How big are the discs?

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

If it rubs on the front, sort it. Got a long way to go before it looks anything like foxys old one.

 

[Reyes]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Front really needs to go down. Back looks tripe with the front like that.

 

[Adz]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

the discs are 285mm im going to take the rear up to 70mm as it was just abit of an experiment as i had those spring lol it will be changed on monday with new wheels so dont worry about it...its not staying like this

 

[Plummer]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

You will probably need some spacers on the front an take the arch liners out to stop the rubbing.

 

[f0xy]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

I had 7mm spacers, no arch liners and modified the bumper bracket to get it lower

thats not much work at all, go out with your C-spanner, be a man and winde those front coilovers down another 2 inches

 

[traffmeister]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

not keen, get it just down liek 40mm...way too low

 

[Adz]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

SOrry but that just looks daft. Raise the back 20mm and it'll be a nice looking car!

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Aye 20mm up and it would be mint. Is that bumper just in primer the now?

 

[bmh.01]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Will look well with the rear raised some and get that bumper painted! Running round in primer is not cool.

 

[Adz]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

im getting the bumper and all the side strips and door handles painted very soon im going to put the v-maxx rear springs in with out the adjusters then i think it will sit alot better as it will be 70mm, 20mm higher.

 

[Robclio98]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

[ROB91]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

is the back going lower? looks good that mate, cant wait to see it with the 1.2's on

 

[Dave..]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

This isn't really going to be a remake is it?

 

[danjf]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

will look really gud with the 1.2's on

 

[Mitchell]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

The rear is too high now, need to get it in the middle of before and after

 

[Hutchie]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

thats the biggest 20mm i have ever seen

 

[Adz]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

yeah im thinking of getting 80mm custom spring as they will be abit higer than the 90mm

 

[Hutchie]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

i dont know where you are getting your numbers from
as my car has eibach prolines (suppose to give you -15) and my car sits same as yours with -70's lol

i have some apex rear springs that sit nice and low pm me

 

[Addz]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

I thought it looked pretty good dead low actually

 

[Adz]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

im thinking of going back that low as i miss it lol

 

[davers]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

[Ollie82.]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Im sorry but Jord did it so well that i don't think anyone else can do it again.....its just not the same.

Jords was so low that whilst on the way to Sarahs in the Isle Of Man, negotiating a nasty little speed bump, it ground out and knocked it out of gear.
The original 'Get Low'. Never to be bettered.

yes mate because you have s**t loads of weight in the back you big gay

 

[Chris205]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

as for 'making it look as good'

well you've already failed as the colour of foxy's was lovely, I personally would love to see a grey 172 replica, but I honestly dont think it will look as special in silver

 

[Adz]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Today was a great day getting the standard alloys off and getting the 15inch 7x15 1.2 pro race alloys on. This was all done up at r-tec the guys loved it and they even took couple of picture of the car in front of the shop the tyres are 195/50r15 yoko parada 82v they are just epic. Only thing that i want to do is get the rear of the car a bit lower and take out the front arch liners as i wheels rub on full lock other than that im very happy :approve:

 

[danjf]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

yeh it does look awesome!!

 

[The Boosh!]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Looks a lot better now mate.

Looked w**k as f**k on the standard wheels

 

[Adz]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

how low on the rear should i be looking at as i think 80mm would look goood as my 90mm custom spring are abit to low... am i right ? :S

 

[Jason_E]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

That looks so much better!!

 

[not normal dan]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

[Hazza]

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread
