ok guys this is my second post for SAU but for those of you that frequent NS.com you may know me as 1ATSXDRFT

anyhow, following on from gumnuts thread about the sedan overfenders i'm looking at bringing them over :blink:

now for it to be economically feasable for myself to do so i will be making copies of these guards and selling them (gonna cost about ~1k to get the originals here)

if this goes ahead the kit will consist of both rear quarters (~+50mm) and a pair of rear door skins and the price will be set at ~600 bucks for the set (dependant on final purchase price, how much work i have to put into them to make them fit nice, cost of laying up moulds, materials etc) and should have some ready in about 3 months time :wave: (damn containers take so long to get here :) )

Whats so funny

Its either we buy them and make copies.

or buy them and paint them white and stick them on my car with no moulds and every four door owner who wants to make there rears wider gets to miss out.

your such a bum head Ryan.

ill take 3!!!

Seriously though Id absolutely love a set, I've been looking for ages and I'm willing to do just about anything to get some (especially if they cover the dents in the back of my car).

None for me... I only buy body parts that are already the right colour and ready to fit :P Nah got no money and got more important things to spend money on, like a bigger turbo... :)

Would love some though, would look sick and cover my damage well too :P, but then dont have the wheels to fill the guards etc etc. :D

I used to think you were kewl. Spacers are your friend. get a nice wide track, makes for easier sliding.

Dont be soft, go wide for your ride or gimmie cash so I can.

does the car have to be ruber back to metal where the urethane goes or will the paint be strong enough to hold?

dont the rivets stick out too much to blend in?

how do they attach to the wheel arch? can the original wheel arches be cut out so the wheels can get right up behind the wide gaurds or are they needed for suport?

sorry for all the questions

to be honest i'm not a panel beater so i wouldn't be able to tell you, i only have limited information that i have gathered from panel beater mates, so i would recommend speaking to someone about fitting them if you are going to do it yourself.

i said rivets because i'm not sure if glue will be enough to hold them there even if you glass them in but as you said they wouldn't sit flush as there are no recesses in the panels to put them - something i might look into putting in?

looking at the pictures, it appears the guards are fixed to the lower section of the arches only which means you can cut out/bash up/whatever you want to do to your existing guards

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
