bigkevracer Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 What's the point of having an email address and form on your web site if you're not going to respond to queries?

bigkevracer Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 rims? pffft. would have gone bracing and swaybars Where's the best place to get the bracing from? I've got the strut brace, which I'll get some photos of shortly, but every time I add something, sway bars, strut brace, it gets that much nicer to drive!

Daleo Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) not yet spending to much as it is ROFL waiting on my rims to turn up in mid august now It might be time to throw up another Sway Bar GB, once everyone gets past tax time? Ryan, how much plenum to brace clearance did you end up with? Enough to run a spacer?

WAGON_BOY Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 just make a spacer on the strut to jack it up a bit Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/357886-lambchop-with-a-renault-axis-here/page/12/#findComment-5912752 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daleo Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 just make a spacer on the strut to jack it up a bit That's not the issue; how much clearance from the brace to the bonnet will be the crucial part. The plenum is already close enough to the underside of the bonnet with the plenum spacer. My guess; not enough...

zei20l Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 is the engine cover on when there is only 4mm of clearance? underbody bracing can be found on import monster. thats where i got all mine Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/357886-lambchop-with-a-renault-axis-here/page/12/#findComment-5912801 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigkevracer Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 No, engine cover isn't on, and there isn't really enough thread on the struts to space it up adequately. I'll either get the underbody bracing then test without the strut brace, or just test with the spacer anyway. I do like the strut brace though, turn in is definitely improved. Just exposes how much I need a set of new shocks though...

Commsman Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I do like the strut brace though, turn in is definitely improved. Just exposes how much I need a set of new shocks though... Do you think there was a big improvement over the swaybars alone? I travelled over a very tight, twisty road a few days ago & I broke something as there is now a knocking noise. I'm thinking the shocks finally gave up their last. New BC's were ordered a week ago anyway.

New BC's were ordered a week ago anyway. Definitely. You can really feel the difference, even without doing some serious twisties. I'll get a better idea this weekend on the SA cruise. I like it the way it is, which makes me wonder if I should sacrifice it for the benefit of having the plenum spacer. Not in any hurry.
