LOL - the last time i did a car i vowed never to do it again!!!

well its a very good mod especially if your car drives like mine!

its actually quite likely that my car will out-handle yours!!! sorry to say!

the best G-force i measured was on 205/40/17 inch tires, before i made the car as low as it is now, and the reading was 1.03G lateral acceleration.

i now ride lower, and on 225/45/17's!!!

hehe!!! internet racers hey!!! go figure!

LOL - i must've misread your sentence!

i thought you'd already installed the bushes.

NEwwwaaayyyy...

on my Gmeter - the lateral acceleration went from .76 G's on stock bushes and stock everything, to 0.91 G's on poly bushes with stock everything else!!!

a very very good mod for the money IMO!!!

But if you have the time and patience and a little help you'll be able to fit it yourself right??

of course - it also helps if you have a hydraulic press!!! and a torque wrench.

RRiekertadmin04 Jun 2008, 19:37

I went to Volkspares in Jet part to check out the stuff, they have the full prothane kit for the S13 for R1850

i bought a energy suspension master kit for the 240sx off ebay for about
$200 plus duties ect..

so ja, R1850 for a full kit is a very good price 😮
