I do both, and honestly probably use mig for most things, but whenever I get a chance to pull out the tig I do it, I don't care if it takes longer. It's so clean, and such a concentrated arc, the heat distortion is extremely minimal!

Oh, wait, is that a 2jz e30 already? Should I keep linking the others? Seems like you are just doing what others are doing. Now if you put a built VR38DETT in, you'd be doing something not evrryone has done, or seen specifically seen on this sight. ;)

Love how so many jerkoffs on this site think they are entitled to crap on people's parade. "I'm just saying i haven't seen specifically what I'm doing on here." Now that he has seen one, scamper off and go crap on someone else's thread.sigpic

Originally posted by unevolved View PostIt's only the leading suspension architecture in series in which it's required. Most of the series you're thinking of require the stock architecture as they're based off production cars. From a dynamics standpoint, SLA is far superior to McPherson. I can recommend some good books on the subject if you're interested.

now 2j is gone for one reason, no really a good powerband for road racing, shitty powerband for corner power and exit power, plus I change my mind more than underpants. for instance, I decided yesterday that I wasnt doing the 2j, as I evaluated my options I looked into the builds of about 6 different engines. But my mind is made up because I bought one. picked it up tonight. Yes it has been done before. not sure to what extend im sure its been plenty, but dont care. so lets see if anyone can guess whats under this tarp. It will have 450hp when finished, and a flat power curve. Thats all for now
