coilover construction.
Posted: 20 Jul 2010 11:19 pm
ok because i cant leave anything alone, im currently pulling my spare struts apart in order to uprate and modify them.
so far i have got as far as pulling them apart ready for overhauling, and istalled 63mm subaru studs into the hubs.
what i need to know is;
are there any uprated dampers to insert into the fronts, if so where? as i can go down the refill oil route if need be.
what other vehicle springs will fit the coilover conversion? at the moment im seeing ebay advertised mk1/2 escort coilover conversions (weld on tubes) so will probably go down this route with the springs.
alsohas anyone run any sort of excentric top mounts on a 300, as again im seeing escort ones advertised and was wondering how much work would be involved?
ive also sourced a pair of mazda four pots, and im getting a bit lost on disk size? im not sure what the mazda runs as standard (300mm?) im running 15" wheels so what i need to know is what other vehicles can i steal a set of vented 300mm disks from that would in theory bolt straight up?
