Now its looking good, all neat and tidy, and a very aggresive looking front end :twisted:

Even with the huge arches, the wheels still poke out, they must be massive..!

Keep it going mate, you've been an inspiration, and I want to see it finished!!! :wink:

Hope you get the suspension issues sorted mate.
If it wasnt airbourne, you wernt going hard enough

Cool... literally :D

Just building ducting behind mine aswell - from chatting to others this seems to be more important than airflow onto the front face. With negative pressure behind it the air will be sucked through.

OMG look at the size of the oil cooler and intercooler !!!

Looks good though although I hate to post anything bad on here but I am not a big fan of the bumper. Is it supposed to mate with the wide arches ?

On the right side of the car (opposite the oil cooler) will this be ducted up to the intake ?

Good progress though mate, bet you are looking forward to driving it !!!

A little planning is all it needed we now have 2 ways to go regarding the suspension, it's which one will work best :? It will be finished very soon.


Dunc
You right (again :roll: ) the air needs somewhere to go afterwards and a good draw back out, it needs a way in & a way out :grin:


RX7
You wanting a Skyline yet :P :lol:
Say your mind, if you don't like it tell me, I don't mind honest :twisted:
The jun bumper is very good for airflow, thats why I choose it, the coolers, rad, brakes etc will all be ducted :)

As for it fitting to the wing, do you really think I would send it out like that :oops: shame on you :lol:



























How's this ?

I never realised how true the saying was "pictures don't do it justice" but they don't.

I am so looking forward to just seeing Keiko sat on the floor at ride hieght, you don't get the full picture of wide the front end is, it's like the bonnet has grown :lol: :lol:

Image


Sorry couldn't get the whole car in, I was balancing on a very iffy box

Image


Looking good with the bonnet on!

Image


It makes such a differance having the bonnet painted with a gloss.

amazing - simply amazing - it's funny - camera's can never capture fat arches properly - I remember taking pics of mine - then looking at them and thinking that it isn't the same car.
Dum spiro, spero

I think darker colours show them off more, but it's like you say, from as I remember looking at it last night, it's nothing like the pics!



Cheers Nik, Silver 32's, they are the way forward :grin:
