No where near happy with it yet, and had actually forgotten about it till this thread came up again. Roll bars need straightening more than anything, and boot lining sorted... but getting there!

Needs roll-bar mounted spotlights Chris!
That looks mint Ali...great bodykit...love that...but...FAR too much camber. That's useless amounts of camber...looks like ~25 degrees!

The guys in the states who drift 240s (including one amateur national champion, doncha know...the AE86 and S13 boys DON'T like being beaten by a brick

) are running perhaps 8 degrees at the most. The important thing is to be able to adjust the camber when you're doing extreme lowering. Lower too far, and all the angles get really cranky. One amusing side effect on 240s is the rear wheel ends up too far forwards

I'll dig out a pic sometime.
I've done a few over the years, but I've now lost some of my favourite ones. I've never really taken the time to do any of them properly though - they've just been 10 minute jobs to illustrate a point.
Here's 340_singh's one...

Lol, James don't worry it was intentionally over exagerated, theres quite a few 2D projection ones about like that on the net, all of which are running ridiculous camber like mine

, i'm sure the rear camber isn't far off on some of ours lol stupid axle!
cheers

Fair play Ali

The rear axles are famous for ruining toe-in (or out, more to the point)!
You're all very cruel to poor Mick.

I was actually thinking at the meet that his front end was looking pretty good with the spotlamps, grille, and 'fading out' graphics. I'm still not a huge fan of the sunstrip or the badge sections of the wings, but the front end looks good.
cheers
