Spring rates ? What size front and rear bars ? Alingment specs.. does it rotate ?

 

i have no for sure specs on any suspension/alignment stuff, but i do have a rear sway bar not sure what size maybe 3/4", but i do not have a front sway bar since the swap.

 

How'd you do? What else was out there kicking ass? Canby autox had a bitched 1200 and a trailered scirocco.

 

i was as fast as most of the newer stock cars out there, golfs, 240sx's, etc.

 

Wow...

 

This shot makes your car look So mean!!! ...... 100% buisness .......... I never knew they looked so good without all the negative rear camber...... :lol:

 

hah thanks only if she gave 100% business instead of choking the last two runs...

That 510 looks sick, autox is very fun. You definitely need bigger sway-bars and more spring rate. :P

 

Are you planning on putting on flares?

I'm no pro at this, but I'd recommend getting ground control, it makes it really easy to swap the springs. 2.5" Springs are pretty cheap, I've seen many sites that sell them in a huge selection of rates. maybe for the weight of that engine 300-350lb in front?

yea thats sounds good, i wanna get the ground controls because they are a pretty good price for the fronts and seem pretty easy to install. and i would get their rears too as that too is a good price.
