dude hurry up to give an ETA and a price range, we are about to install everything on our car, including arms and solid subframe bushings on our race car. Starting to take apart the suspension tomorrow...

If you can provide a better solution for a nice price, i would sell all my parts and get yours instead.

In the mean time, if you can build a set of adjustable bumpsteer correction front tie rod ends, that would be nice, only thing i am missing and can't find.

So, where exactly is the tubular rear subframe? I see pictures of a modified stock subframe with solid bushings? Did I miss something?

Pretty sweet stuff, @Manji!

I'm curious about the nyloc nuts you guys used on the toe links in place of castle nuts and cotter pins. Have the nyloc nuts proven to be kosher under 'extreme' or track use?

So the suspension links (all the pieces shown inside the trunk) are still in the testing phase or they are the final design?

Since you're in Quebec, contact MSI (Moore Sport). They already have control arms on the market for this platform, as well as tubular subframes for other platforms. I'm sure they could easily build one (won't be cheap) for you.

http://www.mooresport.com/indexe.php...-rear-subframe

Their prices aren't as nice as other companies, but they do offer some nice features. The rear UCA's are adjustable on the car, no needing to pull it out of the knuckle to adjust it.

They aren't cheap, but they're VERY high quality. They'll also build custom stuff, like one off knuckles to custom specs.
