maz77 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 ARB's would be the way foreward I would have thought. I am susprised how your wheels fill the arches. someone will say "have you got spacer". why did you go for same size front and rear or am I just going blind? you gonna have to strip the Zed to bare bone to get any weight saving or start buying CF body pannels which will cost the earth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I am susprised how your wheels fill the arches. someone will say "have you got spacer". No they won't, he just bought the right offsets Car looks great, really nice parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzee Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Looking good. Are you enjoying the change over? I'm a bit surprised you are allowed to use bolt in cages at track days over there. Will you go a full cage at some point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maz77 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 No they won't, he just bought the right offsets Car looks great, really nice parts it looks spot on. the right wheel size and the right hight for me. you mentioned its 18" 9.5 et 20, is that front or rear or both? what tires are you using and how are they performing on the road and track mate?

bronzee Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 .Cusco roll cages get a bit of stick on the american forums as they are not approved for SCCA/HPDE or whatever they do. However, several sanctioning bodies in Japan certify it and it's D1 approved in USA and Europe I believe. End of the day I use the car for 'track days' which are non competitive...if the worst really happened then I'm confident the cage would hold up. We're not allowed to use bolt in cages at Motorsport NZ (MANZ) events either. Your comment about Japan is valid, as 2 years ago one of the Japanese teams shipped over their 350 to compete in the Targa Tour NZ showed up with a bolt in cage, to be told that they get a fully welded in cage installed & certified pronto or they wouldn't be racing. They did, and were back last year too. I didn't mean my intial comment to come across as rude, I was more interested that's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
