Re: [Jumbuck] suspension upgrades

Hi Jeff
Thanks for the information. I don't mind spending the money so much,Its more a case of finding the right parts to fit. I love this little ute but information is very hard to find as to which model parts will fit properly. Not many people seem to know much about them.I guess that can only improve in time.This is why I started this group as a learning excersize.
How did you find the top strut bar, On standard suspension I found it makes it want to over/under steer depending on the corner and speed into it.
Thanks for your input,all noted.
Regards neil

hi neil, jeff here i've lowered mine with a kit from fulcrum suspensions here in brisbane, in the front they use a 35mm lower coil and in the rear they replace the single leaf with a four leaf setup which brings the back down 75mm.the kit costs about 600 squids.fit yourself. if you want to go lower a lancer coil is available it's 65mm but for the rear you would have to get them specially made.i'm using stock shocks and sway bars.maybe a gti front sway bar will fit but a genuine one will cost the earth . a front gti bar is 2500 not painted or fitted. a driving light is 317.00 so don't brake em . most early mitsi stuff will fit 90 / 95 models. i guess it comes down to $$$$ a turbo from rpw is about 4k but u could go with a transplant 4g93 /4g63 /4g92t or mivec again wot $$$ anywho hope this gives u some food for thought i'm looking at a turbo as my son has just blown his 270hp silvia so a gt24 is looking goodany catch ya jeff
