AWD fitted

S13 goodness

well first off i want to say i started rolling/pulling on nissan they are great cars to fit out there solid fender designs and big wheel wells make for "fun" fitment

this is a RHD s13 Sr20Det swapped 180sx conversion done very clean.

the pull took place right before it hit the body shop for some ding love and paint, I'm awaiting to see how it turns out once finished.

anyways this was a clean pull the right side got the quarter panel cave in. but the body shop will fix that.

car will be lowered and neg camber will be pulled. for a great combo

setup is 18x9 with a 225/40 fronts and 18x10 275/35 rears

05 sti (voltex goodness)

ok well we have a 9 inch wide wheel wrapped with 255's on a 05 sti. this setup rubbed on the track day and left some nice marks on the tires.

so i went ahead and setup for sti's equipped with over fenders, cleaned tape (support), and started the process.

but i wanted to pay close attention to the taping. the taping is important. it provides extra support for the plastic rivets inside the over fenders. when taping make sure to go all the way down the plastic over fender, so this means open that door clean on the inside. and tape away.

.

now on to the roll.

RE rolled front today but I've worked all 4 corners of this thing. Clean rolls, crack free on the most difficult Subaru paint there is to work with.

Subaru paint.......... nuff said

08 STI (18/9 +35)

08 STI 18/9+35 fairly simple roll

www.apolloperformance1.com

- rubbing on the fine edge on the inner fenders.Like most cars thhese fenders have 2 layers but, The 08 sti has a really thin sharp flimsy piece of metal above the thicker fender. This little piece of metal sticks past the fender about 3mm but that's all it needs to shred into those sweet new tires (RE-11's) in this case

inner fender pulled down.

Sti over fender roll (how to/info)

well i wanted to show how I do the sti over fender rolling/pulling.

work was done at Apollo Performance

www.apolloperformance1.com

materials

towel
warm water
dry towel
fender roller
heat gun
painters tape

These setups take some work but they are doable, in most cases rivets get loose or adhesive gets loose due to the heat gun used

why use a heat gun?

- the over fenders are plastic and sensitive and there is still paint on the inside behind the fender it is important that you monitor your heat not to bubble, melt,or burn the plastic over fender. Heat will make the over fender flexible enough for the polyurethane wheel to ride along it without it cracking

what happens to the over fender?

-rolling the fenders on Sti equiped with over fenders will get the job done. it will give you the clearance needed to fit the bigger wheels. but in almost all cases the heat mixed with the pressure of the roller causes stress on the sdhesive and rivets and the over fenders are left loose.

Are there any other ways of modifying sti's equiped with over fenders to fit bigger wheels?

- yes there are other ways of doing the modding to over fenders. heres a nice write up from the website

this method requres removal of the over fender, grinding/cutting of the inner lip, using a roller or hammer to pull the fender. adhesive to seal open area.

it seems like alot of work but his results are very good, and the fenders look great.

on to the roll

prepping the fender
clean on the inside and outside of the fender using warm water remove any surface dirt and wipe dry.

I use painters tape to give more suppor to the plastic fender

the inner/actual lip of the fender is very small, thus making it hard to work with.

you must roll the lip out , than bend it up than bend it in.

this is what the lip looks like un touched

rolled out

set up the roller where it is at an angle were you arent resting thoe roller wheel on the plastic over fender

rolled in / flat

once you have completed rolling the fender lip out you can now continue the roll as you would with a regular (typical) fender re adjust the roller to accomidate different parts of the fender and take your time

the pull

In this case thos left side of the fender was already loose prior to the roll?????

I recomend using the silicone adhesive same adhesive used in this right up.

good job pal.

a gave him a slight pull and all seemed to fit well lowered on coil overs so I had to use my Parts by max/eastwood comb0 worked like a charm as it always does.
