Looking pretty hot, I love the meat in the rear

looking good man keep it up.

I cringe everytime I see people ruining perfectly good quarter panels.
Is there a company making oem metal quarter panels for our cars already? It'll be needed very soon.

TheRealSy90 · 03-06-2017, 02:55 PM

Why exactly do you need "326 power" springs specifically? You can order swift springs in any length you want, and it's a much better spring.

Yeah, that makes sense

I know you're after a certain style, and don't get me wrong I enjoy a low car as much as the next guy, but it's also nice to drive your car!!! Sounds like your car will be a beached whale or potentially underground? Haha

Also, who did you cut so much metal out of the quarter panels??

rawgarage · 03-07-2017, 02:11 AM

Closing up those quarters should be interesting

DJTTon · 03-07-2017, 10:54 AM

How are you planning on sealing the edges? Id be worried about water getting in. I think that was the intention of the question.

TheRealSy90 · 03-07-2017, 11:50 AM

The inside of your car is going to get so damn dirty. At the very least I'd seal up the openings that go to the interior, keeps smoke dirt and shit out of the inside. I think that's what he was really talking about.

Damn, not sealing those gaping holes is a terrrible idea

hanzbrady · 03-07-2017, 02:06 PM

One tire blowout and you're gonna realize why those get sealed up reeeeal quick.

ehhhregartless · 03-07-2017, 05:34 PM

When the tread picks up rocks from a gravel patch/road. Such sacrifice. Sucks that the fresh white interior won't be white again. I applaud your efforts.

BRAWL SPEEDSTAR · 03-08-2017, 03:39 PM

loving this build so far, the attention to detail and "period correct" style is great! but like everyone else I couldn't help but be saddened when you cut your quarters lol
but considering how the rest of the car is looking, i bet the car will look incredible

can't wait for more updates !

BRAWL SPEEDSTAR · 03-09-2017, 03:50 AM

when I say "period-correct style", I'm referencing the style of your build; the wheels, the inspiration, the parts, and the plan all fit the period the car was produced and known for. Like old-school 90's to early 2000's drift scene.

This car so far feels like something I'd see out of an early Drift Tengoku video or something, just with much more detail haha

AscendaShogun · 03-09-2017, 04:04 AM

Id definitely recommend sealing off the trunk and all those smaller holes from the outside. Its a bit more effective and safer than sectioning off your car.

Supraman127 · 03-09-2017, 04:30 PM

Fucked this shit up real fast. Bravo.

Jez · 03-09-2017, 05:19 PM

Opinions LOL.......

Pblesh85 · 03-10-2017, 09:19 AM

I like the overall look and dig the wheels. I really think the QP should be closed up though. The road noise and dirt and grime will get EVERYWHERE.

Just my 2cents
