Just thought i may as well post up what i been up to for the past month on the old rolla.

 

Ive spent a few months thinking about revising my rear end, mostly because my current traction setup works awesome, but the front link hangs only 50mm off the ground. After considering four link, ladder bar, and a crapload of other setups, i decided on the simplest idea.i decided to lift the front leaf mount, to make the traction rods clear. ;)

I have removed the old mounts, and have started making new plates that sit a 70mm higher off into the car.

These are made of 3mm plate and 6mm plate, they are yet to be boxed and fully welded, but have lifted my tramp rods to sill height, which means they will be fully legal.

so...objective accomplished. well...nearly anyway. I have also found some pintara adjustable rear control arms to make my new tramp rods out of that are fully adjustable. :P

 

Ive also changed my wastegate to be adjustable, and polished my tappit cover.

The adjustable actuator idea does actually work apparently. I first saw it on ebay, the real thing was like $160, so i just welded a couple of nuts together, and well, i havnt got the chance to test it yet, but hopefully it allows me to drop a bit more boost, as the factory setup was heavily tensioned. :D

 

Ke30king i think if you search "sr20 ke30" you should find some stuff on my suspension, if there is anything in particular PM me. :)
