My widebody is here!

You just need to lower it a bit and they look fantastic. Alexis's yellow widebody looks fantastic in the flesh.

Or get the 8" Fronts and 9" Rears

I've got 9s and 10s under my stock narrow body.

Surely you can go even bigger on a wide body?

Phil

You can get 12's on the widey's rear with the right offset. I had 9's on the rear of my JA and had a couple of inches room left in the guard.

Glen, Apart from being LHD, USA widey's came in a few different spec versions. They also came in an early and later series, the first being 1986/87 and second 1988/89, with upgraded ECU's and driveline. Also, they were sold as Dodge/Chrysler Conquests as well as Mitsubishi Starions. They had leather interiors and roof mounted sliding seat belts (similar to Merc and BMWs). The later 1988/89s had a sports handling package (SHP) which included wider 8" and 9" wheels.

Mick, I cannot disagree with you there. The only other stock bodystyle I like is the FD RX7.

Yeah, I wish I could trade you my 86 widebody for yours! Mine's LHD, of course, and I want RHD BIGTIME! Actually, 86 was the last year for the front seatbelts being on the doors, instead of automatic, like the 87/88/89 models. Mine is a Plymouth Conquest, and my wife's is the same year and color. RED. One excellent trait that yours has is the fact that the underneath doesn't look damaged from lifting with a jack (between the front and rear wheels). I see SO many that are bent up there. Congrats!!! :beer

Have you had it out at WSID yet??

If so what time did you run?


If you want a helmet, I can lend you one... I live 10mins from WSID.

PM me and I'll give your my mobile number if you want.

[NXTIME]

TOMSUN, yes, I have been to WSID already just to see what it would do. I can tell you that a 100% stock unboosted automatic widebody will do a 17.1@76MPH :D:D:D

Thanks for the offer. PM sent.

[NXTIME]

thanks Bandy :) Just needs a couple of things and it will be just about perfect.

[scum]

17.1@76MPH????
TOMSUN, he dosent need the loan of a helmet, he needs help to push!!! :D

[NXTIME]

Are you offering scum? :D

I think the exhaust/cat is blocked :D unfortunately the cat is right behind the turbo in the dump pipe, so a complete exhaust system may be needed soon.

That and a manual conversion ;)

Lucky bugger !!! The only way it can look any better is if it was parked in my garage next to my silver J B :D :D :D

[NXTIME]

I am sure we can come to some sort of arrangement ;)

[WidebodyWoody]

NXTIME, take the dump pipe off, and gut it. Just get a large metal pipe, and bash it into it, and get it all out. They do it all the time in the US and it make a hell of a difference especially if it is blocked.
