Uber Deaf One Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I see you have window cranks laying around in the car..... I did too for a while Lost one of the little clips that hold the passenger side window crank in, and didn't even have any for the back windows (4 door 510) Dealt with that for a couple months... then finally just a couple weeks ago got around to getting more pins and getting them all installed correctly.

ComicArtist Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 ^ yep that's how it is for my drivers side. Gotta hunt around for the crank to roll it up/down Quote Link to comment
Ratty260z Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 spinwerkes for wheels might be an option basically they make custom aluminum wheels like the diamond racing wheel style and about the same cost. Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 If diamond doesn't finish mine this week I might check them out. Bored tonight so I used some body filler on the cracks in the welds of the camber plates and smoothed them up and primed them. Also cut up some intercooler pipe and fabbed an intake.

JZ33 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 have you test fitted your flares? Quote Link to comment
Stupid_fast Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Looking good! Do those T3 adapters work with 9-bolt steering wheels?? I want one! Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Mocked up the flares when I got them, they'll take some trimming but should do the trick. I don't think the T3 extenders work with 9 bolts, just six. Momo, Sparco, and Nardi patterns. ANNNNNDD just heard from Diamond, wheels will be here TOMORROW. ITSABOUTDAMNTIME So, they'll be going on tomorrow. Quote Link to comment

ComicArtist Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Yupp, going to check out some tires tonight. Getting cheap used ones, so if they don't fit like I want them to I won't be out $400. Trying 205/55r15's, so when my wheels come in tomorrow I can just go have them mounted and get to cutting out my quarters. Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted March 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 They've arrived. Got some 195/60's but nobody would mount em so I returned em. Picking up some 205/50's tomorrow Quote Link to comment
JZ33 Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 why would no one mount them? Quote Link to comment
JZ33 Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 ive never had that problem... the couple shops I go to are stretching tires all day... Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Pretty much liability issues. Most of them said it was impossible to fit a 195 on a 10, I was like nuh uh and showed em pictures and they were just like we can't do it. Sooo I'm going with a 205. Oh well. I need an alignment.

Tristin Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 How long did it take for you to get your diamonds? Im ordering some tonight. Quote Link to comment
jalen Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 FUCKING DIAMOND FUCKING RACINGQuit responding to my emails. Last week they promised me a tracking number by Monday. It's Tuesday. I have no tracking number. I emailed them last night, they're ignoring me. Planning on calling them tomorrow. Telling me if they can't finish my wheels by Thursday and overnight them I'm taking my money back and going to get something else. This is getting kind of ridiculous. I kinda feel like they should've told me they didn't have the material to make the wheels when I ordered them six weeks ago, not last week. Quote Link to comment

I was hoping to order them tonight/tomorrow and have them by Thursday. I figured for a stock sized rim a week was an adequate amount of time to ship a rim. Quote Link to comment
JZ33 Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 for a stock sized rim maybe... his were "special order" for the 15x10's ( I THINK)... just call and ask? Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 That makes me feel better. I emailed them tonight and will call tomorrow. Quote Link to comment
