Haha I got a card reader now so as per updates you will just have to wait till I get spare time to upload. Spare time WTF is that ?!?!

Haha yeah bro. Ra struts have been sourced so front suspension is soon to be completed. Fucking choice
-
Sorry dude. It takes long enough to upload photos frm my phone let alone using a camera and going to a mates place to upload them. FuZy pics are better then none haha
-
I'm gonna have to go ke70 with slaves dude I'm having no luck with the Ra celica stuff
-
Okay. So front suspension is complete minus my Ra struts. Little bit of modding to be done ie steering rack spacers, shorten the steering arms and make lower control arms adjustable. Then get some rca's and then brakes time. This is how it looks as of now anyway.
And here's my rear trailing arms. I will be running equal length trailing arms so will make a start on the brackets later on today. More holes in the floor haha.
And the wide body held on with masking tape
-
Okay so I've almost got my tube frame crossmember finished. Only thing left to do is drill holes for lca's and the top brackets for engine mounts. Why you ask? Well I have custom made a cross member due to needing the brackets for the lca's to be further apart and con lower my roll center while I'm at it. And because I have also moved the steering rack forward 20mm so I can gain better mechanical advantage on full lock.

Like wise bro. Have been looking for a change of scene for a while now.

Another update. Have got a bit done on my front end suspension. With talking to Todd I have chosen to go with ke70 stuff. Here's the picks any way. They should explain themselves
Thank goodness for the rotisserie there's no way I would do any of this otherwise

Easier and stronger to weld bottom link bracket to the chasis rail I can get four 5mm welds on there nicely plus the extra welds on floor pan. I have seen way to many cars breaking these link brackets. Throughout this whole build my main motto is do it once do it right. I know it's enevitable that I will always have to do more work later on down the track but I want this to be mainly maintenance free when finished!
