You mean the raised subframe bushings? They make sense but then you'd have to get the raised diff cover bushing as well. Not exactly a negative but something to consider.

You need to use spacers on the diff mounts not a diff bushing.
12mm raised bushings you need 12mm spacers for the diff mounts.

just posted in the socal parts thread but figure I would cross post it here...

does anyone have an extra throttle cable or cruise control setup they can scavenge thats laying around and can bring a specific piece to pelican cars and coffee tomorrow?

I only need the little round fitting that goes in the white clip...

seen here:



I already called pelican and I couldn't pick it up today because they say it takes 24hrs to process an order and they are closed on the weekends

-____-

this is the specific piece I need :

I have that. I'm not sure what time I'll get there, from Riverside. I'll bring it.

The bushing is offset to raise the diff the same amount as the subframe.
Either one would work I suppose, but the bushing is poly so why not upgrade from stock while you are there?

Better option than spacers in my opinion.

Uhm. The diff is hard mounted to the subframe. If you don't space it your driveshaft will hit the gas tank.

Guys, my girlfriend surprised me today by getting me a ride in a new GT3 thru Exotics Racing over at Fontana. Ive seen it before and always thought it was a little douchey but man that car was a riot. I ended spending an extra $50 to get two extra laps, but it was totally worth it. I had a blast and was passing cars who had slower drivers. Not sure if I would spend my own money on it, but as a gift, I couldnt have asked for anything better to do after spending my morning looking at Porsches haha

[ak-]

Yeah, she's a keeper.

Those are the girls you impregnate "on accident".


Trust me, I know.

That's awesome, incredible gift!
