since no1 replied in the this thread: http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/showthread.php?t=292618 was wondering if any1 with experience could tell me how much I would be looking at to get that kit installed professionally? Cheers.
I'd be surprised if you could get it done for $2k and actually look good. Pretty much have to respray half the car too.
I didn't say you could do it for $2k, I just said it would cost more than 2k. That's just for the fitting. :zlove:
It could get really expensive as you'd probably be liable for the installers future therapy requirements.
I want to install a wide-body kit in which the wheels will extrude at least 4 inches on each wheel. I read that using thick spaces will create "negative chamber"? or something which I guess will effect the handing. To achieving my goal, does anyone know if its worth getting 10" deep dish wheels or will 100mm (4inch) spacers be sufficient since I will just be cruising anyway. my widebody will be for my custom Z Vigor kit, but I may hack it to fit 2+2 Z's and it would look like the following. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Leh8wHn9HKg
Yep 4 inch spacers should do you nicely, i think you should go get some made up right now, shouldnt be too expensive. Then go test them out first thing, a few high speed runs should do it.
Yeah, but with 4" spacers you'd need to consider hubcentric or floating style. If you're going to suggest him to do high-speed runs you could at least inform him of the dangers of hubcentric spacers. You'd be after the 'floating' style spacers if you're going to fill guards that wide Arash. Realistically you'd probably want a really low offset as well as the spacers, to really fill the guards. That'd be the best setup for what you're after, I think. Can't wait to see results!
Other members should be wise to the fact that my bastard Z designed car is not appreciated to live its modified life to the fullest :zlove: Thanks for the input, I should really have my wheels setup before I size out a widebody and I think a combination of deep dish wheels and spacers will be the best choice in terms of cost and decent results. I think I'll need at least $1500 for used wheels, ~$300 for spacers and 800 for coil-overs.
