it does look very simple! great idea, however the coilovers are expensive are they not? ive thought about one of these too....

Heres a pic of an FRA alloy one on mine




The only alteration I had to do was to cut the knuckles off the radious arms where the trumpets would normally fit in to

That is the same as what i have, But the knuckles are still on my radius arms!

well i the only reason i can see to take off the knuckle joint holes are that they will collect cr@p and after a long time rust but thats all

if thats all there is to it then when i remove my rear subframe to do the respray i will have to take some measurements of one and draw it on the pc so i have it in the future

thanks

Hi, the knuckle joint holes were taken off as they would have hit the bottom of the c section, I guess if you made the c section larger this would not be a problem.

Hope this helps

are these cheap to get made or would it be better to buy one and do you have to mod the boot?

lol true but i want to keep this one a-series etc. might be tempted by z-car in many many years though. next project will be a 2.0l redtop, just because ive always wanted to.

z cars are cool but losing the back seat is long
r1 is what i want to do bad but its a lot of dough

anything really is of use i suppose that anything that might be a bit special like the fact that the knuckle joint had to be removed etc, anything like that really is of use but as much as you can get is great and greatly appreciated
