Stavros · 19-09-2007, 14:33

extreme wanking, proper pulling the head off it, lol.

Nelo · 19-09-2007, 14:37

pulling the stomach off yerself boy!

Nelo · 19-09-2007, 14:38

oh and PS, nice car Stav! Glad you're getting rid of the wheels they look sh1t lol. Does it have a cage or is it EDC ready?

Stavros · 19-09-2007, 14:40

No cage at all, its on the list.

Not EDC ready in the slightest TBH, MSC rules are a lot simpler, lol

**Bon Bon** · 19-09-2007, 14:43

From the description I know that road, it's in the cotswolds right??? I've driven up and down it when I was on L plates years ago.

And I'm sure I can do it downhill in the chaser...

Sammy the turbo's compressor wheel got damaged when I ran it without a filter at trax.

Nelo · 19-09-2007, 14:43

cool, any ideas for wheels?

lozza · 19-09-2007, 15:11

Awesome car Stav, glad its finally here!! Big fan of Chasers (chaser front ends)!

BTW that road looks awesome!!! but i reckon the volvo might flip over into those tree's

still worth a pop!

Chandler · 19-09-2007, 18:22

That is soooooo rude! Nice one for having the balls to buy the fricker

Stavros · 22-09-2007, 18:09

Rather than go to the Drift All Stars event or Rally Day (as i was skint and couldnt even afford to get there n back) I spent the day with my mate Greg sorting out a few bits n bobs on the car.

Indicators were sorted by plugging in the hazard light switch which was out for some reason, but were flashing fast as the side repeaters wasnt working.
So removed them to find theres NO wires going to them!
frick knows where they are, but its a minor issue, they are obv somewhere!

We fitted side skirts n rear bumper better with some deft use of cable ties, so looks nicer now.

And we fitted the front bumper too, but the thing is a horrendous quality mould, twisted as frick, so will never fit dead straight, but hey, its a drift car.

Also went to fit my big GTR intercooler and found it wont fit, so either R32 and R33 GTR coolers are different in mounting points AND where the inlet and outlet is (anyone know?) or its not a GTR one anyhow.
Its deffo bigger than a stock GTR one anyhow (its like, 3.5in thick it seems) so frick it, it can stay.

Want to check what offset the rear wheels are too as the rear tyres are only 225 wide and fricking sit RIGHT on the edge of the arch already!? Like the sidewall pokes out, the tread just sits on the edge.
Hope they mega low offset wheels or its gonna properly suck for putting wider ones on!

Finally Greg found the electric mirror control boxin the glovebox so i plugged that back and and enjoyed pressing the button to make the mirrors fold in n out for 5 mins. Simple things please simple minds etc etc...

Took a few pics too, camera seems to be on the piss and messed the light up a bit, but still, looks cool...

bubble1984 · 22-09-2007, 18:11

looking mint.

good luck with her

**Bon Bon** · 23-09-2007, 09:10

Stock rear arches will more than likely suck for wide offset rims, rota 9.5 et35 should present no problems though and for a fun street car I wouldn't use hugemungous tyres anyway.

Bust out the arch roller or something

Yeah, was my thoughts too. At mo arch lips are folded flat, but looks maybe possible to flare a little, tho not much as door is right there.

Is 225s on a 9.5 ok? Dont want it to drive wank and 225s would be good enough for fun use and my poor skills.

Jason · 23-09-2007, 13:22

ive got 225 on a 9.5, and although wider would be better and youll lose a bit of grip, its not the end of the world mate

NIcad7 · 23-09-2007, 14:04

I used to run 225's on 9.5J its ok not much grip, good compromise for learning/grip though

Chaser looks wicked, mine should have been on the same boat as your's

got another 2 weeks to wait and now its going to bloody bristol!!!

Glad it all went ok though puts me at ease a little bit

nice to see there no damage from the shipping unlike Phil's Chaser, would have really pissed me off.

Cant wait to see your 81 drifting though will look awesome

Hammond · 23-09-2007, 14:07

Looks awesome mate, seriously pimp - fecking love it

MrNick · 23-09-2007, 14:11
