https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif Now I just need an adjustable camber link, and the rear is set for some pounding. I hope the competition front diff mount doesnt break....

Front bushing install is complete. Just need some SS brake lines and hks drag coilovers https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

...

I'll get the rb dtss elimnator bushings in tommorrow, and going to get the rear rotors lapped.

Hopefully I can get this car back on the ground soon!

where are the tails?

Nice!

how much are the HKS drag coilovers? Is the white car going to be drag only?

more details

yes plz more details https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

I think they are like $2k new. No its not going to be drag only, but the focus is 10sec street car.

I thought you could use that money elsewhere and get k2rd or ground controls with any Eibach ERS springs you want. I read that some of those high end coilovers aren't meant for street use because they need rebuilt quicker. I don't know, that was the opinion of some guys on the other forum for whatever its worth. I wouldn't mind some Teins or JIC's though. I think they're in the $1100-1500 range.

$2395 for the FC3S drag coilovers, Listed on the HKS USA website now...



I got mine for pretty cheap though https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Looking good. Did you install the bushings yourself?

Yes. I don't plan on paying full price for the coilsovers, if I do buy new ones I would consider the TEINs.. I've heard Junk In Car are bad....

dude, more details, where did u get the bumpstop? where did u install it at?

Energy Suspension bumpstop. I got it from a forum member as they come in packs. Got a good deal too https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png. Summit sells them. There are several sizes, if I was going to pay the full price I would have gotten a longer one( 3 1/8") would be my choice, vs the 2 1/2" on I have installed. I just used larger washers to make up for the difference. I can take some pixs later on to show the exact location that I drilled from above.

Yes more pics!

the hks's are at least rebuildable even if its wierd metric stuff.

Please tell me that the back of your car is not balancing onto of blocks of wood sitting on the rim. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

How much weight reduction are you doing?

My HKS drag suspension has been on my car for over 3 years now...no rebuilding required yet...*goes and finds wood to knock on*

The bumpstop has been used in the drag racing arena for years, I mentioned this to elliot to keep the pinnion from breaking the diff mount on a hard launch. a little extra protection if you will.

haha no. I could not find the nuts for the subframe at the time and I used the wood/tires to hold it in place to check for fitment on the bumpstop.

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif and for $5 you can't go wrong!

what does the sublink do? I noticed you have the sublink connection beefed up...?

use carb cleaner on all your parts? they look nice and shiney.



mmmm, aluminum...



i've got all the bushings for my rear, if i can only find time and another daily driver to do it!

Yea I reinforced the camber link. I'm also going to get an adjustable one and tighten it up as far as possible. The spot where it connects to the subframe will break with a lot of hp...

I sanded and painted most everything that came off...

Here is where I drilled the hole.

A close up.

Rb dtss eliminator bushings in. I'm not sure how far I press in the 2nd delrin bushings. I guess only time will tell. I didn't know if these were suppose to be greased out not, but to play it safe I greased them.

A little trick Camel showed me. Turn the rear diff mounts upside down, it becomes a solid.

And I just got rid of those other subframe rubber mounts, just put a washer on instead.

Its finally almost done. Just missing 2 bolts, and a passenger side caliper mount/holder.
