it suck because I have my eyes on a nice swan neck wing that would fit nicely on the back of Megan

I just need to comeup with money !!! It wont be this year

The reason why I actually want to switch is that the wing is getting a bit small for the future plans

love the Kognition ... they are making one for me right now should have it in about 10 days

have you checked with him to get a wider one ? or would it be a totally different maker ?

What? Anymore downforce it will pull up the asphalt. But I will be getting a new wing sometime. The one I have is cheap. I want a rear mounted one to the frame like you see on the GTR without the cost.

Dont worry I will take as much downforce as I can

For those that think itz overkill for an N/A setup because more downforce is also more drag.
I totally agree with that....

im not building the aero kit for Megan with the current power in mind but I will have to deal with it for 2014.

I now remember why I never continued into any bodywork job in my younger age... damn I hate doing that stuff !!!

For the pass week, I've been working in the garage and it seem like I haven't done much !

- rear right quarter panel is now made, it just need some finishing up the edges, adding reinforcement and brackets for the side panel.
- New suspension in, which took almost a day because I had a damn headache !
- The AP BBK is removed for rebuilt and resurfacing in the next few weeks.
- Almost done with all of the diffuser bracket.
- The rear bumper cover is nearly done installing, I couldn't finish since I left a tool at home ! ;/

and then this

this is the first part of a 2 pieces mold

That's incredible that you're capable of doing your own body work and fabrication, kudos.

no kidding, thanks

I love doing everything myself the only problem is I dont always have the right tools for the job, which suck !
There is soo much more I could do, its all about money in the end.

I cant fabricate anything to sell to make money ,, no body like having race car parts ,, right ?
still have the whole exhaust setup for sale

Hey, I was looking at Cusco's LSD stuff, looks like they all specify they're meant as replacements for VLSD on the cusco-usa site here: Vehicle Results . Does that mean these work with the existing unequal-length stub axles from the VLSD?

yup..

Cusco LSD re-use your VLSD stub axles .. which are the unequal-length

Hmmm, that and they make a specific model for the AT carrier may push me over the edge to just getting the Cusco (I was already on the fence). That means I don't have to go shop for a new MT housing, I can just buy LSD + gears (+bearings, + oil seals?) and swap it out in my existing pumpkin.

Weekend Update !

It was a very slow week and weekend, I guess I was a bit tired of working on the car the week before in the cold from -20 to +3 Celsius and almost 8 to 12 hours a day (with break time of course)

For the skeptic here we go with the main part of the rear right quarter panel.

It weight in at 2 lbs 14.5 oz.

Almost done! Some trimming left and then a final epoxy coating + clear coat.

GaleForce · 03-23-2014, 08:42 PM

Shaping up nicely.
