i know that way of doing it but i am worried about cutting inside of tank to fit this fuel pump.
i haven't actually seen inside of fuel tank and not sure how bottom surface looks like.
this revised fuel pump came with an instruction that i need ford special tool to cut bottom surface without damaging.

My god. Good on ya for having the stones to put that spoiler on.
RE: wrc rally replica build thread - car dropped - moon111 - 04-15-2012
Can't stand those spoilers on a car that doesn't match. With the rest of the car built to match, I think it looks killer.

Uhhhh - he was paying you a compliment Leo.
BTW - why did the quarter panel come off?
RE: wrc rally replica build thread - car dropped - adamzx5 - 04-15-2012
Imo , that year of wrc rs was the best looking of them all. The stance and how everything flows together is just shweet. I cant wait to see this when its done. The intercooler is going to look so nice tucked in behind that front bumper.

because everyone knows duct tape is not meant to bond 2 materials permanently.
and i still need to cut some more around wheel well.
i already cut up around 2 inches but still there is less than 1 inch gap left when car is on ground.

i know. i had to say something when ppl say, "Can't stand those spoilers on a car that doesn't match".
i already heard enough multiple times.
i didn't create this design. i m just replicating.
i didn't throw random chinese ct, walmart special bling bling s**t on my car.
say same thing to sti owner who love world rally championship and they will do exactly same as i did.
my car had 10% lovers 90% haters. and still it is.
RE: wrc rally replica build thread - car dropped - moon111 - 04-15-2012
Sorry for any confusion, but this whole WRC thing is actually the exact route I'd go. I'm Finnish for crying out loud. About the only difference I'd do is go with a Mikko Hirvonen/Jarmo Lehtinen paint scheme to honor my nationality. I do have an Estonian in the family as well...so the Martin tribute is pretty cool as well. Although maybe not as cool as the Park tribute.
I tell you, kids they ruin your life! *Walks away dreaming about car projects that are no longer financially feasible.*
RE: wrc rally replica build thread - car dropped - konafocuswrc - 04-16-2012
Lol good thing i'm not married
Actually there's difference btw park and Nikko, not only schemes are different, bumpers are.
RE: wrc rally replica build thread - car dropped - konafocuswrc - 04-16-2012
lotta grinding and hammering to make wheel housing larger

RS RALLY BUILD.
RE: wrc rally replica build thread - car dropped - konafocuswrc - 04-17-2012
I looked at it and it was not complete copy of wrc..its keeping stock rear quarter panels and rear bumper. No hood vents and no roof scoop. I .might post my build thread on fj
