The new CR (Gregg's pictured above and below) has more dish than the last one (see below), but IMHO it could still be more....

The older CR (Mikes, Mine, Bens, Leigh, Gav a few Phil's and how can I leave out most original 2009 winner.
Do have less dish than the newer version (Gregg's), I would like more on mine but I think that the new CR is about right, I have seen many that have too much just for the sack of having deep dish.

Aussie Mike has come up with a rear suspension setup that allows more dish.
But not really related to this thread unless you buy a built or partial built car.

Edit, I forgot that Mando has also modified his rear for deeper dish.

Think through your selection of manufacturers very carefully. I would still look at a CR but I would have the hindsight of knowing that the CR needs the rear end to be narrowed and the top of the front guards need rounding of to remove the droopy eyelid look. I still love the look of the G-Force and nearly bought one myself, but the 40 year old rear and front end were just to old and to heavy. Again it wouldn't be a big job to introduce modern top and lower arms using someone like McDonald Brothers in Melbourne.

Regards.

I went with a Harrison kit with the factory 5 rear end. This allows a pretty deep dish, like the dish Warren has in this thread.

I have seen mine on all 4's and it looks pretty mean with a huge 315 tyre there and deep dish. I am pleased that I went this way.
