My RB26 powered JZX81 Chaser - Page 57 - Drifting forum

Stavros · 30-06-2008, 17:56

Yup, TWO rear spoilers

Oh, just realised, even the standard rev limit on an RB26 is 8250rpm, and that works out to an awesome 209mph even on 225/40s!

That tells me I have been doing some comedy speeds on the motorway without even realising as my speedo is broke

Best get that big turbo on ASAP...

JackMcIntyre · 30-06-2008, 20:35

Give us a tease of your spoilers if you dare Stav! I think I deserve it having just spent about an hour reading through the whole thread.

Stavros · 30-06-2008, 21:50

Well, I had 2 spoilers waiting for me when I got in from work, but now I have one

As I brutally massacred two rare 1970s racing car spoilers to create one that fits a big ol Chaser...

Big Gay Wings are gay. Fact.
Copying every other fricker and not using your imagination is gay. Fact.
So I thought as ive been covered in filler and fibreglass for the last month anyhow I may as well knock myself up a spoiler I like.

I like Nascar/Boso/70s race cars, and the car looks like its from the 70s anyhow, and only people who did anything like that really thats off the shelf for anything was the Rocket Bunny stuff for Silvias, which is awesomeomeomeomeome, but rare/expensive, and for Silvias, so no good for me.

Nascararar-

RocketBunny/6666Customs-

But in the 70s a fair few racers had this style, but finding these spoilers still was no easy task, but I managed it.

I had a feeling theyd be too narrow, and they was, by about 2 inches, so chopped two, and with much fibreglass love this evening, made this...

Its pretty fricking big too, as expected, bigger than the ones on the Silvia above, which is nice.

Its 7inches tall!

Needs a bit of work both ends to sit flush with the bootlid, but even with no mods it sits flush 3/4 of the way along the back, and all the way along the front.

LiGhTnInG · 30-06-2008, 21:57

Please don't fit that to your car

Each to their own I suppose.

Dex · 30-06-2008, 21:57

pics of it @ chaser!

MTW · 30-06-2008, 21:58

nice work squire, those rocket bunny spoilers look more than delightfull, should look the nuts.

edit: as long as its riveted on.

Stavros · 30-06-2008, 22:05

MTM- Of course its gonne be riveted on mate, as is my bonnet vent, rivets look mint, blending is for fannys.

Looked odd till i quickly popped the rear bumper back on, then made total sense, as i knew it would

I think youd like it

Kinda think the car needs to be lower though with that on, need some 16s

Dori Mat · 30-06-2008, 22:32

i like that

then again i love the rocket bunny cars

hmm chaser would look mint white

Stavros · 30-06-2008, 22:39

You know, white is an option. White or black. I like both.

This is what the spoiler looks like on a Mk1 Escort!

Keefe · 30-06-2008, 22:45

That is the bomb! Nice one for doing something different, and going about it differently too

I think once thats on your car needs the full Glossy black VIP WIP treatment. With gold flakes for added porno 'tache points.

Alex B · 30-06-2008, 22:47

Similar style spoiler as fitted to many standard cars too isn't it? MK1 RS3.1 Capri, '70s Trans Ams etc, I actually like them on the right styled cars.

JackMcIntyre · 01-07-2008, 00:15

I'm going to try and make what it will look like using something simple that we can all see easily (and that i'm quite good at).

Pixelcars!

Will be back either in half an hour or tomorow morning, depending on if i fall asleep.

MTW · 01-07-2008, 00:22

yea spoiler is definatly gonna look mint......you goin for a full on respray? i reckon something like audi nimbus grey, or gunmetal with the wheels blacked would look pretty sexual, you goin for sensible? or straight pimpin again?

JackMcIntyre · 01-07-2008, 01:14

Here's the progress on the Pixelcar:

To do:
-Fix colour
-Add more detail
-Add new wing

Hope you like it.

Change the rear lights, its got Mk2 rear lights but a Chaser front

Looks cool as frick tho, almost makes me wanna keep it purple, lol

George NeTv09 · 01-07-2008, 11:35

dude get us some photos, you have changed some bodyparts and we haven't seen nothing and i'm sure everyone would like to see

!

JackMcIntyre · 01-07-2008, 11:43

I've done a new version and fixed your old one. Bottom version is just me playing around with ideas and showing you how awesome your car could look.

Stavros · 01-07-2008, 19:30

Found something VERY odd a minute ago...

I thought all X81 bodyshells are the same, but clearly not!

The GX81 Chaser bootlid is about 2cm wider than the JZX81 Mark2 bootlid on my car??

I thought id use the GX's one to trial fit the spoiler, etc etc, but the bootlids wider so it dont fit right.

Bloody cars...

Top pic is really good, really does look like my car, nice work.

Hammond · 01-07-2008, 19:41

badass car, i want it!

Stavros · 01-07-2008, 21:30

Sorry about having 20 pics of it, but quickly put it on with gaffa tape, what you think?
Yay or nay?
Looks good without it, but looks good with it too, esp considering the spoiler is the wrong colour at mo and the back bumper is only half repaired from some minor street incidents, lol...

Also found this old DTM style front splitter lying around too, wonder if i should fit that to the front bumper...?
