Project Ke70

[zeph_KE70]

Clearance is like 12mm... :glare: Anyone know what to do? would i run different springs ect.

(12mm clearance with new wheels, stock ones are fine)

 

 

[zeph_KE70]

or is it fine to drive with it like that? :blinks:

[wagn]

should be fine if there is no rubbing smaller tyres may help

Depends how much of a hard time you give it.. Picture going into a corner hard and the outside front strut is bending.... hitting potholes and the stub axles are flexing...

 

Take a look each weekend for a month and see if there are clean areas on the tyre or the strut.

 

Were those rims on the car, or are they illegal to use and the guy took them off to sell it??

4 hours of thorough cleaning and dusting. So me and Dad went down the road to AutoBarn to get some rocker cover paint, we got "Rocker Red" We also got a 12 AMP battery charger and some more de-greaser :lolcry:

 

Set up for the painting. Sanding, Cleaning and a lot of elbow grease.

Nice to see you got a nice one Zepha! :P Anyway if you need help just call me up xD

 

Just a side note, add the pictures to the main post (Hit the edit button) so we don't have to go looking through all the pages for new images, and also I got a GoPro Hero 2 that I won so I should have that in December if you want me to take pics :P

 

Brendon btw ^ ^

 

Also, juts to let you know with the wheels, you aren't going to be drifting in those :P Could you send over the exact wheel size and the model of the shocks if possible? :D Could ever get smaller shocks or smaller wheel bases upto you :P Talk tomorrow at the Exams :P

Rust spotting, Found!

Not a big deal, just under the radiator, not a big job.

Haha probably :)

 

I've already got the bog though, but how much would a panel cost? and how hard is installation??

[Mitch-12]

Beaver panel is a piece of piss, few bolts. Nothing major.

You could probably pick up a good one for $20 bucks.

Pretty sure you can take it off without taking off the bumper, only time ive taken it off the bumper has been off so not 100%

 

EDIT : Didnt notice you had a slanty. Pretty sure its all the same.
