That dash wouldn't be hard to replicate poit. I personally wouldn't give up my factory dash for that, but that's me. To make that in 1-1.6 mm ally sheet would be fairly easy, weekend job tops. Looks to be just satin black, few hole saw bits to match ur gauge sizes etc. looks NASCAR spec

yeah I think I should just tidy up my stock dash and leave it, take the heater core and AC out too, seeing as they're not hooked up...

I need to make some door cards more than anything!

I've been fooling around with the 33 and took some pics to share.

So I thought I had a pretty major problem when at symmons plains I was getting some SERIOUSLY bad vibe through the wheel\car when going faster than 90kph. I was like the f**k my car is going to fall apart.

I was pretty convinced that something was seriously a miss with the passenger side front suspension\bearings, something was not right. I pulled it all down and low to behold, it was all brand new, it wasn't till I was putting the wheel back on that I discovered the massive flat spot on the tyre -_- FAIL

Then I painted and fitted my new wheels, they're Rays SS7 18x9.5 +38 but to get them to fit I had to install a 15mm bolt on spacer as they fouled on the upper wishbone(?) when on full lock now it clears by about 1mm. They were gold but now they're Matte black, and I'm thinking of painting the lip red to match my lensos and break it up a little. The tyres are Dunlop D03Gs in a medium Compound, 245\40\18 for the front and 265\35\18 on the back.

I'm pretty sad about my Drift Teks getting so f**ked up after my little spill at Symmons :( Those rocks hurt!!

I also put in a passenger seat for the Charity Rides day in a few weeks :)

I also fitted some new brake pads, Hawk DTC-60 should pull the while whale up nicely :)

Hey Pete if you didn't already know its really easy to add a stripe to the wheels. You can either buy some red pin stripe or cut a pice out of vynal. It can just be a strait pice. As you put it on the wheel it will flex as such and turn a strait line into a curved line. So no need to paint it or cut out round stripes. I have done this neumerous times to wheels on a race car I used to look after.

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me  
    • That's my life. Past-Duncan has a lot to answer for
    • Yep four point harness. Mounted to a bolted in brace running behind the seats. Dont use it for daily driving tbh but good to have for when its needed plus it looks cool.
