Hey guys,

Totally off stagea topic but i am the new ower of a holden frontera. It was my sister and her husbands but smashed the front end in an accident so i purchased it for the total of 1 months car payment....BARGIN lol. Im also planning to purchase a 260z 2+2 later on down the track or a cheap 180 for a track car and something for me and my 2 sons to work on (they are only young but a good skill to know). The frontera was planned to be the tow vehicle for this future track car.

Now i just got to source a front cut depending on damage. Doesnt look too bad and is repareable

Glad you did not say "I bought a Jeep".

Is that because it requires two morons volleying the same phrase back and forth in case everyone watching has an IQ similar to theirs?

Spent the day stripping the front end. After hours off bloody knuckles this is where I have gotten too. Just got to cut away 1/2 off each fender and bottom radiator support and im ready to source a front cut as engine has a few visible leaks

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
