YAY! finally!

I think I'm just going to clean it up and put it on, but only after I take my spacers off and put longer wheel studs, don't want do do a stupid pull to fit spaced out wheels :/

plan is to get some Negative Camber Roll Center Adjusters, which push the bottom of the struts out 1-1.25" and giveme like 2.5" more camber, so it'll fill the fender out better, but shouldn't need a pull (especially with the 195's I'm planning on getting soon)

 

I know this is an old post. But I was cracking up, when I read this last night. No pun intended. But this is real freaking funny! lol

 

why dont you just fab front lcas that are longer. and put s13 hubs up front. itd be alot better than using the negative camber roll center adjusters. plus ive never heard of them actally moving the struts they just align the tierods better if im thinking correctly.

 

because I don't want a full set of S13 coilovers, I'm considering taking my S13 coilovers out in the rear and building my own again.

NCRCA's are different from RCA's in that they actually do push the strut out farther.

Also, even at my height, my car only has a 3.5" suspension drop, so the 1.25" NCRCA's would give me a lot better geometry than just putting other parts from other cars in it. not to mention with the S13 knuckles the roll center would still be way off.

there's just no reason for me to downgrade my suspension using S13 parts.

 

 

Heat reflective foil?

 

A better question: Are those flowers on your shock tower?

 

yassur on both accounts

 

 

Hey don't forget to measure that bushing hole for me

 

You really need to practice your welding more before trying to make a part that has ALOT of stress put on it.

 

**** off, this doesn't have alot of stress on it hence why I welded it.

also, I took some calipers (albeit not a mic) and got 2.350" for the bushing holes.

 

Get that side fixed yet?

 

nopee

 

Yep, control arm mounts see no stress...

Maybe you will change your mind about this car when something breaks and you kill someone and/or end up in the hospital.

 

yup, because no one's ever come up with that kind of a comeback, ever.

good job on your creativity

 

those welds look like they will hold

 

Thanks. JeffP has his drawing for the bushing of 2.360" but I think is is a press fit so maybe that's why....



Thanks for checking....

 

yep, I saw that too and was like *mind-***** lol

I'm just going to get some S13 bushings turned down to fit.

 

got sidetracked

 

I'm not sure which I'm more curious about. The radio, or the thing that's plugged into the cig lighter.

 

lol the radio I put in finally, got the stock system working perfectly again after years of not being in use (although I scored some Pioneer speakers off a friend for free, so the quality is a little better haha)

the plug is for my car phone that I scored from the junkyard that I'm going to put in once I get bored again, just for shitzengiggles.

 

Cool on both accounts. did you modify it so you can plug in an MP3 or something or are you going to use one of those little FM transmitters? Or not even bother? lol

 

probably not even bother lol

I want to keep the interior as period correct as absolutely possible

on long trips I'll probably just use an iPod or some stupid little thing lol
