intersting stuff

anyone have ballpark figure to engineer a 20v and the appropriate brake upgrade and coilovers....

i going to get it done in a few weeks and wondering what to expect

[Tim.duncan]

In Sa height adjustable suspension (coilovers) are not allowed. the only way you can have them in your car is to weld the adjusting nuts...... which makes having coil overs useless. Just out of curiosity how many people on hear have coil overs? and if you do when you corner weighed your car were the weights pretty good to start with? did you move much weight around to get them better?
on the other topic they would probely at least like rear discs.
cost we 700 for the brakes and engine report from my enginear

bugger dizzy relocator,

spend the extra money go aftermarket ecu and coils

you know your going to want the aftermarket ecu anyway for power, may as well do it right first time

as far as paying the engineer to check the car out and fill in the paper work....

It cost me $300 for everything...which is pretty good considering.

im pretty sure in NSW its a flat $300 rate to get everything done

and getting a 20v will be much easier to do that a ca because you are still using an unmodified cross member and its not turboed.
