How'd you manage with the hub carrier in the end?


Had to take the rear disk off and take apart the handbrake cable and shoes then tool the hub to a garage and they took the nut off with a gun.

Now i have the bonnet back i am up for sorting the car out havnt no bonnet i didnt see the point in sortingthe car out lazy really.

Still not sure on the colour though can sombody photo chop the wheels for us and maybe a different colour for the car too as i might like it to go blue or dark purple.

Next mod is this.

click

then its off to the bodyshop for a respray i'll prob stick to the red for now.

I am also thinking of buying new back lights what do you think remeber the bonnet roof and boot will all be in black.

click

I go and pick up my 2way diff on thursday once i have this all i need suspension wise its front and rear anti roll bars solid rear subframe bushes and drift works four arm kit which is this

Driftworks adjustable camber control arms with pillowball ends allow you to accurately set your rear camber. A must for any lowered car, as the standard eccentric bolt doesn't allow enough adjustment. Correct alignment is essential when trying to achieve the perfect drift setup

Driftworks adjustable toe control arms, again essential when lowering the car, you often go beyond the range of standard toe adjustment, and cause uneven tyre wear and bad handling characteristics. These arms allow you to align the car back into spec. The use of the spherical bearing helps eliminate unwanted play in suspension components under the heavy loads that drifting applies.

Driftworks traction control arms, replace the standard non adjustable Nissan part. It is the final adjustable arm needed on S13,S14,S15,R32,R33 rear suspension set up. Adjusting this arms length decides how much toe is given to the rear wheel under suspension compression. The arms also eliminate another of the unwanted standard rubber bushes from the rear suspension setup, once again contributing towards that perfect handling car.

Driftworks adjustable tension rods allow you to acurately set the castor angle of the front suspension. By using a high load spherical bearing they eliminate all the play that the huge jelly filled standard bushes cause. This gives you much more predictable and acurate steering, handling and braking as the wheel is going where you tell it to instead of where bumps in the road tell it.

Done the quickshift its now in the car and gives a better gear change.

Also fitted the fmic piping and i am far from happy with the pipe work on the inlet side and think i may have to get custom pip work done to replace it.

The fmic is at last where its ment to be (i think)

[Linked Image]

Sits higher than it used to as before it was far to low.

Needed to remove more bits of the car to get it done right but i think its sorted out now just need to get the right size battery.

Also the kits going on at the end of the month not getting the wide arch kit as its going to cost far to much as i would need wider wheels spacers and the rest of the kit on and a full respray.

The cars been off the road long enough.
