Thanks guys, yeah I think it will be awesome in white

and it would be great to run the 12's. I will need fairly wide over fenders maybe 75mm or so. :thumbs: .

The carbon roof can be fitted over the top or as a complete replacemment. The way a guy I know fitted his, was to cut four square sections out of the skin and then use a thin cutting disc to trim the carbon panel to fit. It fits under the trims and rubber at the front. I think. I will find some pics and puut them up.

I look forward to driving this car. I will keep you all posted.

ok here is some of the text and pics from my mates rb26 uras gt s13. Probably one of the better s-bodies built and its still a work in progress. its already 550hp soon to be rb30 700+hp. lol.

garry attacked the roof with a grinder tonight , cleaned the edges of the carbon roof skin and slid it in place. fits very well and looks the nuts. got to bond it in place next.

if you have a spare week the link to his million page thread is below:

Cheers that's good to know. I don't want to run a lot of camber if I can help it. 245 is a fair stretch on a 12j. I look forward to trying to mount tyres that size.

if nthe lip is flat you just mount the tire then air it up and it seats just mine. also federals run big so they fit better than a falken might. Ive fit federals, nexens, goodyears and something else i dont remeber.
