I've had 3 trackdays since, spun out a couple times, with the wheel bouncing from lock to lock at warp speed with no problems. am not worried. Better late than never :) I'd be more worried over a long period of time. Stress cracks don't happen quickly. Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 and I am finally caught up! By the only build I've read in a long time that hasn't pissed me off at any point. Lovin' the car. Quote Link to comment
PurePontiacKid Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Are you having any issues with the wheel rubbing on the inside of the wheel wheel? aaannnnddd I spoke too soon about this haha track day made me realize that I'm just barely rubbing the rear of the wells. nothing a rear-tub and some BFH loving can't fix on my new shell though!

Woody620 Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 This thing is awesome. Your build thread is a good thing for me to read through for mods since mines gonna be a slider as well. Haha I don't think you should re shell, i would rock it until it doesn't rock anymore! Quote Link to comment
PurePontiacKid Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 haha thanks, but I'm super stoked for the new shell, especially since I will be able to prep it properly and remove all the chassis flex that I can (without getting a bar/cage) and also painting the engine bay (something I've wanted to do for like two years already haha) and also http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yp7g_xUJwOI 2 Quote Link to comment

that one guy Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 How'd the tyres hold? Nice sliding btw. (also, what the hell is MOT?) Quote Link to comment
jalen Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 i agree with alex, okay the first 30 secs. then mute button was engaged. Quote Link to comment
PurePontiacKid Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 How'd the tyres hold? Nice sliding btw. (also, what the hell is MOT?) tires last depending on what kind I'm using/how many hot laps I do. if I only do like two hot laps then let them cool off, they can last a LONG time. these lasted twice as long as I expected them to just by letting them cool off haha WOT=Wide Open Throttle Quote Link to comment
that one guy Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I figured but wasn't sure. And good tip about the tires... I'll try that next time! Quote Link to comment
PurePontiacKid Posted May 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 got bored, decided to polish the lips on my drift spares some moar way pleased with how they came out this time around. the other 92 is a friend of mine's wheel. my pair looked pretty much exactly like that before I stared on them :D Quote Link to comment
JZ33 Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Do you do/use anything special to polish them? looks awesome! Quote Link to comment
M240Z Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 and busted these out in a couple hours tonight: stock steering angle stopper thing cut that shit the fuck out weld a concave piece back the fuck in extra fucking clearance both fucking clearanced and sand blasted the fuck out of both braced the fuck up I'm wondering if I can do this shit to my 240z? Quote Link to comment
PurePontiacKid Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 probably. go mod your knuckles, build up your front suspension and see what kind of clearance issues you run into. S30's fucking suck for steering angle. I hate driving them. Quote Link to comment
that one guy Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 s30 for the wiiiiiiiiinnnnn. 240's will spin circles around you :rofl: Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 s30 for the wiiiiiiiiinnnnn. 240's will spin circles around you :rofl: totaly, unless your trying to do a u-turn in an auto and fail to brake the tires loose. <_< still love em' though. Quote Link to comment
M240Z Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 yea my steering angle is horrible! I'll try and figure something out..I want to make a Nyan Cat drift video.haha Quote Link to comment
