we ended up etch priming and using a black stonegard on the underside keeps it easy to touch up and painted all the suspension xmember body color in a urethane 2pack more chip resistant than normal 2 pack paint its very handy when your dad runs 1 of the biggest crash shops in adelaide lol

Hey,

 

You i guess you can adjust the pinion angle by adjusting the 4 link setup?

 

Or would the suspension stop you from moving it back/forwards?

[1JZKe55]

Hey yeah height,bound,rebound,pinion angle is all adjustable with this set up

[1JZKe55]

Coming along very nicely. Love the sheet metal work - great build quality.

Squat! :) Loving the diff and rear suspension. Convo Pro's are killer.

 

Now I've read in a few threads and have been told by a couple of people that when you're welding a really long stretch

of weld, it's best to do it in short strips and leave a gap before the next one. The reason being is that if the weld breaks,

it might crack along the whole weld... I see that there's lots of LONG welds in your engine bay and since you're running

lots of power (I assume so :fuzz: ) it is unlikely, but it could crack in the event of the chassis twisting... But, since you're

a bloody handy panel fabricationer, you must have a reason for doing the job how you've done it.
