looking good man

i like the stance that has, do you have any pictures of the lowering blocks?
as i need to make/buy some
thanks

wel the lowering blocks are just some box section with some flat steel welded on the end
as long as its think enough steel it should be fine just make sure its think enough
mine seem ok even with my axel bent

just cleaned my car and took some photos think it looks ok now i think a tad lower but its all ready on bumpstops

looks good man.
Remove bumpstops.

theve been cut down and i cant other wise i cant fit the rims on haha

well after lowering it the side exit i made hit most speed bumps and im not rely a fan of side exits so out came the welder and grinder and i also put a flexi joint in as its daft volvo no putting one so under the axle and out the back it went tucked up as high as i dare with only one mid box of a escort lol its pretty quiet as well but firstly i made some check straps to stop the axle dropping away and hitting the exhaust so looking round and thinking what i could use i saw some old seat belts cut them to length bolted them to form a loop and bob yours uncle they work spot on just a one pic as you cant see alot and yes there is about 3 different pipes to make it come out the back as i didnt have one piece long enough and i couldnt be arsed to go buy a bit needs finishing like grinding welds and tidying up the rear hanger

Seatbelt

Do you not go over 1000rpm or something?!?! I'd be worried as hell of the fire risk

Actually, I still dont get what it's actually doing... so scrub the above

nar it wont catch fire it hardly gets warm there and ive made them so when the axle travels to its lowest it not hit the exhaust
as ive tucked it up as not to scrap they arent tight against they is plenty of free play in them

last sunday i went along to a drift day down Birmingham thinking i wasnt going to skid as i rely didnt think my 1.4 would be able to spin up but after mike calling me a puff and saying just do it i got on track and to to my shock it did very well in fact and i rely enjoyed the afternoon skidding and the car never missed a beat im still waiting for other people to upload other pics and videos but for now ive got 2 good pics and a vid of everyone having a bash

cool video, laughing at that guy in the smashed BMW

Nice vid man.

yeah, looking at the back of that BMW, he must have bopped it a few times.

yer thats mike gaynor brilliant drifter he dont like e36 so its pushing his skills getting dam close to the wall should see him lol
and thats his daily we had to pull out all the light area and bash the boot lid down so he could get his lights back in and drive home haha

Loving that E36/wall action.

Your 1400 skids well mate. The track looks bone dry too?

yer it was baking hot i didnt think it would skid but the tarmac is dead old and as soon as poeple lay down some rubber it gets slippy
didnt rely struggle thou just falt out and clutch action im waiting for better vids as later on i could link up the hole track
