Why use the existing unit, easy …. cost.

Bit of fab/profile/modelling work in that one, I reckon if he was paying full tote for everything it would have added up pretty quickly. Mind you says the guy that put around 80 hours cad work into a pair of rims A good mate of mine is friends with guy near me who is/has dumped a full skyline awd system into an FJ Holden, hoping to have a look at it soon, that will be fun to see Apologies for the thread diversion IJ!!

Started to make the coil overs today thanks for the advice and tops really appreciate it. Busted out the plasma and angle grinder they are now ready for the sleeve kit. How long did it take for the sleeve kit to arrive for you from oto moto?

How much were the DMS coilover and shocks?

They are an Aussie made quality set up so there not cheap,but they are rebuildable/serviceable,have 50mm slider tubes and are independently adjustable for bump and rebound.Also allow for camber change at base of coilover with eccentric bushes. RRP $5,552.00 I paid $3,560.00 as they were having a 30% off promotion for being in business for 30 years.I think the xyz stuff is around $1,800.00,so about double for the DMS kit. Some pics.   

 

Nice bit of gear there, making my own coil overs as we speak..

 

 

What are the brake lines going to be mounted to?

 

What brand are the castor rods and whats your thoughts on them?

Nice so whats the first thing you will attack?

[sands vsParticipant vs commodore View build HERE Member since: March 1, 2015 Posts: 619]

Keen to watch this thing progress..

 

Reason why I sent you the vids the top one ICON has one which has been hugely updated for functionality wise for actual use like your going to use it for.. Brilliant what they have achieved.

 

The foose one is cool just to see what they can do body mods and styling wise.,

 

 

The street machine wise series is great shows engine mods in detail and the body resto in great detail, brake upgrades

Wonder if anyone makes them for rigid rear springs great idea.

[sands vsParticipant vs commodore View build HERE Member since: March 1, 2015 Posts: 619]

I thought you had front and rear coilovers?

 

Do you have any pics or info on the adjustable rear springs?

Love the fact that its a monster and it still gets driven.. Any plans to take it down the strip?

[sands vsParticipant vs commodore View build HERE Member since: March 1, 2015 Posts: 619]

Curious would the lsa clear but the bonnet reinforcement in place? How much more clearance could you get from running a different top plate
