Ohiospyderman: Go broncos! The final car will not weigh more than 50lbs over stock

Bris Car Audio: Thank you boss! Do come over whenever you are here itll be great!

Vidiit: only the boot and rear quarter panels are a skin over the original. The bumpers, side skirts and front fenders are replacement panels.

StxFoo: Shudhi karan for sure! if not me, atleast my folks will... you know what i mean!

Thank you 3kluv, Jackbadboy..... hotelkilo, venom1312, patience!

The project got delayed coz i got other brilliant ideas on the way lol. My car is partly sponsored by yokohama now, it will be painted in the advan supra style with black and red stripes and will be used as a common showcar.

The plan to add hydraulics has been dropped, going for a Hotbits Coilover suspension which will deliver in a few days.

The tires have arrived Advan Sport 245/40/18, new wheels on the way too.

Ill paint the car in Standox Brilliant Black coated with Platinum Clearcoat (superexpensive!).... Will add the red advan stripes with vinyl.

And ill take the car out to party on new yrs eve! For sure godamnit, its been long now im pissed with myself!

wtf? a daewoo dealership?

autopsycho · 12-22-2007, 01:54 AM

LOL no, it was a daewoo service centre long time back, i run my own workshop there now, just havent bothered to take the stickers off the pillars

The whole place needs an interior revamp anyway so ill just get down to it sometime next year!

PS: mannnn keep your eyes on the car hehe... if you wanna look around, in the background there is a Mitsubshi EVO VI, a New Civic Sedan , a BMW E34, a Toyota Sera, and a Hummer H1

Cheerios~

Why did you drop the bags? I was looking forward to it getting slammed

.

autopsycho · 12-22-2007, 08:32 AM

There's a friend of mine who's slammed his 3kGT and according to him at full height on the bags the car is almost 1.5" lower than stock which i cant afford to do and the air mostly leaks out completely if the car is standing for a few days. With the hotbits suspension the advantages i have is that i can keep it at stock height most of the time im driving. Belive me i really need the ground clearance out hereall the time

JackBadBoy · 12-22-2007, 09:31 AM

Nice, really nice man. Why not 19" rims or more(for show car)

Mint1992vr4 · 12-22-2007, 09:54 AM

Nice progress!

1Forest1 · 12-22-2007, 10:01 AM

Nice work.

The offset on the rims looks pretty good for the wider fenders. Is that from the specs on the rims, or are you running spacers?

autopsycho · 12-22-2007, 10:39 AM

Those wheels are slightly negative offset with the rears being 9.5" wide. it doesnt look so in the pic, but even those are about 1.5" inside the body line from the top. I plan to change the wheels to a different design and add 1" spacers on them.
