Standard...ish. At one of the BP Drift days, arch gaps you live in
A collection of parts:
Shiny blue bits from Apex, Rose-jointed adjustable arms
Shiny pink bits from Apex, Sub-frame locking collars
S14 5 Stud hubs and front lower arms
S14 4 Pot calipers & Black diamond grooved/dimpled disks
Z32 Rear discs
4x Goodridge Braided brake lines.
Also picked up a set of R33 GTST Rear calipers from supercarparts
A set of Apex 8/6 Coil-overs
With some rather odd bottom mounts 1 12mm S13 size hole and 1 14mm S14 size hole, oddness!!! Nothing a few seconds with a 14mm drill bit cant solve.
A couple of coats of Hammerite on the calipers
Still need another coat and they'll probably turn pink after the first track day...
Some standard S14 wheels
So its off with the old:
And then wrap it up for a week while real life gets in the way....
And on with the new:
Now thats more like it:
Better arch gap and its still up in the air...
Unfortunately the GTR wheels are rubbing on the coil-over locking collars for the suspension, so it'll have to be s14 wheels for a while till i sort some 5mm spacers. The longer s14 arms has made it all knock knee'd and there's a tonne of front toe that needs adjusting out, but thats the front suspension done...ish. Rear first then brakes all round.
Onwards and downwards!
Back on the floor and S14 wheels on, cars so low the jack wont come out doh, so it gets its own little plinth
Arse in the air wire brush all the nuts and bolts and attack with WD40 in prep for tomorrows battle.
Hmmm I think isee why the rear brakes failed the MOT :-D
So this is how she stands tonight
With any luck it wont snow tomorrow and ill have another chance to loose all feeling in my feet.
Fun! :-D
im used to MG's :oops: I just haven't got a socket that big. So all that happened is U cracked all the nuts that would move on the rear arms and covered everything in WD40, hoping if I do that once a day till next sat they should give in rather easier. In the mean time I'm off to buy the biggest breaker bar i can find :-D
