I put my front springs, camber tops and cut my rear springs the same height. Car is super low now, looks great with some camber dialed in too. I'll get some pictures tomorrow. Pumped to go for a proper drive.
So I put a few bits and pieces in suspension wise the other day, 4.5kg/m front springs with some cusco camber tops and excel g's front and rear and cut my rear springs. Car feels like it's on rails now around corners, although it is a touch lower than I would have liked being 75~mm high at the exhaust. I don't see how you guys can all stand being any lower than that, my car scrapes on everything now.
Angry bird is angry.
Just a small update, I finally got a pair of Re002's to put on the front to replace the ten year old toyos I had on the back. Makes the turn in feel sharper than before, really happy with them. I'm curious to see how well they wear though, anyone else using them on their dailys?
Hey man,
I had them on the front of my car for a while, now I have some R1R's and with 3.1 neg camber and 5mm toe out, they seem to last alright! Still on my first set, couldn't tell you how long the'd last but i daily my car also.
Decided it was about time I got rid of the dodgey rails that came with my seat, so I bought a bride side mount rail. Bolted it all up today after I drilled a couple of extra holes to get the seat sitting even lower, definately much nicer than what I was using before although I sit a little bit closer to the wheel now. The headgaskets just started leaking, so I thought I would make the most of it while the head was off. Shaved and ported the head, better valve springs, bigger cams and a 0.8mm Toda headgasket so it should go pretty well when it's all back together. I also bought a new kouki trueno bumper to replace the fibreglass one that's smashed to pieces.
I picked up all my parts for this today. According to the guys at Clive Cams it should go much better with these cams, dad's porting on the head and a bit of extra comp from shaving the head with a toda gasket. Got the cams at a great price, can't recommend Clive's enough. Also got my lightweight steel flywheel in the mail today from sc autoparts, looks to be a very nice bit of gear.

Nah just bought it with the cash I got for insurance for my first sprinter.
whats the CAM size?
dose
270 degree total duration w/ 233 at 50 thou and 8mm lift. A little on the bigger side for the standard ecu, but it should still be able to run them fine.
