jeezus christ!!.........speedjunkie...that is one sinister looking FD!! I love the stance and the meaty tires!!! How did you get that rear fender like that? a fender roller and a lot of pull??? or added a flare there? Kudos again!

 

why?!

 

Eric, the car looks nuts

Will call ya this week to catch up

 

wow Eric!!! looks amazing, im jealous!

 

speedjunkie: Loving the sanai kit - Just need the front fenders now ;P
Crazy wheel/tire fitment..

HDP: I think you're alone there....

 

I have a post in this very thread years/pages ago that explains why...

 

That's the main reason!

 

damn, that **** is HAWT speedjunkie.

 

SpeedJunkie, Are you using wheel spacers.

Tires look real nice sticking out like that....

Let me know the brand which wheel spacers you are using, if infact you are using them...

 

I love the meaty tires but how does that destroy your fender? I've been running a 245 on offset 37 in the front and my car isn't thst slammed but it only took 2 days to have it bend the fender lip out.

 

SARD FPR you have installed there is PURE PORNO man!!!!
It also looks as if you could have retained your A/C even with the BIG-OL-IC

 

now that's desktop material... Thanks!

 

Montego--- is the fd back up and running????

 

Thanks! Yep, just a fender roller and pulled the **** out of it. then used a hammer and dolly, then filled and sanded.

Thanks buddy! Sounds good!

Why are you jealous?! Look at yours!!! Haha. And why the hell did you sell it? Thanks though!

Thanks! Yeah I actually have my name down on the list for Shine to make them, but I'm not sure if he will. I really think I need to pull the front wheels out a bit and go wide fenders so it doesn't look so weird like it does now haha. Looks like it just has a fat *** and no ******* haha.

Thanks mang! I happen to like yours alot too! I really like that last pic you posted! That IS wallpaper material!

Negative, that's all wheel. I'm thinking about either using spacers on the front with wide fenders or just getting a wheel with more offset for up there. I'm not crazy about using spacers but I guess I will if I have to.

I tried to pull the front fenders out more but it just wasn't having it. Or maybe I just wasn't patient enough, not sure. The driver's side was actually eating the fender at first but I took it to get aligned and had just a touch of negative camber added for the time being, until I get wide fenders for the front. Even so, the camber I'm running on the front isn't even that much, it's like -0.1 or something. I don't think the back is much either but from the pics on this page it looks crazy negative.

Thanks! I like the look of it too. Good thing you didn't see the mounting bracket for it though, that I made out of scrap metal I got from work hahaha.

Well my A/C never was that cold or worked that great, and when I rebuilt the engine last year and forgot to cap off the separator or whatever, I decided to just pull it haha. I don't have heat right now either because I cracked the heater core at the same time. Some days I think it was a really bad idea to go all black and not have A/C though lol. Could be worse though, at least I'm in Colorado and not anywhere in the south.

 

Zanthrax, love the wheels! Look perfect on ur car!!!

Eric (Speedjunkie), AAWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! *in a godly like voice*

 

pfft no

 

Okay, this is going to sound dumb...Are those the Nitto drag radials? And if so, am I correct in seeing them on all 4 corners? If so, I'm kind of confused...lol

 

Nevermind...Just looked at the site. Same tread as the drag radials...

 

Drag tires are a different animal altogether:

Yep, the world's first AWD FD. LOL Just playing, but you already know that. Actually I doubt my claim of the world's first is even correct.

Yeah SUPPOSEDLY these are built differently, even though they look the same. Stiffer sidewalls and stickier tread, I think that's what the site said anyway. They just look exactly the same.

 

no pics of the engine just yet, i am currently waiting for my car to get back from rebuild and single turbo conversion.

 

What bumper is on the car that is second from the right? Looks real good!

 

i Spotted this FD in Athens, Greece parked at the Hotel next to ours near Glyfada.
Anyones one here?

 

^^ the more I see the chargespeed widebody the more I like... I think some fenders are in my near future lol

 

Not a fan of the front wide fenders for an FD, nor do I think there is ever really a need to fit more than a 285 tire on the front (which you can do with stock fenders), but that rear flare does look very nice. I was never a fan of the Pettit rear flares, I think they look too exaggerated and ruin the smooth lines of the car, but a subtle, yet aggressive flare right above the arch does look nice.
