J-Specs got an original Kakimoto Widebody R33... seems like all the others are kit versions, coz they don't have the original rear wing... also the original one is pure alloy (welded with the original guards), wheras the kits are fibreglass bogged in to match.

Their one's in brissy atm I think being prepped for the next autosalon (its gonna be their showcar).

It handles amazingly well considering its got 12" wide rims at the back n 10" at the front.

And yeah, the wing on that car is like the most highly sought after part of the kit, coz there's no replica's of it, only originals.

Once the boys are done with it, it should win at least a couple of trophies. Next time it won't have any stickers coz they feel it'll ruin the paintjob. But all other details are hush hush. n maybe this time they'll make sure that the seats are attached so when sum1 tries to sleep in the car they don't fall over :) *hint hint*

Wallystyles, where did you pick that car up from? I remember recently seeing Streetmachines had one for a short time, never saw it or a pic though.

Yeah the red and yellow cars are the skyline imports version. They also had a white one but sold it.

Funky, it wasn't Craig, this guy stole the car ... and i followed him.....Zoidberg was there also.... :P :zap:

Hahahaha! Good one!

That car must have a 1150mm spacers on the front to "accomodate" those FWD offset rims...:D

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
