_FNQ_rolla_ Posted August 11, 2010 Report Posted August 11, 2010 Wheels either make or break a car (the colour of your car looks kinda like my little KE35) i like shiny wheels :dance: Quote
agius Posted August 11, 2010 Author Report Posted August 11, 2010 Nice! Whats the specs on those wheels? Really nice fit there.. What do you want spacers for? Front 14X7 0 offset Back 14X7.5 -6 offset the fronts where scraping with the break caliper, so i put washers on the studs which pushed it 6mm out, so i defiantly need spacers for the front i wanted to stick the wheels out a little bit so i can flair the guards over the wheels when i lower it i just love the phat look my mate has a guard roller so why not :dance: I'm only going 10mm spacers all around :dance: You don't really need to flare the guards with those wheels. You''ve increased your wheel track plenty just by dishing it out. I'd go low and stiff from here, but each to there own. Also you don't want to put your wheels at risk by using spacers.As for the blower... side drafts don't blow so good. I'm going with a sc12 on my 20 but using a 1n3/4" SU carb. Not too hard to set up. For a blow through carb set up all you'll need is a aircon crank pulley and mount from a k motor and the blower. You'll have to match a top pulley to the pressure you want run and pressure seal your webber. Set up your piping and your just about good to go. Just don't let the 5-0 pop your hood for at least 3 years. I'm going with a draw through set up where the blower sucks through the carby. SU's are good for high velocity delivery and there will be no need for pressure sealing it. yeahh i want to do the draw through set up also ive got a 32/36 down draft weber ill try it with that first if it doesnt work out ill go with the SU why don't you just strap a SC14 on ;) ive heard the SC12 enternals can't cope with fuel flowing inside but its just probably one of them myth's and about the spacers and flairing guards, i love the phat look and a mate of mine has a guard roller so why not true ;) plus I'm only going 10mm shouldn't hurt hehe Wheels either make or break a car (the colour of your car looks kinda like my little KE35) i like shiny wheels :dance: its true :laff: dish gives me the tingles :dance: Quote
