eh im not one to lower it that much...

are you going to paint the car? the wheels stand out too much with flat paint...or is it red primer?

Post by **chmercer** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 5:34 am

na the paint just sucks, i have to wetsand it, but been working on a motor swap so havent really been paying attention to it.

Post by **nismofly** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 5:42 am

dude chmercer, you are the man. you are my wheel/tire/fitment idol. just thought i should let you know. i'm poor, but i ordered some DRW which are coming in soon.

Your brakes look naked.

Post by **chmercer** » Mon May 02, 2005 10:32 pm

haha, i got some z32s lined up.

thankyou gogg, that makes me proud. dont take my advice though, cause itll make your car handle badly and wear out your tires. but itll look cool

:: WARNING ::

car looks like total **** in these pics

i just got the new KA motor up and running, been doddling around making sure everything is working properly, so proper wheels havent been the priority. I threw some junk on the front to roll it around on. i believe the specs on the white wheel are 16x7 +35 with 2 8mm plates to clear the nismo studs, and on the passenger side i just have a regular SE wheel 16x6.5 +40. haha! ghetto supreme. and yea how do you like my julio wheel fitment in the back lol, it has like no camber. fixed soon.

be very afraid of the curb! one scratch one those bad boys and you wont be able to sleep for days

Post by **gogg** » Tue May 03, 2005 9:30 am

Post by **chmercer** » Tue May 03, 2005 7:43 pm

At least you admit that there's no real functional reason to do this...I think a lot of the new "drifters" truly think that the widest wheels/most stretched tires will make them good drifters. Kinda sad.

NICE!!

Post by **CaoBoY** » Tue May 03, 2005 8:25 pm

you rolled the rear fenders right? damn those are nice....

Post by **chmercer** » Wed May 04, 2005 5:21 am

yep, rolled and slightly pulled

Check em for leaks! Spoke to a thoroughly tricked-out M3 owner who was disgusted with his. HRE recommended using silicon sealant to cope with leaks! Finish was peeling too. He had SSR for his track days.

Is that the V::S version 1 kit? Did you ever get bigger barrels for the 18x7.5s?

And wet sand that paint...although I would never run such huge wheels, stretched tires, etc, I have to admit that if your paint looks better you will have a pretty cool looking zenki. I'm sick of all the drift s14s being black koukis with the same body kits and wheels...pretty unoriginal.

Post by **BomexS13** » Thu May 05, 2005 8:23 pm

so wheres the new pic??

Post by **SR 240Z** » Thu May 05, 2005 8:49 pm

yea definitely looks rad

Post by **chmercer** » Thu May 05, 2005 9:17 pm

mexican 0 camber hyperflush

last one

these pics are outdated again haha, went to ye olde alignment shoppe and got the caster toned down, wheel is pretty much in the center of the well now, looks less retarded.

maxnix - huh? all 3 piece wheels use silicon to seal them together, pretty common practice. it wouldnt hold air if you didnt.

turtl - yea it is version select version 1 (vertex copy). yea the paint sucks, havent had time to work on it with finals and stuff comming up. it should look better when i get a chance to work on it over the summer.

Post by **chmercer** » Thu May 05, 2005 9:24 pm

oh yea if anyone knows some place to get a new wheel dish from, please let me know. kodiakracing is a bunch of tards, i tell them i need a 6" wheel half made and they think i mean i want a 6" inch wide wheel, when i am perfectly clear, happened twice so far, i dont want to mess with people who think i dont know anything and want to 2nd guess me.

Post by **s14brent** » Fri May 06, 2005 12:09 am

wow...car looks awesome, i'm about to order the v/s kit soon

Post by **BomexS13** » Fri May 06, 2005 4:06 pm

nice....damn your cars uber low, can you drive that thing?? WHen mine was that low, I cant even get out of our street...

Post by **chmercer** » Fri May 06, 2005 8:14 pm

lol you think so? imho its pretty gay high up right now, its like 3" off the ground i can fit like all 4 fingers under the front bumper. i cant freakin lower it right now cause the front tires are retardedly huge and its almost impossible to stretch a tire on a pizza cutter 7.5" and its already at like 4 camber. ugh

Post by **turtl631** » Sat May 07, 2005 6:07 am

couldnt get bigger barrels made? 18x7.5....weak! lol
