The quest for meaty fitments and fasts. In a fwd hatch... wut?

[Thom]

You'll be right its not too hard just need the welder set up properly

Yeah I had it turbo'ed then got defected and it took way too much too get it on the road so I stripped the engine. Now im building a buggy with a sr20de+t

My mate is dragging me along too it.. I don't like taking my daily too meets lol

Yea. I understand how to do it via videos. But that doesnt mean im any good :P

Ah that sucks man. I thought it was cool as. Ill have to come round in the next few weeks and check it out/borrow le guard roller haha.

hopefully see this thing on friday night, so I can laugh and poke sticks at it :p

Oi m8. Most hekkas car at the meet i swear. Will still have mixed matched wheels/hubs most likely tho. :'(


Oh yea made it into one photo from sunday

Yea. One day.. haha.

Sweet. I wouldn't have a clue what i was doing so it would just get holes blown through it or slag everywhere D: ha.
Wut why? Didn't you turbo it not too long ago :S

I might be. Ill try and get work off. Hopefully I can get the rear hubs swapped in time.

Gtr wheels would be mint..

I have random stuff at home we could make it work.. or pie cut some straight.. Its not too hard i have better results when im not being really careful.

Sadly you never will see it went too the wreakers a month ago.. I have another side project until i get a replacement

Meets can suck for that i never was near my car for that reason.. Are you going to the p plater meet on Friday ??

[Thom]

Yeah that wouldn't be too hard.. Your More than welcome too come have a go at welding..

I really like the way the oem wheels look on it.. Ive got a roller if you wanna give it a crack yourself

Thanks man. I hope to aquire 32 gtr wheels at some point for it and run a 215/45 on it.
I might take you up on that man. Ill have to figure out what bends i need. And seeing as my front guards suck from the PO it wont matter if i ruin them a bit learning to roll. Would be good to check your car out. I havn't seen it in like a year i think.

Went to a car show/meet. Car was laughed at by a couple. Whatever has mixed matched wheels and is a mirage.

Got my front 5 stud on today. Still need to trim my tie rod ends down a touch.. Lowered the front so it sits level. Now I need fix the scrubbing D:

[Thom]

This is really cool. What are you looking forward to the most on this build? More go fast now that youve got a fix for your lows? Or is the go fast a far off plan?

Get the rest of my parts from my coupe into it. And hit the track really. Then save for turbo time.

Making good Progress sucks what happened too your lancer.

What are you doing with the exhaust.. Me and my house mate do them from home..

Cheers man. Yea. ahwell. Not sure yet. I have the coupes exhaust here still. Was thinking of getting the rear section modified to suit because its all the same until just behind the rear control arms. If I could weld id make a new one :3

Thanks man. Going to lower it again for a meet on sunday. Hoping I can get the front hubs swapped and new tires for it at least. So good to drive now. Keen to get it all swapped and an alignment done.

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

rather excited to see what the end production will be with this

[Thom]

And be dissapointed.

But I got my coilovers



There is still about 1.5inches up front and 3 out back. But To get out my yard/driveway I couldnt. Almost beach myself getting in and out as is. Need to hub swap now.

[Thom]

Coilovers didn't arrive today. So there goes my plan of being stuck in the yard this weekend. I did however swap over the side skirts and amber indicators. Excuse mah shitty phone pic.

Tomorrow im swapping my fto rear sway bar. Hoping the coils aren't too much longer.
