hi,

with oils soft than you used, the car on curve do not to overturn itself?:confused:

cheers lads but whats
Additional 57 hole in piston
you put extra holes in the piston

* bumper cut: what picture do you mean?
* Cone washer replaced: any pictures? what size are these washers (exterior diameter)
* how do you lower a roll-bar?
* cutting rings on the rims ... why? Is it for better fitting of the Shumi-tyres?

thx :D

ignore.

Hi lowie,
* when I put about the cut bumper I was going to upload the picture kev has already put up but forgot :lol: so here it is
* By cone washer, I meant the blue cone spacer on top of the front hubs [below the upper wishbone]. I have taken this off and replaced it with 2x 1mm spacers/washers underneath the upper wishbone, and 1x 1mm spacer/washer above it.
* anti roll bar lowered at the rear - picture attached, means that a slot has to be cut into the blue hinge pin brace at the rear of the car to hold the ARB. This helps to make it more fluid over the bumps because the ARB is more progressive.
* I found that cutting the rims made it easier to fit the schu. tires so I can get them more consistent each time, and I think it also makes the rims flex a little more without compromising strength.

Timmy, when it says to drill another 57 hole in the pistons it means to drill a second hole in the piston [on the opposite side to the first] which is the same size as the one already there.

this is a old bar for old pred...:p:D
in this day i have made some mod on my x11, drill new holes on wishbones for sway bar, anti-squat -1.5 mm than the original. new holes in to carbon rear plate for more droop. (thanks to niggs98)
next sunday i have a race on carpet, my problem is set the damper: because forward i have the old damper, but at the rear i use a big bore....:yawn:

Did you once see me do this? :lol:

G

and how do you guys cut those inner rings on the rims? With a knife? or dremel?

sounds interesting. Any pics on how this extra droop is achieved?
( I think this was allready covered on the Pred-forum ... but since this forum is not functioning anymore :( ... )

Hi mate, rims are cut just using curved body shell scissors. dremel would be just as easy.

The pics are shown here: http://www.oople.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15796

Just an extra hole drilled alongside the existing shock mount hole.

HTH :)

Thanks!;)

your welcome
 

Your very welcome;):bored:

JC - are you running the 'Big Bore' shocks, or is that setup with the old style jobbies?

yeah james is runnning big bores on his pred :thumbsup:

big bores
 

Hi Alfonzo

Yep big bores all round. Basicly the x11/08 set up.
