K-Break VIP Toyota Majesta UZS141 by Aoshima

[sandboarder]

In discussion with Slowly a while back and I said something about crossing over car cultures and styles. A few weeks later I had some very nice Simmon FR style wheels to Australian our a VIP build.



Now the hard part choosing the right kit and figuring out how to do the wheels justice. Here’s what I’ve decided on



The basic mock



Because I’m impatient I super glued all the suspension to the chassis and picked some random 19” wheels for an OOB mock up. PS it is Monday after all







Now the fun stuff will start happening. It needs more camber, demon camber so I’ll make up a 15 degree template and will push the wheels out from the bottom. This will stuff all the fitment up. So I may need to either put the tops in or do VIP build style body work. Also the rear end is to high but I’ll lower it AFTER the camber so I know where I’m up too.

Sweet wheels and car to put them under.

If you are not worried about the chassis or suspension detail, may I suggest going with brass straight axles. That would make it super easy to get the camber.
Dont have the material, time or patience bring it round and il help you set it up how you want.

Well il see what I can dig out for a mock.

The printed rims look cool.

Well I didn’t expect that. The front end is 90% done. -15 degrees of camber. Just needs the steering rack but modified

Crude but gets the job done. Hopefully the rear is as easy otherwise I might have to take you up on the brass rod idea

[Luke]

As we sometimes say, do what ever it takes to get them low or stanced, no one see's the underside except ourselves. Form over function

Pretty frustrating time with this one this afternoon. I forgot one important factor and everything is pretty much wrong

Anyway here is the stock rear and then the modified rear.



3mm spacing because the rear had less camber then the front.



Too much camber now



Now none of this is an issue until I realise the wheels are hitting the body hard!! I should have notice this a lot sooner so I trimmed the top strut mount to get even more camber and it still won’t tuck.

Your probably “what the big deal?” Well because the wheels fault they raise the car by a massive 4-5mm which in scale is huge!! I need to get these rear wheels to tuck or I’ll need to cut the body. Then I’ll also have too much camber, need to take out the 3mn spacer and use 2mm and also readjust the front to match

No wonder I stop building cars

You know whats up, so just keep adjusting until you get the look.

I just need to find something else to cut out will see what I can do
