Are they motorcycle rear shocks

If you'd switch the left seatmount inwards, you could go some cm's more to the tunnel and perhaps a bit more backwards and away from the upper bar.

I am looking for the size of ball joints for double wishbone could you tell me the size you used ?

I saw..and I clicked IM HERE FOR IT HAHA

Happy to see a new episode drop, keep them coming!

ive binge-read your forum posts and I'm so glad this build is still alive. You are truly an inspiration of fabrication talent and design skills.

im currently building a kswap e46 track car and your build series gives me a lot of motivation and hope i will be able to get mine across the line. there are days where i really question if i should abandon and sell my project but the thought of meeting you at wtac one day and telling you you are my inspiriation keeps me going.

basically the same as my BRZ.

I like your suspension!

Cool project! It seems you’d be so much better off with LHD setup though - away from the exhaust/muffler, steering wouldn’t be close to the turbo… but I assume rules don’t allow that.

amazing project. unbelievable amount of work already done, and perhaps even more to come.

Good content friend

It's been really cheap to make, only $30 worth of steel (and $2000 worth of pedal box, bias bar, master cylinders) 🥳

04:00 oh yea i was wondering!

Awesome work, subscribed!

Are you sure you mounted it the right way round? How can you drive with all that shit (metalwork) under your heels. I've been racing for 50+ yrs and would find it imposible to drive like that.

Hey Joel - your latest video just showed up in my feed, now taking a look at a few of your older ones. It's a great project and you've made some serious progress! Many similarities in our builds, when I started it my wife asked me "how long?"... I said 5 yrs... currently on year 6 (and about 2000 hrs in) and I still have a lot left to do. Next big hurtle is wiring and tuning, so good chance to learn something new. Being amateur builders, most people don't appreciate it takes us as long (or longer) to plan and design each 'next step' as it takes to actually fabricate those parts! Plenty of opportunities for developing new skills along the way - definitely a big time commitment (I grossly underestimated the effort).... and thousands of problems and decisions along the way (and spending too). Looks like your leg healed up quite well, no limp. I can relate - I shattered my ankle 2 yrs ago in a climbing fall and had to have it fused, it's no fun being injured and frustrating when recovery keeps you away from making progress on the project. I'll definitely be on the watch for your next post - keep at it!

Great video, thanks mate.

love seeing a new upload on this project, thanks for sticking with the series 👍

looks awasome

I can see the screen for the first time without the V8 engine. I just so happen to know. I really enjoy Hayabusa engines in cars.

Still OE location of the sway bar?

Love the work you’re putting into the car. Its very informative. Keep it up! Can’t wait until she’s done!

Wow bro nice skateboarding! You look amazing!❤

Wow... I'm currently an FSAE student and was just browsing the internet when I stumbled across your build on the FT86club forums. Just read the whole thread for the past hour and a half and I am absolutely mesmerized by your fabrication skills. I'm so excited to see where your build goes.

Need more updates please!!!!

Are you going to do a DCT?

Why retain the strut tower that's no longer being used? Kind of an eyesore.

How did u design ur setup? I’m trying to design my own pushrod setup and I’m having a hard time figuring out where to even start really

I like the control arm design.How much travel does it have since the heim joints are mounted horizontal?

Promo*SM

I see you converted to an SLA setup up front. Are they and your knuckles custom, or did you use a base from another car?

Nice but just get a Honda at this point

You're doing a good job. But it sounds like time attack has some pretty stupid rules. Sports sedans are much easier, you can build a full tube space frame chassis and don't have to worry about building custom front suspension while retaining the factory chassis rails and strut towers. Anyway good luck with the project, im keen to see more 😊

Looks amazing so far dude!!

Beautiful work, Joel. I'm glad to see the pivot for the pushrod suspension is being held in double shear. I was having some elevated blood pressure until I saw the upper mount. 👍

I imagine you’ll want to mill a couple of flat spots onto that adjustable pushrod so you can use a wrench for the adjustment.

holy shit

Great attention to detail, just like the rest of the build! Can’t wait to see you fanging it up a hill!!

Hey mate. Watching some of your vids again as they are just great info and entertainment for a car nerd like me. Moving the front suspension forwards will help by inadvertently shifting the centre of mass more to the rear, which will help the balance and make it rotate more easily on the first half of the corner. Love ya work mate.

👍👍👍

How many episodes will there be about building a slipway? 😂

So cool！！！

Respekt 🎉

That's some sexy suspension there, Joel. Looking good and can't wait to see it on the track.

This is really cool to watch mate, keen to see more progress.

Enjoyed the viewing. Keep up the good work. Rex in NZ.

Love this song bro

If you're going to put the exhaust downpipe there, I suggest using A LOT of heat shielding. And I mean A LOT. Also considering trying to pump cooling air through that section. Since it'll get VERY hot very quickly.

The exhaust position seems too close to the pedal box, the exhaust might heat up and boil the brake fluid.
