I hooked him up with a good deal on a carbon fiber lip. 

 

 

You drill holes in the front apron and screw the lip onto it.

Damn. i just have one friend that's hardly come through but he's a legit car guy. hes got an ae86 and he doesnt like magazines and crap. 

but, his brother is internet famous but he also resists the magazines. 

 

 

I would if I could... I only had the one.

My dad opened up a restaurant in Seattle thursday actually. hahha

but hes coming back tomorrow morning and leaving back saturday.

 

on that duckbill, does it just screw into the bill or do i have to drill holes into it?

its so cheap, im looking into it. lol

[Tristin]

The lip already has places to drill. You just have to measure correctly and drill into the car.

That'd suck to measure at an angle. your lip would look terrible.

 

Well thanks. I'll buy one by the end of summer and put it on with my ebay tires. lol.

 

pickin up some roadstones.

[DatMo]

so i went to get tires today but the store gave me a dif quote in store.

 

I was gonna get some 185/55/14 but now im thinking 185/60/14.

 

im not sure if itll be too much profile though.

 

what do others run?

[q-tip]

I used to run 185/60r14 when I was running 14's. That was the widest I could run with the wheels I had. That size should work well

Thanks.

I also found some pics and I think they'll turn out alright. 

[DatMo]

I did get tires that are super fat for $110 installed so i said wth.

185/65/14

 

and this is also my problem..

http://community.ratsun.net/topic/57231-putting-in-mr2-inserts-and-crap/

 

i cant get my insert to remain centered.

 i feel like it could be centered when its screwed through the top hot and camber plate but i have no idea.

 

help appreciated.

 

btw, tenafterfive is a great guy everyone.

i recommend his stuff to anyone.

[q-tip]

Does it just move side to side at the top of the tube or does it move up and down in the tube

[DatMo]

Does it just move side to side at the top of the tube or does it move up and down in the tube

just side to side. The cap doesn't even go threaded in 100%

[q-tip]

Hmm, strange. Is there a small ring on the top of the insert or did it come with one?

[DatMo]

as in an o-ring or washer?

 

it did not come with one although i got one and it does help but that also is not centered.

I'm gonna take it to my dads friend shop right now because he has trans fluid and i need a couple of other things for my car as well.

 

I'll update when i come back

[DatMo]

So i was putting the suspension together and then this came up.

I'm not sure if this could cause problems and it is still a flat surface on the bottom but do you guys see it being any problem?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

[q-tip]

You need new seals....

[DatMo]
