    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    I am very interested in this, mainly because of the 275 in the rear and 225 in the front. The sidewalls will be very interesting to see on the actual car.

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    Okay.. those may be a bit too wide for me. I want them to be exactly set in so that the outside edge of the sidewall meets the fender wall... I had tires that would rub if a "bigger" bump was driven over and I hated it.. lol

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    Thats the exact setup I am doing on mine.. what tire size are those.. they look perfect. Also.. are you lowered? The only difference between yours and mine (bodywise) is sideskirts and rear bumper addons I have. Sharp car!

    Project 88 MKIII - A Calgary build

    The whale tail is a bit of an issue because I got fiberglass. It was very porous (as was the front bumper/sideskirts/rear bumper addons and headlight covers). Not sure, but I think if I would have went carbon fiber I would have had less trouble. (painted) The rear addons are just that.. no...

    Project 88 MKIII - A Calgary build

    Damn winter sucks.. lol. I put the sunshade on yesterday and left the cover off.. and.. it snowed.. (just a dusting really). Too cold and too "sandy" on the roads to drive.. but I stand in the house and look down on the car and dream about the rest of the work. Takes a lot of patience to get...

    What a dead hole!

    Actually, I will be 3M taping the front end. I noticed that with the broadness of the nose now, the rocks hit dead on. Its fibreglass so is easy paint fix, but I think 3M tape will fix that up nicely. Going to 3m Tape + undercoat the wheelwells as well. 3M tape on the lips and undercoat beneath...

    Hi !!! My 1991 Turbo "Doubledeuce"

    Two things I like on this car.. the wheels and the 3.0 GT Turbo. Nice unique style. Those wheels rub at all? I missed anything about rolling the fenders.

    I did 5 in 3 months. I thought I was very smart. The only problem was parking.. lol. Had to part with 3 of them only because of that. Winter is a good time to pick them up cheap.

    What a dead hole!

    Amazingly hard not to drive my MK3 in this weather... sigh... the only thing stopping me from going out is the tiny rocks that cover the sidestreets.. lol. ... and then I think... "am I insane?" hiding from tiny rocks??

    I have those slow kids by my house too.. lol. But my neighbor on the corner comes out and yells slow down when I come down the alley (I am over 45... I think I have figured driving out.. lol) simply because I have the car in first gear and doing a bit of high revs .. now.. to add to this...
