    cheers to dimaat for the spare subframe which i took the old bushes out of then i gave it a new coat of paint

    bushes in, locks the frame solid to the chassis and raises the whole lot and gives more clearance.....infinatley better than those shithouse $80 sandwich ones i had before....

    The bushes are the same as the ones I made for mine. Works well for sure.

    Although mine are slightly diferent because I have an s14 frame in my s13.

    Looking good anyways, I can't wait to see this finished :nod:

    ITS FUCKING ROLLING....far too high....but rolling NEVERTHELESS

    so fucking stocked, even the handbrake works.....sort of

    and i KNOW its too high but thats as low as the front will go...it will definatley get lower soon! i'm the first to admit its too high!

    put all the arms back in, started to roll the left gaurd....it just wouldnt tighten up, i thought the thread was stripped or something but no...the cheap ass gaurd roller shat itself....dont worry MK-II will be much beefier
    [​IMG]

    my clearances with my subframe....the arms will never hit anything under there
