Gooood morning vietnaaaam!
Welcome to round 2!


Winter is coming, so is summer.
Only 5-6 months of time to make all the mods.

Nothing awesome on this update but, sooon...

Saturday, I got inspiration to do something.
I removed, hood, front fenders, front bumber, gas tank and some other small stuff.

Yesterday I dropped front axle off.
I ordered bearings for the new axle. 6 needle bearings = 110€ blink.gif




So, next time when I go to garage, I will start doing the Jig for the new axle.

Btw: Should this be in Builds gategory?

There can be 2cm's cut from front axle, so maybe I could take 1cm...
Then it will be against front apron biggrin.gif

Lets hope that, lower control arm will get clearance with new ball joint.
Thank god that, I buyed 7.5cm drop spindles. With them control arm are in better angle. And with stock spindles
it could not be that low.







Now 8x15 offset 11 front wheels are bit too out, because drop spindles increase track 8.5mm.
So I'm re-building them with "zero lip-style" aka center-outer lip-inner lip. But with lip. You know what I mean. So the offset will be ~21
Hmm... rear ones gonna have same thing done, maybe with that, there might be clearance to get 9x15 offset ~10 instead of 8.5x15 offset ~5

To those, who don't know how beetle beam with bag is constructed

Where I can buy inspriration...
Haven't done nothing in past 2 months. Thats really annoying.

Well. Tonight got some, when I opened facebook and saw that Stance Is Everything had posted this on their wall:


Maybe I'll drag myself into the garage tomorrow...

There's one problem. I'm broke as hell.
I need to finish my car before June. And Im still short of:
2x 2" outer lips, 2x 3" outer lips + new bolts and nuts for OZ's, Megasquirt, fuelpump and few sensors for that, better camshaft, copper hard lines for the trunk assembly etc. etc.....

So sponsor needed sad.gif I just have to do things I can afford....

I have only been fidling with my daily a little bit:


I accidently bought another set of OZ Vegas. 7x15 offset 33 and 8x15 offset 20 with 5x112 bolt pattern.
These's will be converted to 4x100 bolt pattern.
In miata pic theres type 3's origal 2.5" rear lip in test.

Unnecessary post.
Maybe tomorrow you see something new....

Unnecessary post again. Just fidling...




Those are rear wheels, well... front wheels now.
Tomorrow I'll order 3" lips for rear wheels and new bolts + nuts.
Next week I'm in vacation so, maybe I'll have some time to make rear bags
