  1. This is a running joke with my mates actually, that I'm a drifter. I hate flat brim caps, not a fan of drifting/drifters and at the last event I did a little slide and managed to not f**k it up so now I'm a drifter apparently lol The drifting community, the bad elements, ruined a lot of what was good about the JDM "scene" if you want to call it that. Also gutted the prices for cars/parts (good and bad depending if you're buying/selling) and was far too representative of the dumbass yolo concept. I've found some of them are OK, and funnily enough the ones that are usually grip drive also. I do love me some rice, but I'm fairly anti drift/drifters. It's the only "motorsport" that's judged by anything other than measurable numbers. I fully admit there's lots of skill in doing it well and that I do not have, nor will ever have, nor want, that skill, but I can appreciate it when I see it.
  2. The paint will be cracked in this process and the wheels will sit outside of the guards.... #stancenation #jetpilot #driftlyfe etc
  3. Solid return on that investment.
  4. My condolences for the lose of your loved one
  5. Looked at some pics over the weekend and think I prefer to look of rolled/flared guards vs bolt on flares. Spoke to panel beater and he said we can easily pull/flare enough to get the coverage but expect the paint to crack, as Hadouken said. Given I wouldn't mind painting it later anyway and the rest of the car is already covered in blemishes, I will probs go that way.
  6. They look massive 0_0 Fingers crossed for good lap times.
  7. Same size as mine? You'll get to try them before I do, hopefully they're a good thing.
  8. Stop posting pics until you can do it properly lol Good luck with the stones
  9. Well that makes perfect sense. Wtf?
  10. Jesus. since when do you suck at forums. Fixed.
  11. Engine bay photo thanks.
  12. I did look at clips of that on youtube, looked surprisingly effective lol
  13. Just a lazy 5600+rwkw! What turbo did you end up with? Must be insane to drive Looking mad is worth heaps more dude I just dont want massive flares on wheels that only just sit outside the guards, will look homo. Yeah I'm only running 9" and 255. I kind just need a 20mm flare which is hard to find as that's usually bolt on overfender territory which i don't like.
  14. Hey mate, Long time no see How is your project coming along?
  15. Yeah it's not quite as bad as I thought. I'm flat out with work and home stuff but I'll try and line up my panel beater to come take a look and see if a guard flare will be enough. I can get a guard roller easily. A small bolt on flares could be easier, and maybe look cool? I can only find big bolt ons, like 40mm.
  16. Given the amount of shit he has copped, I hope nobody gets a ride lol
  17. I didn't say you were, I said it might make you feel better (than you are currently). So you can go from happy to stoked, or indifferent to slightly bemused. I'm just here to help
  18. I got some new tyres if that makes you feel better?
  19. So, car looks fat now, I love it. I put a vote to my mates and the consensus seems to be centre caps yes, stickers no, which I'm inclined to agree with, though there is something I like about no caps. Guard flaring required looks less dramatic when i put the rim back to -3.5 camber, but I still want clearance to be able to lower the camber for tuning purposes. That will be the next step. Inner clearance is less than a finger width, but I can't see the tyre moving around that much? Inner guard plastics are going to get gobbled up a little and the passenger side has my BOV and a vac hose that's at risk, I might have to drop a little castor out.
  20. Have had a shitful cold all last week and given what's on my agenda this week, I spent most of the weekend specifically dedicated to trying to kick it. Didn't get a heap done on the car but did manage to get the splitter to a point where I'm happy. Ran some M8 all thread down through the inner guards and lined up with the existing holes in the bottom of the guards and into the splitter. Seems a lot firmer now. Added some little gurney flaps on each side, see if that helps at all. I'll try and get stuck into the wheels a bit more this week.
  21. Cheers. My only concern was that I sit fairly upright so wanted to get the right angle.
  22. Oh and don't forget that is a purely e85 result, not 98.
