No but I'm sure Riko's cynos is somewhere on here bud although not quite the same I don't think as Kevin had to do some cutting and welding. Maybe someone else from the GB can help?

as far as i know the alk wont make any difference to the lower arm bar hitting the exhaust??


i think 99% of exhausts hit the lower arm bar.

although after i fitted TRD engine mounts, i found it no longer does this

Will it even hit the standad exhaust?

 

[GTdan]

wouldnt of thought it would hit standard as they are smaller diammeter than aftermarket 2.5" jobbies.

No stock will be fine, I ran a Blitz Nur Spec for a while with the UR lower arm, did touch but didn't care it's not a shopping mobile it's a track car. Eventually took the exhaust off and ran just a downpipe, then Steve put a side exit on.

Hmmm, no exhaust and no lag :rockon:

[mcleod]

how much exhaust wrap is needed to do from the downpipe backwards?

 

[GTdan]

to what point the back box? and also you double wrapping?

Wow sounds nice, That does fly and goes like stink. T you must have a heavy foot. lol

Im interested with killamats lower bar. but worried about fitting, i know its two bolts but is hard to attach? Herd its solid
If i do replace the bushes, is just pull out and push in? Or need abeating with a BIG hammer?

Rick seems odd your getting more oversteer? The stiffer you make a FWD car at the front the more understeer you get but it's all manageable, piece of pish to drive if only RWD was the same confidence inspiring drive whole new ball game. It's the same spectrum with RWD cars at the rear, the stiffer you make the rear the more oversteer you get, like the KP which is like a solid block at the back!

i think it's cos my front coilovers are pretty soft, and my rear's are on the hardest setting

 

[mcleod]

to the start of the backbox. and is there any point in double wrapping?

I like to think a well balanced consitant foot but yeah!

Not all exhaust systems will catch by the way only the chunky monkies, the buddy club fits with a Cusco bar.

Dont really like drilling bit, can you get replacment bushes Not performance bushes? I know dave sells the whole arm with the bush!

Can this be dangerous in anyway if not done right?

If your talking about replacing the bushings on the lower arm/ wishbones I'd buy a new pair off Dave or Toby (if he does them ) ... unless your putting on an ALK follow the guide here but I'd use a normal grinder rather than an angle ginder and give yourself a couple of hours to get them off

yeah dave sells the whole arm with standard bushes and all you have to do is make sure everything you remove gets tightened up again and you will also need your wheels aligning after fitment

That looks really hard ( i dont even have a grinder lol
May just get a new wish bone if thats the case. If not i may just tell Kev o do it instead ( i may end up just breaking the whole thing.
