Si's Track EP91 Build - XXR 530's - 03/04/14
RobSR replied to Si@Fiske's topic in EP91 Progress Blogs
Yea I'm surprised no one had done it before, had an eye on them for mine, but we needed something wide for this too, so they've gone on here. I think loads of people would of had them by now but none of the UK suppliers stock them it seems. -
Indeed! You'll have to pop by afterwork one evening!

AD08's are more a road tyre than a track tyre so it won't be those. I was looking at the Federals but they don't do them in the sizes we want.. It's going to be either R888, A048R's or the Dunlop DZ03 but we'd then have to go down to a 215.. -
So, the other day i decided to go and buy another Starlet. Got it as a little run around whilst the track car is being built with my brother. Got it for a pretty good price seeing as its an SR.. she is a little leggy with a fine 217k miles on, however its got years of Toyota history from day one. Engine runs sweet, however i wasn't going to expect a totally perfect car.. A few pics once home. First thing was to give it a good wash down, the paint looks fine in the pics, up close, its not great as its abit swirly, but a detail will get it all back. That'll be happening in a few weeks.

Haha of course! Undecided, was looking at R888's as they do a 45 profile in a 225 but they go off quite quickly, so back to the drawing board at the mo on that front. -

They're not the same wheel, they are the 8.25 +0 offset, plus they don't ship to england lol! -

They were more than that seeing as no one in england supplies them as far as I'm aware? Where have you seen them for that price? -
Taggy's cell had a walbro in it.

Yea back to the original question i have no idea, hook up a gauge inline is my suggestion.

Loads of people do it.. Most serious drag cars run this setup. I always thought it was abit odd but it is done often.

Damn you! Not 501, they are 530's. Don't think anyone has put them on an EP before? 8 should tuck on the front with camber and cruise fenders, there not a +0 offset, they are +20.. back might need a little work but that should be fine. -

So the package came today...Last piece of the puzzle before some fabrication can start We were going to keep it 'JDM' and go for Enkei RPF1's, however we couldn't get them in an 8J fitment. 300+ bhp and anything under 8J isn't ideal. Who can guess what style we went for? -
There all made by Kamak aren't they ?
-
Like Adam has basically covered id go with a re-worked GT(x)2871, imo you could get very close on a 2860 with a decent compression engine, built head and a competent ecu & mapper.

Managed to miss the delivery today haha Fail. Lets hope it comes tomorrow. -
Ed China is certainly not a Bellend and is very talented. If you knew anything about what he's made and the records he held you'd know that. I like the program but yes what they've done to the Rex is not good.
