Re: R&P for f20 swap suggestions...

go with 3.9 r&p. with 195/60-r14 tires your gearing will be a little higher than stock s2000, even your cluster will read fairly accurate. also, the s2000 engine produces a much higher amount of torque, placing more stress on your r&p. 3.9 gears will be stronger than 4.3 because of the desig...

Re: coilover forces

that's a nice guide on shocks and springs. as far as that suspension setup goes, it would be difficult to set it up on a vehicle with the engine up front. Any idea where I can find an answer to those questions? really puzzled by it and seems like information about this type of suspension geometry is...

Re: coilover forces

Thanks guys. OST, do you know how to calculate or what determines the best angle of inclination for the strut? Also, why is it not a common practice to use an upper A arm as a cam for the suspension assembly in the front of the car? Like in the pic below. It would reduce unsprung weight and also hav...

Re: coilover forces

Re: carbon fiber panel

very similar pieces just cut at different lengths and angles. one is Conrad's car the other is Ian's. i am guessing it is a European company that makes it.
