new skid car (will keep this one) - Page 3 - Drifting forum

spin-king · 06-07-2008, 01:50

well as some of you may know i bought jun arches as the arches on my car are fooked.

They should arrive this week so fingers crossed fitted by the end of the motnh.

After asking a few people i should only need 25mm spacers to fill the arches running my gtr's

If thats not enough i have dw bottom arms so could get extra width from them

HellaFlush · 06-07-2008, 01:52

Are they 9.5J? Or one ones pictured? Youll need Uber spacers im thinking?

edit.. Note to self.. Check prior page...

Rears should be ok.. Fronts may need more than 25mm though id imagine as those arch extensions arent shy!! lol

robbs · 06-07-2008, 02:22

if your gtr's are the typical 9.5j et30 then i recon you'll need more than a 25mm spacer for them to look badass

, if they're the et12 then maybe

if you aint fitted the wheels yet or had tyres fitted and they're still in brand new state id send em back and exchange them for 9.5 et12 all round

My solid subframe bushes have arrived but wont have time to put them on before i go the pod.

Also fitted the welded diff.

And bought a apex turbo elbow.

Wheels havnt arrived yet hoping they are here by weds.

Once this driftdays been and gone all get to working fitting all the parts i have bought which should take me some time LOL

Oh and bought myself a nice camara so can start getting pics done again.

spin-king · 11-07-2008, 20:42

Pics from the pod

Had a great day BUT it came at a price

clutch is slipping MORE

Subframe bushes are all shot

used a stupid amount in fuel

still getting too hot

But worth it

spin-king · 11-07-2008, 20:46

Going to start fitting all the bits i have stacked up ready for the pod on the 10th of sept.

spin-king · 18-07-2008, 17:07

Lowered the car some more and got tyres for my new rims

215/45/18's on the front and 225/45/18's on the rears pics to follow

Alright mate, there ya go, sorry they are sideways.. lol no pun intended. I still think the stretched rubber would look hell of a lot more gangsta on my 106

spin-king · 18-07-2008, 17:46

Cheers for that Sean matey

spin-king · 18-07-2008, 22:09

Loving the new look though.

Wont be buying anything else for a while now (well maybe sil80 vented front wings).

Just going to get round to fitting all my parts.

Trying to get hold of 4 stud skyline rear disks so i can put my 2 pots on and maybe get a hydraulic handbrake as my handbrake kept sticking up when i didnt want it to even though i have the dw button lol)

oscar 200 · 18-07-2008, 23:52

Think its just me being to keen

So cleaned the car and got some better pics with new rims on.

Still having cooling problems relly need a viscus fan if anybody has one.

HellaFlush · 23-07-2008, 21:21

Get it looower at the front! lol..

Looks great on them though, shame u didnt go for the 9.5s front too

spin-king · 23-07-2008, 22:02

Prob going to get et12's for the rear and move the one on the rear to the front once i get the arches on matey.

Does need to go lower at the front just need to sort the camber out first.

spin-king · 05-08-2008, 00:40

Bought more bits to help with my drifting a hydraulic handbrake kit.

Incase you dont know what it looks like LOL

Already have skyline rear calipers and have ordered some 300zx grooved disks drilled to 4 stud for my motor.

Found the standard handbrake ok but kept getting it stuck up plus the disks and pads need changing so though i may aswell upgrade.

Been told its simple to put this lot on but have no faith in my myself so will need help fitting this lot if anybody wants to help.

Seano · 05-08-2008, 02:46

Spend spend spend again mate

lol! Well made up your doing this one proper this time mate, its turning out to be an awesome project, especially with what you have told me is on the way!

Keep it up..!

..and I'll say it again, your ROTA's + my PUG = Gangsta ..

don't panic if you find your '13 on bricks.. I'm just test fitting
