Dry ice is the easy way to get the sound deadening off, then just finish it off with some wax and grease remover. You'll get about 25kg out of it but its hardly worth it with a turbo, just turn up the boost half a psi instead
What about cornering and brakeing???


meh not that important for a drift car

i got told that it the plug only just fits through the holes, and you may have to even trim it a little to fit + it will only reach over the strut tower and not around

You never plan on having that car on the street right? With the cage and all?

Hey Locky,

Build up coming together nicely mate. Progress picks are great. Keep them up.
FYI – Not sure as to whether the picture above shows your final front suspension setting or photo taken during trial fitting/assembly, or while suspension arm unloaded. Final assembly of front suspension geometry should result in Double eye S-link located in a vertical position (or there about). For example in above picture if top mount is left in soft (end of bar) location, bottom mounting would be moved to rear hole of “L” mounting bracket on transverse link (lower control arm).

Keep moding….


>+(:
