W bodies with the Wrong stock wheels

[94 olds vert]

Yup, that sounds about right. The VW forum I'm on I'm amazed at what these people do to those cars.

[RobertISaar]

and then stretch a tire about 3" too narrow over them to give them that oh-so-awesome prolapse look.

[AWeb80]

[RobertISaar]

blurg.

 

how about 2G MC with 3G MC SS wheels?

[DefEddie]

Correct me if i'm wrong,but I was sure that the TGP emblem goes on the door right above the ground effect.

The Audi and VW scenes are full of a bunch of wackjobs

Kind of a harsh generalization..

[Euro]

Yeah, not everybody does weird/stupid things to their cars...but a lot of the VW crowd are some of the strangest/WTF car enthusiasts out there IMO

[GnatGoSplat]

The only things stranger to me are donks and those Japanese guys that have wheels so negatively offset that they're almost horizontal.

[Disbass69]

I'm not really a fan of the people that drive VW either to be honest, but I really like the cars

Favorite part of that scene is the BBS rims. So beautiful. If I can ever afford them I will have the first grand prix on BBS RS

[Euro]

The BBS wheels would look good if the ding bats would put a correct tire size on them...and not have 4 inches of the rim sticking past the tire

GA's with 1/4in spacers

 

SOON...... not really these are back on the 04 and the 04 wheels are on the 442 now...looks awful lol cant wait to toss the black/polished Xlaces and 245/50 16 bfg's

[AWeb80]

damn, I was wondering what happened to this car. Been forever.

[Turbocharged400sbc]

its back

getting two built L67/32's currently

front L26/67 S1x/dbl roller/ssic/n*tb etc

rear is goin full boogie

[outonthetiles]

Do you have a build thread or some pics of your cressida?

some of the 442 is here: http://www.w-body.com/showthread.php/12910-Twin-V6-442!-back-on-track?p=1148700&viewfull=1#post1148700

 

all of my cressida is here (the thread was started as a joke poking fun at a guy talkin about swapping an old VW diesel into a prelude

 

the original motor was trashed anyways and parts are scarce as hell

[outonthetiles]

Awesome!

[Euro]

^^^you should join TCG man. There are a ton of 3800's there, and a lot of road racing guys

[Turbocharged400sbc]

Awesome!

 

you would think so but its a gigantic pain in the ass

 

keep in mind its the early celica supra/ae86/supra suspension....but on a wagon that weighs 3000lbs

 

parts are available but they are expensive and used parts market is nearly nonexistent...

 

some parts on the texas to cali craigslist. the cressida is a huge oddball...damn near anything can be found in japan, australia/nz

 

this thing sucks cause my only option is to completely modify the car

its cheaper for me to convert to a foxbody front suspension and brakes and 8.8 rear when the toyota 7.1" 4.10 axle blows apart.

 

toyota's blow

[Disbass69]

All the money into the engines.. and no lip taillights

Your car is sweet, another one of the reasons I got into wbody

[Turbocharged400sbc]

thanks. well most of the $ is goin into the rear engine since its contribution is far greater at the line

we actually have the lip and tails on my shelf, same box for years, i even picked up a chipped pass corner unit for swapping in with the battery kill switch

I can imagine. My buddy has an '86 mx72 wagon that he's modding a bit, he's always complaining that he can't find parts..
