That gauge pod looks so sick man

I'm sorry but think I may have to do that at some point too! Altough I'm not that on point with the paint and fibreglass so don't expect it to look any good haha

Thanks man, yeah go ahead! I only pinched the idea off of Nash and im sure others have also done it. It was so simple and I'm so over the moon how it came out. Can't wait to get them all wired up .

Loving the gauge pod dude!! Looking at doing something similar in my build

Keep up the good work. Cars looking spot on

Cheers swifty

Sweet car, looks very tidy and well keep. Reckon painting the intercooler black would look good.

Cheers, Na one thing I loath is black intercoolers, 9 times out of 10 they end up peppered with stone chips when people paint them, can't beat a nice shiny cooler behind the bumper imo. Still each to there own though

The only concern/worry I would have with doing that style gauge pod in the events, and it's always crossed my mind. If you ever have the blowers/heating on coming out the cabin door/dash vents (dash in this case obviously) do you just block up the vents in the dash with something to stop the heat from cooking the wiring?

Or do you just not bother with having the heating/blowers on and being a badman? Maybe it's just me I like my heating in the winter lol.

I have thought about that, but then is the air actually that hot lol? I don't think it is, is it? I've not bothered blocking anything off anyway. I'll soon find out if it melts anything haha

Doubt it would be as warm as those mounted on the dash getting cooked by the sun.

There SRB ones. They seem well made, usual prep before painted in a Fiber glass product but overall they look good. I'll be trial fitting them at the weekend

Very nice S14A. Congrats.
should be quite interesting to drive =)

Thanks! Yeah it keeps me entertained

Where are the fitted pics

Spent this weekend getting both wings trial fitted . They'll be staying unpainted for a month or two though. Here's a few snaps.






Overall I'm really happy with the outcome, for what they are they fit very well but that's not without a lot of messing about getting the panel gaps to line up. It's taken me all weekend to do both but that's with trimming the lip down for more clearance on each wing, refitting the arch liners etc.

Just need to get it to run without rubbing now lol.

[Chriscooke]

They look like a real good fit. What did you have to do to get the gaps to line up? Easy enough to drill all the holes etc? I need new wings so may go for some of these too

Just had to fiddle around with each one a lot, I started off fixing down the bottom in the door shut, then the middle one in the engine bay and balanced out the 2 gaps down the door edge and bonnet edge and tweaked them from there. The only thing I will say is the fit around the sidelights isn't best. I've managed to get one to fit sweet, but one needs abit more work.

But put it this way I wouldn't hesitate to buy another set so there not that bad

Looks awesome with the kit mate

Give me a shout if you want to sell your old wings when the new ones are painted

[fifi]

any rubbing on the front arches?

[L16JAY]

any rubbing on the front arches?

:lol: Of course there is!!

Cheers Dave . Least ours aren't identical now haha. The passanger wings bent mate . And the drivers ones had a heavy roll/flare so may not match in with your other one :/

any rubbing on the front arches?

Yeah it does still catch, I've trimmed the lip away as much as possible, but ideally I'd like to go wider on the front so may raise it up a couple mm to try and solve it!

:lol: Of course there is!!

Haha you know it man

Haha yea this is true, but looking at yours makes me want a kit

Its the drivers I'm after (I ruined my brand new painted one at Dakota drift ). Heavy roll is fine as mine are too

Although I'm interested to see how you get on with the overfenders, always wanted to keep metal wings but might be my only option...
