    So back to this build.

    Picked up the rear calipers last week, gave them a degrease..




    And I also found some JDM flat sidemarkers I had stashed away..



    So today, after sleeping 3 hours (late night crew meet), I got up and started doing the guards. First time Ive ever actually used a proper roller, I usually use a piece of pipe, so I didnt know what to expect. I knew the car wasnt Immaculate and has been resprayed at some stage so I prepared for the worst.

    The front guards had bog (bondo) in them, and the left rear arch had a bit of rust in it, so they didnt come out as clean as I hoped. Being a budget build, I really dont care

    Before and after pics of each corner:

    Front right (already damaged guard):




    Rear right:



    Front left:



    Rear left:



    Considering I tried to get as much as I could out of them, It came up not too bad. If it were a slight roll it would have been mickey mouse, but gotta pull to fit 9"s and 9.5"s with neg offsets

    Only problem is, if they arent rolled enough, I have to resort to hammer, cause once all the type r suspension is on, the guard roller wont fit in there... Ill see how I go though.

    All good guys, I understand everyones anticipation. Once its done, It wont be that special, but Im building it the way I want to, to be able to put down rediculous lap times and still look better then any car on the track while doing it haha

    So back to THIS build...

    Picking up calipers tomorrow, and Doing most of the body work on it this weekend.

    Whoh, I feel bad now that you wrote so much to elaborate for me oxer. Seems a long journey but it would definitely pay off in the long run for sure. And what fun would there be if you rushed a project?

    That post shall be linked to all questions asked in the future. Fin.
