Wait. You have three threads with practically the same thing in Evo General, Evo Show and Shine and in Road Course Tech.

No, I have a thread in show'n'shine with a teaser pic strictly for show'n'shine purposes and then a full install/review/results thread here. I don't know what you're referring to in "road course tech."

My fault. The layout on http://www.evotuners.net/ is similiar and I thought it was a link within evom, and I just realizd the link was not evom.
Nice install though

Yeah, EvoM just updated yesterday and now has the exact same look and feel as Evotuners within the forums/threads.

Haha, yeah, when I picked up the bushings in their individual bags, I saw the WORKS logo and was like WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!! OH well, I know the parts are good, so it doesn't matter, but it was quite a funny moment as I sifted through all the bushings, haha.

No, everything here was designed and configured by Paul Gerrard who is known here as Chronohunter (EvoM Guru).

are V710s not available in a 285/35/17? I am going to start doing time trials in 07 and am wondering if it's worth the expense to go to a 17x9.5 vs. my 17x9s. I don't want 18s...too big, and the tires are more $$.

No, but they come in 275/40-17, which is what I wanted to use on a 17X9 or 17X9.5 Enkei RPF1 (very light), but there were two problems: 1) RPF1s are susceptible to spoke flex under heavy load (which I intend to cause), and 2) the 275/40s are too tall to fit properly without fender modification. So, I stepped up to 18s so that I could fit some big rubber and still fit with the stock fenders. I had never wanted 18s, but the extra cost was necessary for completing my setup the way I wanted it...

[cough] Vishnu! [cough]

Why not just "admit" you have a Vishnu package on your car? Neither Big Al or Buschur are involved in any real chassis development anyway. I know Paul is the man behind the package's development, but down to the bushings and spring rates, that is a standard Vishnu (gasp) package.

I'd like to see some results when you run with some of the big boys. Be sure to post up when spring time rolls around and Tunnel rolls that beast of the trailer.

edit...damnit! nils beat me to the punch...

I just give credit to the man who did all the work. The bushings are from Works, the end links from Perrin, and the springs are from Hypercoil. Vishnu had the business sense and vision to put it all together and join forces with Paul, so that is to their credit, but I don't interact with them - I only interact with Paul.

Yeah, I'm eager to see what happens when Bob whips out the big daddy M3. Our local SM winner for this region last year also had an E36 M3 (I finished 3rd), but Bob beat him by 2-3s EACH DAY in our Denver National, so I know that he's a long shot for me to even sniff his jock. First, I have to be able to beat my local champ soundly, then I can worry about even being top 20 at Nationals.

The War on Iraq is still going, EvoM changed its format.....and now Warr is sporting Vishnu part.........some one call the devil and find out if hell froze over too. Warr i never thought i would see the day .

Nah i am just giving you a little $hit, hey man good luck with that new set-up. I have read some of the stuff Chronohunter has posted....he's good. So obviously you got a nice set-up. Oh and for the individual that asks if Warr turns his own wrenches.....Nahhhhhh he's a pre-madonna . Just kidding, he has been known to get dirty, just not since he has people that can bust their knuckles for him.

So what's up Warr, ehrn are you gonna talk to Dave to get a suspension package togeather ??

Oh and P.S. don't "Harmann" your ride with that new set-up
