So I Went To Roll My Arches Today To Fit My Fat Rims... Wanna See My Rust?


Recommended Posts

So, a picture says a thousand words, so here it is.

As you can (hopefully) see is I've got a little bit of an old repair thats shown up when we rolled the guards. When I say shown up, I mean the whole arch has fallen apart. THis is in essence a track car (with some daily stuff). So, I was thinking of just cutting the arches out and adding some torana style bolt on flares (I know that are not to everyones tastes, however they'll fix the issues nicely).. and I had a tori for ages. I only want something thats 20 - 25mm..

THe usual searches have churned out some outdated links.... Does anyone know where I can source some??

not as bad as i expected to see actually. get rid of that bog and you will go faster on the track :P

but seriously if you want something bolt-on i saw some bolt ons for an R33 on Ebay, kinda like the 400R ones. but i just looked and i cant find em again sry :(

Thanks heaps guys but I got a hold of just jap who had a carbon set in stock - really helpful :)

Being a paid-up member, did you ask for discount? Darron's back from Hols.

I had to return the flares as they were just asthetic, didn't actually open up any room for my wheels.

So, its cutting and glassing I'm afraid. Pics to come :)

    • I'm not a big fan of the Cometic gaskets either, as above the head and deck need to be like a mirror (can't remember the RA) so Kamieri sounds like a good idea.  FWIW a mate of mine hordes old motor stuff and has some blank unground Nizmo cams for one of these in his supply if random shit if you're interested. 
    • This is aem disk setting in aem tuner and still 180 dgree off or ignition on exhaust cycle is it from cas it self as cas seems wouldn’t fit in cam shaft if wrong position and wiring been verified any ideas 
    • Oh yeah that would work excellent. Should be the same diff housing & everything. Shoot me a text or call me 260-750-2246 -Cody 
    • Oh right, I didn't realise it was your car. Please do! Makes me feel better about mine. I also have a big scrape on the front left bumper where someone presumably used the wall to guide the car into a parking spot  But somehow all the funds go towards mechanical things and the cosmetics stay forever unfinished... Interesting, I don't think I have seen it before. But after seeing @PranK's rusty roofline on the BMW I'd probably leave it alone. Wouldn't want water to get in there.
    • Thanks mate, thought you might know the answer.
