Haha pics of your knob dude. RE offset: I guess its technically +2 now seeing as ive got 10mm spacers all around. IMO the front sits nicely (albiet a bit high) but the rear is too weak. Ideally i'd run around -5 on the back. Yep have long decided on a colour. And once we get the diff back in (tonight hopefully!) I'll be finishing the panel work then start throwing some colour down. I've had to slow down a wee bit on the car as I've been trying to sort my sh*t out financially. Mind you I never had a timeframe and it was more of a toy too muck around with... so its all good! You on the NZSilvia or s-chassis forums? /Edit - Might as well update you cats on some E30 drifting! So the much loved Commrades E30 "Dowork" is getting new feet and a new powerplant. It gets Nissans CA18DET. Also a D-Drug wing.. Haruguchi style! Old footwork: New: Shamelessly jacked from ZT Edited May 26, 2009 by Mattzy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mattzy 0 Report post Posted May 26, 2009 (edited) The CA looks completely lost in the engine bay! Definately agree! I thought the same thing when I first saw it. It will definately take some weight from the nose and I see awesome potential for a V-Mount setup! Also - LSD's in and working nicely.

CamB 48 Report post Posted May 26, 2009 I don't really see the point to v-mount. I know the reasons that get quoted, but I reckon the difference in heat and in intake path would make bugger all difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know the reasons that get quoted, but I reckon the difference in heat and in intake path would make bugger all difference. For sure mate - However I guess V-Mounting in this application would be more about protecting the intercooler, oilcooler and radiator. You could move it deeper into the engine bay and further from harm. I also agree gains from V-Mounting are negligible. Although I cannot deny super bling intake shrouds, angled radiators and flashy rivets look cool! (I love rice) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mattzy 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) So its 10:30 - 11:00ish PM on Sunday evening and we've just got back from the Warriors. With no real plans for the night and after a couple of beers we decide we want to venture back out into the cold and do something. So I call Air New Zealand hoping to get a flight down to Christchurch (for no real reason barring continued alcohol consumption) but unfortunately the last plane had left... Sh*t, I even tried Wellington but had no joy... It seemed the only plane leaving somewhere Sunday evening was to the USA... slightly out of my budget for impulse traveling. The next idea was something I've wanted to do for a while; and part of the reason for buying a sensible car. To drive from Auckland to the top of NZ to watch the sunrise (in a totally hetrosexual, two guys, thug life way) So after much deliberation (read: filling the car up) we jumped in, fired up the super awesome E-bay powered HID's and set our sights on the top. Toll gate time (sorry I know its a horrible shot!) One of the many random stops Cue generic wheel shot So we arrived at around 5ish in the morning. I slept for maybe 2 and a half hours before getting out of the car to snap this one... Yes, thats ice on the car. For those who haven't been to the top of our country at 7am in the morning on the first day of winter and are looking to do so, I would largely reccomend against it! You've got to be nuts... I cannot explain how bitterly cold the wind was.. But was the juice worth the squeeze? Fu*k yeah it was. I wish I'd taken a real camera instead of a snappy-snap digital, but oh well. Heres some more: Looking from the carpark. Words cannot explain how cold it was in that wind. So I ran... To the top! This is looking directly out from the top of the North Island Stopping to fix a blown fuse... Note the new two tone mud-job. Snapped this one when we were stopped. No idea where-ville Entering the rather disappointing tunnel. I probably should paint the car soon too! Edited June 2, 2009 by Mattzy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
