seems like quite a bit of work matching the metals and welding all that. nice work though,

do u know the dimensions of the stock tie rod and the thread sizes of it?

maybe there's a tie rod that fits without having to fab the extension -outer or inner. it would be easier for people buying it than welding or u having to make another piece.

The production peice will not require longer tie rod ends as I put the hi steer mount more parallel....

That being said though, I am making a heim tie rod end for those looking for the adjustability.

Since i have switched to the endless ma71 pads i now have a set of endless ss-y pads for sale. They have LOTS of meat on them. I paid like $300 for them and they have litterally no wear. the fronts are listed as 17mm total and thats what they are now. the rears are listed as 15.5mm and they are 14.7mm now. I would like to get $200 plus shipping, Shipping will be about $25. These pads are AWSOME street pads. Stop from dead cold and do not put alot of wear into the rotors at all.

pics only show the measurment of the meat of the pad.





If i cant sell it here or locally then ill throw it in the for sale section but i figured id give my subscribers first choice.

PS i have a set of endless vitonovas for sale too

Right now i am running 3 degress camber in the front with 1/8 toe out and 1.25 degrees rear with 0 toe. Like fig said you cant get those camber settings with factory stuff. not enough in the front and too much in the rear.

Had an awsome all day event today so ill post up some pics and a VID!!!! from the top of the car on my fastest run.

Yes totally understandable and no way am I going to try that on my car lol, im just trying to gain a little knowledge. Why do you have more camber in the front then in the rear, I thought it would of been the other way around? Also you play around with the caster or does that just sit still?

Why more camber in the front? cuz thats what works...im sure there is a much better description for that but i cant think right now. Caster is not adjustable but i plan on getting a camber arm to add more.
