I have been looking for a all around suspension set up. Good for auto X but will hold up for drag racing. Any suggestions would be great.

 

Get the apex N1 and youll be happy or some tiens

I think i would go for the Apexi worldsports for the 2nd choice instead of the tiens.

 

how about ground controls 450f/500r teamed with koni yellow?
anyone with similar set up?

yo proclassracer, your racecar looks sick! good luck with it.

 

TEIN makes some great stuff if you want to spend the money, and they can completely customize any product they sell, I even called them up to ask them a few questions and they were really helpfull as well as most models have independently adjustable compresion and rebound.. anyway my $0.02

 

how much for the whole kit?... and where can i get it from?

 

Wow, did they change the rules in the Hot Rod Class?

I thought you had to maintain a firewall and stock suspension mounting points.

I spoke with you at SEMA. Nice car.

 

anyone try drag racing with AGX shocks yet? I wanna see if the price difference is worth it or not for konis

my agx made a huge difference in my 60 ft times.

 

The kit is retails for about 4500 without wheels. It is made by Nuforms.

 

It still is considered stock mounting points. At the time this was made the car was intended for Hot Rod class but now has changed to Pro. The suspension is still legal for Hot Rod though. The mounting points are still stock with the shock being relocated.

 

No offence, but aren't you going to get owned in Pro Class? RWD Tube Chassis Cars...Correct me if I'm wrong.

Suprdave

 

from that pic above, the front control arm where it meets the floorboard doesnt look like its mounting point is still stock.

 

Hey you may wanna check the rules and classes before you post next time. For the 2003 season FWD will be seperated from RWD. FWD tube chasis cars are considered PRO FWD class and RWD are PRO RWD.........NOW WHOS BEEN OWNED?

Read up son.... http://www.nhrasportcompact.com/2002/news/102901.html

Rules for Hot Rod states that "only the factory upper mount must be retained". Before Sean designed this kit he looked into the rules of ALL sanctioning bodies to comply with the rules. I believe there is an article on the kit in Turbo this month. Anybody interested may wanna check it out for more details.

Thruthfully if you look at both in my opion there pretty much the sam but than again you have to see who all is runnung the mb version over the nuformz which is not to many basically your really paying for the brand . The nuformz uses lamb which is second to none in chassis components and than theres hal shocks which is a great brand but second rate in my book compared to lamb . Than again im not the one to listen to on this subject you might wanna ask someone that actually has either the mb unit or the nuformz one tony1 runs it on kennys car and i think i remember earl posting pic's of it awhile back as well . Now me I run rpm which is a little old fashion compared to these units but i think they get the job done for now that is . Hehe i might have to upgrade later in the season.-pdang
Rpm


mb

nuformz

 

now the ultimate question is front suspension im looking for someone that knows something about aftermarket front spindles for chassis cars similar to that of kennys or jojos car there setup is made only for b series motor due to the axles but i was looking at it and think a competant chassis man can produce something similar to it i think the price jg quoted to me was out of this world in the 8 range so im aiming a little lower.-pdang

 

Something like this?


If interested,albeit for a chasis car drop me an email for info

Bambooluv...I think I took that last pick of the lamb susp. lol

Picture aint working

 

hehe yeah proclass racer i borrowed that pic from you but the front suspension you run isnt that also the same as kennys and jojo's custom made by tactics correct ? if so what would be your cost for them and would they be able to make the inner shafts fit a lude motor . blemoine02 john moore also makes suspension for you car http://www.nittrodriveline.com same i think as mark williams except his kit comes with a aftermarket spindle.-pdang

proclassracer youve got mail-

Well when i read the article on them it stated that everyone that went to the finals or won all used john more drive line components last season in nhra powerade series cars . The complete kit with carbon brakes is 5500 and w/o for 4500 the lude series dosent come with a spool like the b series thats what he told me when i was talking to him-pdang
