furryfrog Posted August 17, 2008 Report Posted August 17, 2008 looking good mate has lots of potential :dance: how much power are you aiming for? is the 2 1/2 inch zorst big enough? ill be keeping my eye on this thread. Quote
Falken_KE30 Posted August 17, 2008 Report Posted August 17, 2008 more info on the front brakes would be handy!!! Car is looking the goods, and should have power to match :dance: Quote
johnny t Posted August 18, 2008 Author Report Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) hey yeah thanks, I'm not sure bout the exaust just tryin it out the 3 inch looked to low and i didnt want to scrape over every speed bump i go over.. what sorta info do ya want on the front brakes? yeah i can't wait to get it going had a minor set back the front track width is 65mm wider than standard and they only allow 25mm greater than standard. so i have no idea how I'm gonna decrease it in width by minimium 40mm any ideas would be great!! also the rolling diameter of the tire can be 15mm bigger than the standard rolling diameter. which i think is a load of shit cause corolla rim is tiny and ive got 15 inch ford stodgies on it to try and get it past this mod plate stuff! johnnyt Edited August 18, 2008 by johnny t Quote

Falken_KE30 Posted August 18, 2008 Report Posted August 18, 2008 Meaning how did ya go about putting those Disc's and Calipers on... any brackets ect had to be made? pics? Quote

I'm gonna check with oh what a nissian feeling to see if he can get a measuerment of his for my cause he has corolla struts in his. johnnyt Quote
furryfrog Posted August 18, 2008 Report Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) can't get it engineered with struts that give acceptable track then change them later? ill try find my papers see what is written down, I'm running jdm86 struts and sigma LCAs, some 40 or 50mm RCAs. ill go look for the report. edit: 1335 on the front track.. 1325 on the rear but i know that can't be right lol Edited August 18, 2008 by furryfrog Quote
johnny t Posted August 18, 2008 Author Report Posted August 18, 2008 but they have my big brakes on there..what struts are they out of?? that would be good man thanks. what do u mean by some 40 or 50mm RCAs. johnnyt Quote
