The Project Pad

So I'm going to order some tires this week as one of them failed early last week....oye

I think I'm going to stay with a 205 but I'm going to go with a yokohoma 205/50/15.

Supposed to have some really good grip.

See what you can find in a 215 width. Thats what im running at the moment. Try either Kumho XS or Falken 615K. Which Yoko's were you looking at?

can you still find the yoko avs100? in that size?

Might you be hitting the dyno yet this year? I'm anxious to see solid numbers.

I am planning on it. May be doing it in October in Boise on my way to BBQ

Was looking at these tires

Just bought the new tires. Decided to go with a 205/55/15 Nitto 450. Its the same style tire as what I ran on my dodge before the viper wheels and it handled insanely. Got them for a whopping $346 with free shipping brand new with no tax. God I love the internet.

YAY! I bet it handles lots better! Minus the fact it's on stilts.

ya ditto, im tired of hearing all this "mega cam makes sooooo much powah" BS without actual numbers

It makes sooo much power that a dyno wont handle it

LMAO!!! That's about right!

LOL. Dont worry...I got a "SPECIAL" cam grind I'm working on for the 20vt

Old tire was murdered on the inside........


New Tires!!! Nitto 450 205/55/15

I put Front CQ springs in the rear. It really helped level it out.

Got Timing Cover back from powdercoater today. Will be installing this weekend and will have pictures. It's gonna look soooooooooooooooooooooooo nice

in for cam data

What are the "fender to ground" - ride height measurements?

Nice progress though, I kind of like that's it sitting on stilts, makes it look more tough and usable in a rally car kind of way

Diggin that white man. Keep the updates coming ... cough... cough... you need to get that volvo turbo on ASAP!
