[ToPLeSS(e30)FienD]

man. i love this car.. been back and forth through this thread and it does not cease to amaze me. everybody has their own opinion, but if i ever come to the UK, i need to make a pitstop to where ever you are so i can see this thing in action..

wow this is so diff.. i can dig git

[Momanatorz]

Pretty much ready for Lydden


got a noise coming from the rear o/s.


thought i'd try king of the ring at arena essex cos it's very local
didn't do too well however I got through qualification which surprised me!






the rear somewhat looks good in this pic. thinking of changing the backbox to 4" jap style


here's an O.G cat

Meh my cars almost undrivable over 60mph anyway. Seen this out skidding, goes really well. Kinda changed my opinion on compacts

[Momanatorz]

Car looks awesome, love the small wheels on this. What's it like driving around with nearly no interior? Gonna strip out my E30 once I get a bucket seat

It's okay until you get to 60mph+. then the diff and exhaust noise makes you not hear the music and you can't even talk to passengers or phone

Got rid of some un needed wiring



moved the battery to the boot to help the left rear weigh a bit more and front left weigh less.. not much but meh lol
used the original tray like a boss




put an extinguisher as you can see the wiring is gonna catch fire sometime.
this was quite funny




nah but really i am going to clean up all the wiring in the car, eventually.

Got the car setup today after replacing inner tie rods. 1mm of movement in the ball joints! finally my wheel won't wobble.
done corner weights
54% front
46% rear
20kg lighter on n/s/r than o/s/r, ideally the battery should be relocated cos it's fuckin massive in the n/s/r but it's not much weight difference and i'm happy with it. could get a racing battery but no idea about daily driving with those....

1113kg overall weight! pretty chuffed, want to do more weight reduction. stock is about 1300kg

Ripped exhaust mount so got heavy duty one which is pretty shit still, so stuff tigerseal in it, should be good.

also had a lil off last week. the bumper is not giving up.





also replaced the stock mtec repeaters for ambers <3

modded the bonnet struts so I don't crack my head everytime

[Momanatorz]

took this pics a few weeks ago. Since i've cleaned up the rear arches with a lick of paint and the bonnet is painted.

[Momanatorz]

Front end freshen up in progress

[Momanatorz]

hella sick car. great build. now get a new front bumper and repaint the car. lol

Got a new bonnet, bumper and slam panel to go on (without the washer holes). just need painting. and source another mk3 supra lip. hard to find in the Uk !
it's a drift car so no point repainting the whole thing haha. gonna get smashed and scratched.
