A bit more info on billet suspension arms. I had these arms made to take advantage of positive offset Corvette wheels that I was intending to run on my "Pace" car. Note that the hub is moved closer to center line of wheel. I have also introduced "Modified" Ackerman steering geometry and changed progression by moving steering rack toward axle centre. ( see sketches )
The main object of this setup is smoother cornering with less understeer and to do away with static toe out - which can make the car unstable.

Some one with a Pace should jump on those arms quick smart. Sounds like the trick track day setup to me.

Cheers

Leroy - it's not too late. Sweet talk Muz into paying you a visit to front-half the Arntz chassis and retrofit some billet loveliness...

Stop it !

Seriously though, it's worth thinking about. But these really should have been snapped up by someone with a pace as a cool alternative to run different wheels and change a whole look and set up.

Stop side trackin me, I am slowly on course and things like this is like doing a u-turn with an aircraft carrier.

Have you got any keeper springs Dave?
I started on the coupe yesterday assembling upper arms and coil overs and I will need some keeper springs to stop the main spring from bailing out if I am to get it to sit as low as I want to.
