I could be (and probably am) wrong but I think IJ is talking about breaking the laminar flow. He mentioned it in another FFIM build thread. I think it was the one where MK3Brent was working on a cast design. However I can't help explain what those "lumps and bumps" look like.
EDIT: Just...
IMO they will look OK as long as the spacing puts the outside of the rim close to the outside of the fender. A 40mm offset on a 7.5" wheel probably won't do that though.
Example: my rear wheels are 9.5" with 35+ offset and look close to flush with the side of the car. Do the math and they are...
I like them alright... though I have 19's so "too big" isn't the first thing I thought.
If you're interested in my opinion here it is: I would have gone for a lower offset in the front and rolled/flared the front fenders a bit. I think the rears would look much better with some real meat on...
Sorry guys, I really do need to get back on this thing... And I will, soon enough. I've been collecting parts here and there (the ones rs4rush mentioned) but I haven't really done any significant work lately.
This has been taking up a large chunk of my time. I actually have more progress than...
I took a picture of my car with 6"+ on it but then left them on my computer at home. I can't go back home until they clear the roads up a little more :(
Let me guess... did she recently turn 21?
That's what happened with my ex. 3+ years living together. I did end up getting her back (because I was the best thing that ever happened to her, like duh, obviously :biglaugh:) but in the end I realized that she wasn't worth it.
Listen to what...
Good good, getting ready to park it for the winter.
I have a question for you though: if you aren't going to have a 7M any more are you going to be getting rid of your bell housing? I need one. ALSO, I don't know where you're at but my girlfriend is on the west side until Sunday, so if you...
Depending on shipping I might be able to get 2 from you if that will get this thing going.
I would definitely like to see how both look with the Bomex sides and rears.
Thanks for all the measurements. There isn't as much of a height difference as I thought there would be. Given the stance of my car I would still definitely prefer the modified Gracer.
C'mon people, jump on this. Save me from having to buy and modify my own! lol
I really want the upper grill open (pre-89 type) and the contours of the Gracer T-2 don't really fit with that part cut out IMO. I have money in hand for as soon as this gets underway and I will keep it set aside unless you change your mind about the GB.
Also, I'm curious what the height of...
I would be interested in seeing the Gracer Type 2 mocked up. Especially a side view so that I can see how low it is.
Without seeing anything on a car I can say I would 100% get the pre-89 normal Gracer as soon as it was available. I would sell my car if I had to haha.
I would also...
I went to a party last night but I didn't get any pictures (other people did so I might be able to get a hold of those) but I'll also be going out next Friday/Sat so I'll be sure to get some then. Costume came out pretty good I think... for me being lazy and cheap about it hahahaha
