wow not bad..

so wat exactly was needed?

The lower fork mount for the rear shock is 5mm wider than the bush, requires spacer which I made on the lathe.

I used the upper mount off the originals but used the rubbers off the BC's

The height on the rear is wound right out, this is as far as the springs can go. You could possibly run a thicker rubber spacer, or new springs if you needed more height.

I would say this may have been designed for an arx, do the actual mounts change position on those compared to mine?

Looks good Scotty. The rear is very low.

From what I have read there is no difference in the components between the RS and ARX for suspension.

I would love to rip the wheel off one. Anybody around south east Melb with an ARX? :P

So what gives the ARX its height if the parts are the same?

It is the springs, shock and wheel size.

If you want to send me your VIN I can check some of the part numbers be your car and mine and see if they are different.

You mentioned that you used the mounting on the rear from the old shocks. I had to do the same with the Bilstiens also.

Hi Scotty, if you still need to see an ARX, let me know...

      Got this r31 silhouette flood car to rebuild.

      By 25RBGT · Posted

      So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov

      That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu.

      Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.
