BUZ440 Posted October 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Bit more being done, this time the top arms being done and now all linked up and quite rigid, Tested tyre width and seems 255 wide tyres fit, and could go wider when the leaf's are dropped out Next is to fit these bad boys to pull her up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUZ440 Posted October 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 So rear end is mostly complete, just to fit the Gaz coilovers all round to position the ride height for the wheel offset, and Brembo's are on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUZ440 Posted October 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 Enough looking at the rear end, up front the SR20 has been remounted on the Escort rack and pinion, Escort crossmember has been lowered 20mm Gearbox crossmember redesigned also, same idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUZ440 Posted November 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 While the Cortina is being finalised and back on the ground, Getting more pieces for the engine, More suitable intake as the S13 bannana log is rubbish and a top mount manifold that is more aesthetic Next is to mount it up and see if it fits, yeah I'm a bit worried i might not....

BUZ440 Posted November 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 So figured it was time to bolt some of these things together, surprised it fits, clears and fills her up And got the GAZ Coilovers in with adjustable tops Chucked on some wheels to see confirm the offset, these are no the rims, but are 18's Prolly should go 355mm front rotors i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Dave, yeah was a great day that one, and shows how diverse and all sorts we are haha, since you were last in NISROLA, the Cortina will be more fun, and cause it will be street driven I don't have the required skills to have it all signed off by the engineer, but he does an awesome job tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUZ440 Posted December 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 So updates I better share on the forums as opposed to FB Rear end is complete with coilovers, and 6 link Gussets are done also, make it more rigid 18inch rims fit are the minimum these days, and 300mm rear rotors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
