    So where's all the weight???

    So a bare chassis only weighs 550lbs. I was kind of surprised, I thought it was going to be a lot more. I was looking around for a weight list/thread but didn't see it anywhere. And figured everyone might be interested in this. It was an 87 hardtop and everything was off of it except for a...

    Gauging interest: Suspension parts

    So I've been looking at my brother's car and trying to decide what parts it's going to need for the coming season and I wanted to see if anyone here would also be interested in them. I am planning on designing adjustable arms for the whole suspension. They would all have rod ends or...

    Longer wheel studs

    Anyone ever replaced these with something longer. I looked around a little tonight for the knurl diameter and I found a listing in some random catalog for them and the knurl diameter was 14.1mm or 0.555". Does that sound right? So I started looking for longer studs. I checked summit's...

    Springs

    I would like to compile the different rates of what setups are available on the market. So lowering spring rates, coilover spring rates, etc. I know I found a good list a while back, but I'm not sure if that is accurate anymore or if many of the setups are still sold. I will also be going...

    Sway bar Testing

    Cage is finished

    So I finally got done this cage in a customer's Supra. I've been meaning to put a cage in my brother's car for a while, but things have been busy, and then Rob, Racerpage on here I think, came along and wanted a cage for his car. So this was the first supra I've done and I like the way it came...

    Bilstein Coilovers

    A little over a year ago, we decided that my brother's supra needed a better suspension that blown stock stuff. I decided that the best solution would be to put something together myself. I'm not too impressed with any of the off the shelf stuff except the stuff that's priced through the roof...

    Anybody have an open diff for sale?

    I'm looking for an open diff for my brother's mk3. I posted in general wtb but I figured I would get a better response for local people if I posted in this section. So hopefully someone around here has one they don't need. I just need the actual diff. I don't need the ring and pinion or the...

    Exhaust Fitment

    Alright, we're trying to decide what exhaust to put on the car and I'm wondering are there any exhausts that sit higher and closer to the body than others. The car will be getting lowered very soon and I'm real worried about ground clearance with the exhaust especially considering the stupid...
