Ja1lb8 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Dear uncle Ray Ray, you do great work, you should be well chuffed. Shits looking good man! I was talking to this guy, whos name I cant remember, he has the old celica with the v12 and viper manual, and he was also slapping a few turbs on his one. The word on the street is (and you may have already covered this) that these bad boys cant handle any more than 6psi, so I guess this is what ya'll be running? Just gunna run all the factory actuators and wastegates from the 2jz which well be pushing the limits but should be alright, Its cause the compressions up around 11:1 might even be 11.5:1 cant remember and the rods arent all that big either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KKtrips Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I love your regular updates and progress. However this time I'm a little worried about the brackets out the bottom of your bottom arms. Unless you are planning on running some large diameter wheels then that is going to smash the ground when you get a flat tyre and even if you are running large diameter wheels then it is still going to snag up on things like kerbs and speedbumps in normal everyday driving.

Spencer Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Ray dog says he will be making up some tube A arms? hopefully those are for dummy purposes etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingbrick Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 judging by the rest of his build I'd say there is no need to worry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ja1lb8 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Have some faith, That pic does give a bit of a scewed perspective mind you, the bottom of the shock sits 50mm off the ground with a 17" rim ,with a tyre on there its easily over 100mm of ground clearance Well make the bottom A arm just as i made the top one except using bushes instead of rod ends and slightly different mounting of the ball joint to give more clearance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
