Re: IRS for project

What do the modern vette's use? I would think they might be fairly light, and common enough to not break the bank. I would also think something from a bmw m3 or m5 might do the trick.

Re: IRS for project

I'm pretty sure other than a few mustang cobra's they(mustangs) don't have independent rear suspension. I think some of the t-bird turbo coupe and merkur xr4ti had independent rears with lsd options....but I think they are heavier than a mack truck. I would also think there have to be some BMW parts...

Re: IRS for project

Only other cars that I can think of that MIGHT fit the bill are 2000 and 2001 subaru 2.5rs, and 02 wrx and newer. Also the Audi A4. I'm not sure if the TT had lsd I would think of the subie and audi, the audi diff would be the strongest, as it is a mechanical setup. The audi setup is aluminum, and t...

I don't know if it is a temporary thing, but I can't get the 2009 rules/regs to load, they are all getting a 404 page not found message.

1961 Morris mini-Honda VTEC

Not to be confused with Adams green mini, I also have a Mini that will be receiving a honda motor. The project started this summer and is moving along slowly. Some of you might remember it from burke several years ago...it did manage to make it through tech before I broke it. While similar in concep...
