Thank god it doesn't look like crap anymore.

 

it still has a very mutated look to it...
I think the wheels are the biggest weirdness with it right now...
????

 

Yeah I'm not really a big fan of the rims either..... the spokes come right out to the lip, just doesn't look right when a widebody should have a wicked offset rim.

 

Just out of curiosity, What wing is on this red fc ? :P

 

a ******* huge one.

 

could somebody post a link to the tripoint kit or is it even still available?

 

I dont know if you can get it thru tripoint still, I have never seen/found it on their site.

RaceOnUsa sells replicas of them on ebay from time to time, used to be "3-point kit" and more recently has been sold as the "type 338 kit"

I love the tripoint widebody, its hard to beat a set of 295s up front and 335s out back on an FC! wow!

 

Does anybody know how much the Tripoint kit is and if they even make it anymore? I didnt see it on their website.

 

IIRC, Raceonusa made replicas, I don't remember if they still do.

 

looks like a knights sports rear spoiler with a GT wing added to it

 

this is my favorite thread ever created..

 

Theres something weird about that area between the rear tire and door jam.

 

i have a 88 gtu and am going to back half it with a nine inch. i want to run a 14.5 inch rear tire, but am unsure how big of wide body i should run. can somebody help?

 

14.5 is pretty big. The widest I know of right now is the tripoint and the custom one that juiceh is running.

 

yeah 12" is pretty common for wheels on the tripoint setups, but I dunno if juiceh can run 2" wider than that, of course a 13" wheel will fit a 14.5" tire, sort of...

 

im not going to run a tripoint setup i am goin to run a 4-link with a solid axle

 

what kind of body kit is this called where i can find it?

 

Tripoint with a 99 spec front end.

 

that was a custom 1-off front bumper, actually they made a few, but they are long gone.

and a tripoint set of front and rear fenders
dont know the hood, that may be from the same guy who made the front bumper.

unique, kinda weird too, never really liked it.

 

nice mark

 

"87 turbo II"; any info on the makers of the kits pictured on the first and/or last FC you have pictured??

Tri-Point no longer offers their wide-body kit for the FC, and thats a cryin' shame cuz i certainly did want one...or two...

I really do like the way those rear flares work into the doors in 87 turbo II's pics (1st & last cars pic'ed), with my luck, they're JDM items...

 

you can get tripoint replicas from raceonusa, theyre often on ebay and you can find their contact info there.

 

LOVE the way the rear flares extend into the door on the red FC above, and again on first page; as well as the blue FC...not sure about the vent in the blue rr flare though...

 

its a modified Mazdaspeed FD front bumper

 

wrong, it was actually a kit produced for the fc to sort of replicate the mazdaspeed bumper.... not very attractive on any car except the blue one imho
