    Are you in the deep south (Sundance/Midnapore)? I think I've seen you driving around. That's Drago (or Darko)'s old car? I thought he had it tuned by rage2 or something.

    Are you planning on making that traction bar as a bolt on? If you can make one for the right price, I might be interested in one.

    Out of curiosity, what will set yours apart from the one that you took out (and the ones already out in the market for that matter)?

    my last one kept braking and mine is going to be mostly welded in cause of the damage my old traction bar made.

    a typical traction bar just goes down on a 3 inch peice of steal.
    no support for when the wheel draws closer to the firewall when you have wheel hop. mine is in a tianguler form so that when it tourqes back it is supported and shouldnt rip itself off this style should be alot stiffer to keep the wheels in place i supose. im sure there are traction bars out there that work great like the obx, but since my last one was welded in and had to be cut off, im safer bolting it in the areas i still have and welding it.

    Nice going and it's always great to follow along with progress builds like this.

    My opinion on clutch flywheel is that you've got it out and plan to make bigger power, so for the cost of a flywheel and clutch combo I'd personally just replace it anyway. Just me.

    Group buy on a Full-Race one?

    Ohh, I likey.

    You have good taste buddy.

    Try a different set of wheels this time. Those Axis are getting to Sportmax status with played out.





    Or even these:


    Anyways, good luck with the build.

    I think if you getting that much wheel hop you should get a 3-bar tune, so you don't spin so much and the coilovers will help a ton. Personally I would still go with Full-race for the traction bar
