So....
@xfeejayx and I bought a 6 in February to build as a no holds barred autocross racecar.
Much of this is heavily influenced by @phate and @MS3brohanna , but it is a seperate build and diverges in some major ways from what they're already accomplished.
Here's a brief rundown of the progress:
Things done to the MS6 worth posting about:
· UMHW Solid Subframe Bushings
· Delrin Steering Rack Bushings
· RU Poly Control Arm Bushings (noting selective use of rear bushings)
· Front top hat spring seats
· Rear spring adjusters
· Extra caster through UCA bushing adjustment (TSB)
· Extra caster through shifting the LCA’s (TSB)
· 8 cell LiPo Battery
· Alternator Rec/Reg replacement.
· Bilstein valving/internals & bushing/bearings
· Rear suspension findings
· God's Rear Sway bar
· 10x17 wheels with spacers
· lowering
· Cherrybomb exhaust dump
· cabin air filter
· Racing Belts
· Custom Endlinks
Other things done to the 6(not worth posting)-
o VVT replacement
o Front wheel bearings
o Cobb sf Intake
o Transcase swap
o Ebc yellow pads
o DM RMM, OE spec PMM, CPE rear diff mount
o CS DP
o OE Shifter replacement and cable swap
o Pink stripes!
o Extended studs
o Base alignment work
o SPC front ball joints
o PS Cooler and EGR Blockoff
Things to be done
· Investigating the relationship between caster & weight jacking.
· Corner weighting
· Full suspension blueprinting via laaaasers
· @nindoja & the 5.5” OD springs.
· Monster intake
· Valve cleaning
· Custom UCA’s?
· Rear Camber arms
