Looking at building a wide arch kit but not sure how wide i should go. is there an optimum with for the tracking befor going to wide and having adverse affects on the handling? hope that just made sense?
wide enough for 12j wheels at the rear :)..
so you got a wide arch kit for yours?what make?
iv got front n rear wide arches, emm 20mm front n 30 rears i think..
I remember Atomic rex talking about this on one of the (suspension?/track car?) threads. Not sure which but there was some very good advice.
It was the thread with the yellow custom wide FD, basically from what I remember he was saying how it can mess with the cars roll centre.
I have a 30F 35R (mm) wider FD and it is a mission getting the suspension setup. I\'m only now slowly changing the original arms out for ones that offer more adjustability. Lots more to go too! Its very costly if you intend to use the car on track and go wide. If its for the street then its not as much of an issue.
heh Ben.....what are you using to get the adjustable arms?
Im in the process of getting new arms made for the rex that offer full ajustability, but if youve already found something then share the love man!
Not got all of them yet!! Big money indeed, as of now i only have toe links and trailing arms but I\'ll eventually get all of them so the car corners correctly. Ikeya Formula are the people in Japan, Nagisa Auto also do some too, listed the links below. How much are you looking at for yours (PM me if you\'d rather not post - thanks).
