Ohhh man... I am super excited to see the rest of this. Never thought someone in the states would do an Odyvia. Don't abandon this. I love it so far. I like that note on your window too.

hillclimb240sx · 03-02-2013, 06:56 PM

WOW... that rendering is sick as fuck.... yes.. i agree... please follow through with this.. fucking awesome

alexisthemovie · 03-03-2013, 01:33 AM

Hate to be posting so many similar photos, but I went to work today (Saturday) and got the car on the ground.

The wheels on the car are 5Zigen ZR+520 in 18x7.5 +37 with 235/40/18. It is actually shocking how sunk it is in the rear. Almost looks like I could fit two of them in a dually setup. I have S14 LCA's in the front so it pushes it out about 10mm extra - something that I failed to account for with the original planned specs.

Will be hosing the car down on Monday and beginning the wheel build. I need a new 6 speed clutch and throw out bearing before I can drop the engine in. Will probably be ordering an ORC variant from Japan. I'll probably start by installing the drive axles, diff, and driveshaft. Hopefully my friend can help me weld up the cut quarter panels as well.

alexisthemovie · 03-05-2013, 11:39 AM

Finally pushed it out of it's home of over a year and washed it!

My friend pulled out all of the main wiring harness.

I redrew a line for how high up needs to be cut.

And... I started the wheel build! Decided to go with 19x7.5 outers and 19x4.0 inners for 19x11.5 -46 rear. Fronts should be 18x10 -1 with a 5" lip. I'm building that with spacers in mind due to the large brakes. May go 19" fronts in the future.

05subysti · 03-05-2013, 11:45 AM

wow never thought id see ssr gt3 with so much lip! in for more updates

alexisthemovie · 03-05-2013, 04:51 PM

19x11.5 -46 rear test fit

Tried the 18x10 -10 (ish) fronts as well... the faces don't clear the brakes AND the wheels look small to me so I'm going to be running 19's up front.

atvrider647 · 03-05-2013, 05:58 PM

Purestock240 · 03-05-2013, 06:13 PM

I just dont understand what is appealing about so much camber on a car, 2013 rice ftw I guess. other than that the rest of it looks cool. always thought odvyia fronts looked good

Wow, when I saw your rendering I was thinking, 'meh that's just a rendering, it's not gonna look like that'. But those wheels, damn, it's gonna be close, lol.

D's_s13 · 03-05-2013, 10:12 PM

rawgarage · 03-06-2013, 07:46 AM

Priddy · 03-06-2013, 11:40 AM

I am definitely looking forward to this! ! Keep up the good work

Fixing up my new rb20det s13

silviaks2nr · 03-06-2013, 11:50 AM

I'm not big on the crazy deep/widebody look generally but wow you're doing it damn right for sure. Props on doing the odyssey front end too.

sterlinge · 03-06-2013, 12:23 PM

Dang that's a lot of dish. You going to track the car? Seems like a crazy staggered setup your car might push a lot...

WristWork · 03-06-2013, 12:55 PM

HOLY LIP

I think 11.5 isn't even that wide, I just happened to need that much lip to fill up the arches. I am going to drive the car on a track, yes. It should be making around 350 whp on the first go around and then I'll be upping boost when I get a 350Z 6 speed and larger injectors.

alexisthemovie · 03-06-2013, 04:18 PM

Lowered the front last night (by putting the 2 locking collars underneath the mount).

My friend also finished cutting and tacking one side.

PureRush · 03-06-2013, 05:21 PM

Looks awesome! Where did you buy the front end? From mastermind or restored website?

I bought the kit from Mastermind. I bought the headlights from Honda while on vacation in 2011.

Magical Trevor · 03-06-2013, 06:14 PM

Subbed. Solid work.

05subysti · 03-06-2013, 06:48 PM

nice update, looks awesome. How much camber are you planning to run?

coupesallday! · 03-06-2013, 09:55 PM

So you just bought the front end, or the full kit for 5 grand

sterlinge · 03-06-2013, 11:10 PM

I say crazy staggered because the track width. 7.5" front space in the back and only 5.3" front space up front.

alexisthemovie · 03-07-2013, 07:10 PM

Yesterday

Cutting the driver side

All done, tacked up

Got some new General Exclaim UHP mounted on the rears.

265/30/19 on driver side and 275/30/19 on passenger size to test out fitment.

How it sits currently, still over an inch higher than I want it to be in the back.

Reece · 03-07-2013, 07:12 PM

GOD this is nice. Don't lower it any more at all, that is perfect. Nearly breathtaking. Wow. This build is sure coming along well.

Thank you. I am hoping more people will subscribe here.

yomisiu · 03-07-2013, 07:52 PM

cool build. tough call on the tires, both sizes look good.

looking forward to more updates!

atvrider647 · 03-07-2013, 08:33 PM

We're the overs hard to install? And what are your wheel specs you have the exact tire height I wanna run
