That's where I got mine. Turnbuckles are used for all kinds of things like reinforcing gates and so on. They're made in different sizes, and out of steel and aluminum.

Just installed 17x9.5 Enkie RPF1 (16.3 lbs). 38mm offset.

Matt@highflow · 11-06-2009, 11:19 AM

It is a Saleen. I modified it so it was removable.

drudis · 11-06-2009, 12:24 PM

Ditto... Cervini (urethane) Saleen airdam, as i smashed the fiberglass one to pieces...

I opened the radiator opening up before install:

Step it up, get some dzus fasteners! Bolts belong on a gate

foraye · 11-06-2009, 03:58 PM

Darius,

thats an interesting pic of the cevini air dam...I have an Original Saleen piece circa 1995 and it did not have the brake duct molding hose funnel on them...did you do that or is it from cervini?

drudis · 11-06-2009, 04:05 PM

The brake duct square-to-round, and the opening of the radiator (top height) was all custom work.

The old way, was a lot of duct tape... (and looked like %$#@)

Ok...another good job...you've been at it for a minute!
I do look at your images long and hard...hope that comes across the right way! LOL

Simple 4" radiator hose clamp onto the Saleen airdam, ditto on the brake backing plate.

My question was how did you attach the brake ducts onto the Saleen airdam? Or did yours come with them?

Post #46 states custom Saleen airdam work to convert square-hole to round-hole to fit brake hose onto.
Post #43 shows photo.

Matt@highflow · 11-25-2009, 06:51 AM

hahaha I didnt do the slit under neath the molding and i maxed it out just to see what was up needless to say I put a "dimple" in the fender its a good thing I have another one laying around. Have not messed with it any more still working on tuning and getting the car running/driving good but I am for sure going to get the new axles and get the wheels on the car within the next few weeks.

turbo2256 · 12-02-2009, 12:14 AM

Figured I could fit 12" or better on the front and 14s or more on the rear with this set up.

indy2000 · 12-02-2009, 01:06 AM

who's the little person sitting on the engine?

Matt@highflow · 12-02-2009, 02:29 AM

what fenders are those?

I am being held up yet again yanked the motor out to some small misfortune and adding more compression so maybe i will get to mess with the fenders in soem of my down time

turbo2256 · 12-02-2009, 02:42 AM

Maier Racing ..Think thats how its spelled its the 3" flair version. two styles of it HD for street LT weight for racing ..shown the HD as it was also a daily driver at times

Sick89coupe · 12-02-2009, 03:54 AM

My HRE's are 18x9.5 w/6.75 bs but i havent mounted them yet as i've been waiting on my car forever to come back from paint. I think they'll be fine with the 94/95 spindles and a small spacer but I hope I dont have to do any fender stuff when I do get the car back.

Nice wheels, mind if I ask where you ordered them from? I checked Tire Rack, however I can only find a 22mm offset. Are you using any adapters to keep the wheels centred i.e. I heard that these wheels are not hub centric.

Thanks,

Thanks,

I bought them used but they are in excellent condition. This place has a great price http://www.1010tires.com/wheel.asp?w...heelmodel=RPF1 ($216 ea plus shipping)
A friend got a local Discount Tire to match the shipped price. I am not using any adapters.
