Sorry, no pics until tomorrow and there will be lots to follow

I will be picking up the car tomorrow...primered and most likely without the sideskirts done. I have a ton of **** I need to do before the engine even gets here which looks like Tuesday or most likely Wednesday. That means some all nighters to get it ready for Sevenstock. I am still hoping to make the caravan down on Friday morning with the I-5 south crew.

I also need to have it running by Wedensday night so I can (hoping to at least) take it to Roger Krauss Racing to be lowered, aligned and cornerweighted on Thursday morning. Right now there is enough camber in the rear that only 2/3 of the rear tire touch the ground as can be seen from some of the pics. The front also has to much camber. Also it sits WAY to high for me right now. I'm not into prematurely wearing the tires down on the way to and from Sevenstock (750+ miles).

Also, we are definately going to make some molds and replicate these fenders. These will be the absolute widest fenders available anywhere and they will actually cover the whole tire unlike every other flare out there. These can fit 315/18's and 345/18's in the front and rear respectively and maintain the option of slamming the car to the ground.

GO BIG

 

awesome work man, what a car!

 

GAWD I LOVE IT....When I do my TII Swap into my FB, I want beefy *** tires and some flares..not too much, but gawd do I love it.

I remember seeing a flat black camaro(last model made), some thick tires, and nice beefy body, and was fast as hell. After that, I just could never get that image of a beef monster out of my mind...and seeing this*drools***

 

[B]Damn thats got some GIRTH....a little wide for me.....But it still looks pretty good. Mad Props....(I dont like body work. Too much sanding and body filler work and yea I did lots of it)
Well cant wait to see the finished product.

 

Well I picked up the car last night and I took lots of pictures today.

I am very happy thus far but there is still work to be done besides the obvious need for paint. The new hood latches still need to be installed. We need to figure out a way to mount the sideskirts so they do not look so "kittish" and please let me hear your ideas and/or criticism. I'm hoping to get a lot of input at Sevenstock for any final touches cosmetically before we make molds and spray the car.

 

 

molded skirts :\ only way to fight the kit.

 

How much is the tire/wheel cost? if you dont mind answering... Atleast the tires, cus I wanna go wide but with different rims... However, the car looks fukin sick... congrats. I thought I wasnt gunna like it, but damn it looks good as ***.

 

skirts are fine, keep them removable incase they get damaged, easier repair.

 

Exactly..

 

omg the sexy loooks amazing man.. omg i want

 

wwwwwooowwwww, I cream my pants.

 

Great job! That is Soooo sick! I cant wait to see it painted!

 

WOW! I wish I could afford to do that with my car. I've long since immagined being able to run 315's and 335's for the track so I can spank everyone in the corners. That's beautiful. It's also really nice to see people runnign widebodies for the right reasons, not styling, but huge *** tires!

 

how bout some pics with the top down?

 

Damn that looks sweet man. If you ever come out wit a kit for this I would buy it in a heartbeat! I'd love to do that with my vert. Is that a Corksport type RE wing?

 

Ok, this is how I see it, looks really nice, when painted it will be crazy. And GOOD LORD LOOK AT THAT FART CAN, THAT THING IS HUGE. Oh, and let me have the hood.

 

Thanks for all the compliments guys.
What I am really looking for is some criticism and or suggestions. Don't be afraid to hold back...please.
Hence the dilema.
We are most likely going to keep them removable but attach the fastening hardware to the backside of each skirt and then to the backside of each fender.
I definateley do not want to see any mounting hardware on the outside of the car.
My CCW's cost around $2100 and the tires can be had from $900-$2000 for a set depending on what brand. Obviously you could find less expensive rims too. Carl Byck found a nice set of very lightweight rims from Real Racing iirc for a very reasonable price. I imagine you could get the wheel and tire combo from as little as $1500 if you are resourceful and patient.
Very soon.

 

I will be offering this as a kit much sooner than later. There is no final price as of yet but it should be very reasonable as I am only looking to recover my costs. There will be all four fenders and the sideskirts. The thing is, I need to have molds made before the car is painted and I want the car painted SOON. I can get the molds done sooner if I recieve a few deposits first to speed up the process by helping me with the initial investment. To make the molds and one set of copies is going to roughly cost me $3000. The kit will be much less than that. Lets say a $500 deposit will get you in the door. I am expecting to have the molds made and copies ready to go by no later than the end of November.

There are NO wider fenders in the world for 2nd gens than what I will be offering, with the exception of the IMSA/GTU stuff from Mazdaspeed for tube chassis cars. Additionally, these will be the only flares that cover the entire wheel and incorporate sideskirts.

There should be no doubt about the quality of these as I will have them professionaly done and for those of you that know me, you know I expect nothing but the best from myself and others.

BTW, the wing is no longer available anywhere.

 

Is there anyway that you could paint it another color that is not white??? I feel that other color would make it come out really nice. Something like silver or black or a combo of both.. I just dont think that with body work as extensive as this, that you should use a color that is so bland.

 

this has probably been asked 100 times already but what kind and where did you get that hood?

 

I promised myself that I will never go widebody again but I find myself reading your posts more than once. How much do you estimate the price will be for the kit if you produce it?

 

whoa...your car looks like a Porsche 944turbo on steriods.... j/k.

Your engine is almost done. My little accident yesterday didn't help me any. but I got all housings ported.

will give you a call later
