New goodies

As my 5 stud hubs are a custom unit, the thickness is slightly larger than that of a stock unit. This makes the stock wheel studs quite a bit shorter, not wanting to risk losing a wheel(s) at the track I orderd some Nismo 50mm long studs off Streeter.



Now pressed into the hubs..



The new lower control arm ball joints have arrived and I wasted no time pressing them into the arms along with some new polyurethane bushes from Super-Pro.

While the arms were stripped down, I took the opportunity to weld around the bushing mounts as visually they don't look that beefy.


Also welded underneath them..



New bushes and ball joints installed..



Subframe complete minus swaybar. Should be installed into the car in the next couple of days!


Look out for a running video clip soon!
