I hope this isn't too new of a car to be posted here at lateral G but it's my only project and a car I've been wanting to build for a long time...

so far the suspension has Eibach springs and all tubular rear control arms... soon I'll add camber plates, a strut tower bar and a bumpsteer kit to the front and Tokico 5 way adjustable shocks and struts all the way around...

interior will have a 6 point rollbar, sparco seats, harnesses and wheel...

outside is getting a Saleen kit and wing...

pics so far...

Very nice!

Hey, I have a question... I have a '89 asc/McLaren (Mustang LX) with a 5.0/5-speed. I am interested in hopping the engine a bit, maybe with a top end kit. I don't want to go too crazy, so I was thinking of the Holly Systemax or one of the others. Any thoughts?

Beautiful strut brace by the way!

Shiny Side Up!

yea made the strut tower brace setup... I wasn't too keen on the ones available ( they only connect the strut towers to the firewall ) so I designed my own... total cost was around $40 to build it ( those heim joints are not cheap) the metal I got from work :)... all DOM .120 wall.

those are good setups pro touring442... I could have saved some money by using one of those probably but I'm happy with my results ( roughly 450 hp ) all motor.
