Suspension

[hellfire]

So... Messed with the car today. And because I can't tune the DTAfast thing for shit, I could only play with suspension.

Settled on this height. Good? I'm actually still higher in the back then the front. :(

[JTA021]

niceee
dude... you need a willwood kit or something.. that would look SICK with tthose wheels

[hellfire]

I have stillen up front.

Anyone want to donate some rears? ;)

Tyler

[Z-Bryan]

Honestly that looks better

I think before (like your sig. picture) it looked awkward (in my opinion) because the wheels stick out pretty good, but with the quarter panel over the top of the wheel now, it looks much better

[TopSecret240]

NICE!!!

[JTA021]

lol, i wish i had them to donate

[babowc]

TUUCKKKKKKKKKKKKIN!

I totally agree. The reason for my not so lowness before, was I didn't have traction rods, or any adjustable rods for that matter besides RUCA's. I just got my full suspension stuff, so I could move the wheel forward in the wheel well. Before, I was hitting the bumper with the back of my tire. :thinking:

But anywho, cleared that up, and I'm good to go.

Thanks everyone. Hopefully this bitch will be tuned and ready for the up coming events. I have like.. A month. So if it isn't, I procrastinate worse then Babowc. ;)

You know.

I'm not the only procrastinator.. so is Will... (lol I'm dragging him down too)

[down_shift]

how thats going to be under load?

[Cash]

I just got my full suspension stuff

Tyler

What'd you end up going with? Did you try that eBay stuff? Motoria or whatever it's called... If so, how did it seem quality wise? welds, heim joints, etc.

[hellfire]

how thats going to be under load?

Meh, should be fine. As the car moved down, it cambers in. So it shouldn't hit. I can jump on the back with no issues. We'll see though.

Yeah, I did the cheap shit to try it out. After hearing from multiple people that they havn't had issues, I figured hell, for $129 shipped, even if I have to buy new ones, its worth a shot.

Everything seems good. I don't know really what to look for in the joints, but the welds etc, are good.

Tyler

[MOOREOFSTEPHEN]

Yum.

[Cash]

Good deal. Yea, at that price it's definitely worth a shot. I haven't heard anyone having any major problems with the stuff either, so it should be fine. I think part of what you pay for in more expensive name brands is strict quality checks. But while there might be more of a chance of getting a defective unit from an eBay company, a lot of those companies at least warranty their products so if you get a defective unit, you can just swap it out.

[babowc]

Just switch out the heims and i think you should be good..
The welds aren't going to just spontaneously break, lol.

hope so, hate to see the frp fenders get chunks ripped out of them.

[Subu]

It looks really good.I like how you can tell a differance by looking at your sig and hope your fenders down get tore up.

Who cares if they do, they are riveted on for a reason. ;)

[Decker]

[Cash]

The SPL's have that bend in them too, but it's not quite that exaggerated.

[shawn shawn]

exaggeration is the mother of awesome!

[ThatS13Guy]

www.hellaflush.com (http://www.hellaflush.com) btw it looks good :D

[homeslicej2]

Looking good. Hope you don't have issues with it hitting. Dorimon, I lol'd at the use of clamps on the exhaust hangers instead of getting poly or nismo ones. That's redneck, but pretty awesome at the same time.

Casey, are you being serious about heim joints? :confused: I'm not sure if you are.

Are you sure those are SPL? Mine are EXACTLY like that. Down to the colors of the nuts on it. I'll take a pic.

*EDIT* Ok nevermind. LoL.. Mine don't bend.

Tyler

[Cash]

Yep, they were ordered from SPL. haha, I hope they didn't pull a fast one on Scott.

Here's the pic from SPL's website:

Oh shit, lol PBM has it on the ball! thats hot.

Usually, the arms break when the heim joints binds up.
hemi joint = where it swivles(?)
