leather, cloth would be perfect.
 
I was too late for those doorcards :(
 
I\'ll take some better pics once I\'ve cleaned it this weekend :)
