Re: Suspension lowering, angles and set-up

Hi guys, heres a pic of the modification done to one our race cars. Another Fiat 131, once again to correct the lower arm angles. However as you can see theres a bit more room to play with on a 131 subframe, aswell as the fact its running over 500lbs front springs, so theres none, if any suspension ...

Re: Complete 360 transmission with recond GLT box

How much for coilovers? coilies need to be built up however pretty much all the parts are there, bar a pair of bearings and springs. £150 takes them and I can post at extra cost. Brand new gas inserts, good condition OE rubber top mounts, brand new coil over conversion collars with spring top cup t...

Re: Suspension lowering, angles and set-up

just a thought... now after a rather in depth and heated discussion with a few drifters the other day, I think ive come across something interesting. see now I always say, when your setting up a car, you lower it, stiffen it, and drop the nose so it has rake. The lowering gives a better centre of gr...

Re: 360 transmission

oh yeah indeed there are the few extras but I've just outlined the main ideas I had :) i would do away with the 340 linkage stuff completley to be honest, I would indeed add the gearlinkage connection/mount to the adaptor, no point putting on the bell housing as that's yet another 'custom' part eh? ...

Re: 360 transmission

I've looked into this before, it is rather simple if you know what your doing, or have the money to get the stuff made thats needed. This is how i thought about doing it; First things first, the 340 transmission, 4 mounts on the gearbox, 2 front 2 back, and 4 mounts on the engine, 2 front 2 back/bel...

Re: Suspension lowering, angles and set-up

It is indeed a Riva :) I am looking for an LSD but not sure on the power capabilities of the axle just yet. It'l be getting a twincam from the fiat/lancia range of engines once i've got the money for it :)

Re: Suspension lowering, angles and set-up

I think we need lower arm shots of all the different heights people are running, wheel size doesn't matter. I suspect the majority of you are running dais lowering springs too. I just had a look and measured it to be about a maximum of 60mm of room to move the lower arm mount up on the subframe. how...

Re: Suspension lowering, angles and set-up

Matt, you want the lower arms angled upwards, so the ball joint end is lower than the subframe end. You want this so under braking and cornering, when the front end dives, the subframe mounting point moves down so the two points at each end then become parallel on the horizontal. This in turns liter...
