hey its nice, without doubt

thats some huge dish going on at the rear, thinking (personally) are they perhaps 1/2inch too wide?

just the way the tyres sit on the rims, thats all.

lower it a little (half an inch) and she'll be looking might FiN3

Nah Tangles, she can fit at least 245 or 255 on the rears as they are 9.5 wide, but they tyres are streached over as they are 225s, Tis what mine are like also!

yeah like deluxe said, i could fit wider tyres, but i left it upto Joe at wheelworx to fit what he thought was best. With these tyres they dont sit out the guards as much.

Yep gonna lower her just a little, cant go too low or i wont get it in my driveway. I have enough trouble now as it is!

Angles are your friend...........

My front bar scrapes everytime i come and go from my joint, twice a day at least! I have put down steel sheets but it still scrapes......Meh all is good, nothing a little fibreglass wont fix!

well up until about a month ago, i use to park in my neighbours driveway every night, and out the front of my house during the day. Then he decided to sell and move so i was forced to learn to get into my driveway. Getting in is easy now.. but reversing out is fun, it requires going forward and back a few times to get more and more angle. Seeing as though the front bar has been painted twice now since ive had it, i dont wanna chip or scrape the paint lol

Its not that my cars that low, its just that my driveway sucks!

I know all about angles on drive ways I use to have to use my neighbours drive way to get to my house and go over there lawn until they got mad and started blocking it with cars :laugh: lol

But I learnt pretty quick the massive angles that I needed to take to get up and down and blocks of wood are my friends :(

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
