very nice quality work there.

did you change the gearbox?

[hachirokuGTV]

Yeah, was originally an A40 auto box. First converted to a K-50 (cable) and now a T-50 (hydraulic).

[hachirokuGTV]

Not much of an update being that im a slack bastad but anyway......

Rear coilovers fitted (6kg). Seeing as you cant usually get these without buying the whole kit I had to buy them. Can go 15mm lower max. Right now they are same height as TRD's with half a coil cut off. All good! 25mm spacers removed and gone to a good home as I wont need them when the 8.5j's are fitted.









Have a pair of new rear TRD 4.7kg springs for sale with half a coil removed (still captive)
Cheers!

Finally got something done.
Fitted short shifter with 15mm spacer, some interior stuff, some engine stuff but most importantly have finished wheels and final ride height! Had to put NCRCAs back in to space out the 14x7.5j +6 off. in the front with about 3 deg. neg. camber. Rear needs 15mm spacers too. In the long run will put 14x8.5j 0 off. from rear onto front with normal RCAs again and find some 14x9.5j 0 off. or 10j +15 off. on the rear.
Oh well, its something.
All thats left to do is paint, fit rear glass, some interior and a muffler somewhere in there to quieten it down a fraction.
Paint job will be 80's Super GT or Super Silohette inspired. Stripey, stripey.

Pics.











Strange how you thought 8.5j was so wide and then when you get them you want to go wider. My plan is to completely fill up the wheel arches with 15mm of wheel outside the guard and 10mm clearance inside.
