Holy fucking American profanities, this is intense, looks like it's gonna be awesome!
Also have you thought of mixing some of the VIP scene in there too? I mean it is a luxury car, I think it would look cool with some window blinds/curtains, but thats just my opinion.
Thanks
Yeah I have considered making the curtains, but they are going to be something I'd do at the very end of the build. Not sure what colour though, red/burgundy to match interior or grey to match the plastic quarter inserts.
Leaning more to grey, but thats still ages away anyway.
The wheels themselves are rad as hell.
The car is rad,
but I can only imagine that had you posted a frontal shot of that test fit, it would be an insane amount of camber, or poke, or a combination of the two.
I am SO DOWN with a Kaido racer styled car, but I just want you to go bat shit crazy, because I feel you're gonna need to- flares, big chin spoiler, shark nose, the works!
Oh, and your 180 is awesome.
Thanks
Unfortunately there are legalities that I have to work around.
This car will already be stupidly illegal, hence I am going to stockpile all the standard parts for when I do get caught by police.
This means that pretty much big body mods are mostly out of the question only mods to bolt on parts
Yesterday after the battery sat on charge for a couple of days, I went out to get it running and she fired up straight away.
So it drove her out to get a wash.
High as a kite this car is, and thats with Kings low springs....
Most of that suspension stuff is going to be ditched anyway, so doesn't really matter for the moment
I then decided that I should trial fit the 15x12s...
Nothing could prepare you for what followed...
That is some fucking poke...
I then decided to try something more mild from my wheel collection
17x8 0 BBS RS
Not bad at all, looks like they would camber in nicely when lowered
Because this is the last ladder frame Crown model the body actually has little shocks that mount to the frame to make it feel like you are driving a couch
Solid frame = stiff chassis
I then decided that I need to see how I can mount the 15x12s to make them look like what I planned...
Yeah... thats gona be a lot of work....
In the mean time I need to do the following things before I can get to the fun part.
Replace leaking diff with a spare one.
Replace cracked tail light
Replace missing side mirror glass

You'll need a tall tire, unless you're planing to drive on the inside of the wheel with that amount of camber.
I bet it will look awesome in the end, ill keep an eye on this.
