This car will stay a 4wd! Got the compomotive mags today! 13" and it fits over the brakes! Looks damn aggressive! And the wheels are damn light!

Will post some pics just now!

As I said, we recieved the compomotive wheels today!

We were really hping that we could get the 13" wheels to fit, because of the specific slicks we would like to run and also for unsprung weight!

Remember, this car will be getting a wide arch bodykit, so its ok for the wheels to stick out a bit! :twisted:

Some pics!

There is less than a 2mm gap between the caliper and the wheels!

The car no needs to get lowered another 50mm +-..... Should look better in the arches then!

Secondly, the missfire is back! Dammit! Changed the plugs....made it worse! Cleaned the MAF....not helping!

What next guys?

Really nice car. Just one small thing you really need to check out. Running slicks and upping the power. The GTiR drivetrain is said to become fragile when upping the power and the grip. be it with bigger wheels and tyres or running slicks. Guys have had huge problems and ruened many gearboxes. Would hate to see another one die because of it. Get the drive train checked out, do your research and strengthen the drivetrain.

Fantastic car. Would love one myself. 8.5 stars for a awesome Nissan SR powered beast... :wink:

Agreed with you there man! We will check out the stock system first, if we feel its not upto the strain we will probably get some straight cut gears... :twisted:

Looks good, should go well with those light wheels.
Just check clubmans rules about wide arches. not more than 65mm from body with no wheel outside :wink:

Yip, seen that already. We checked and we should be fine with that...

Looks like this project might go a bit quicker than I thought. Hopefully we can still have it on the track this year!

BC Coilovers ordered! THanks Wynand!

Looking for straight cut gears at the moment, Quaife cannot help us. Looking at PPG in the UK.

Struggling to find a wide-body kit. Looks like it will need to come from Japan!
