    Some video of the 034 Coupe at the Redline Time Attack this weekend.



    So, you've got a bunch of parts that need a lifetimes worth of abuse, tucked into a very short span of time? Oh, and you want to try to kick some *** on the way?

    Give them to Christian, he'll beat, abuse, destroy, pummel, compress, squish, crush, and twist anything he can if it means he'll get a little closer to the guy in front of him (or further from the poor bloke behind him).

    Here's the latest round, a practice session from the Redline Time Attack we attended this weekend with the coupe, more on that later with results and some nice finished media. For now, it's raw footage time sit down, pucker, and turn the speakers on up:


    Being abused in this latest round of..... tests:
    034 Control arms
    034 Spherical Tie Rods front and rear
    034 KW Variant 3 coil overs
    034 Quick Ratio rack
    034 subframe mounts front and rear
    034/Stasis Clutch pack limited slip rear differential
    and of course the beating heart of the beast, the 034'ed 20vt thats been causing shock and heartbreak of many an unsuspecting motor that tries to challenge it, only to have the coupe walk away in a 4-wheel power induced slide.

                Not a problem at all, Corey can get you guys setup with anything we carry BTW.

                The KW setup we've been running for a while now, definitely a marked improvement over what was available on the market before!

                These aren't your average 'drop-in' strut. We work with KW directly and modify your existing housings (or provide cores if needed), the stock strut tube is cut out and the new, much larger, body is tig welded directly to the uprights the tie-rod arm is rotated inward to allow greater tire clearance, then the shock is assembled. The V3's are tailorable to your needs, or we can recommend an 'off the shelf' setup for the average street/track car.

                and then there's the rear tie rods:


                I don't think I've got any pictures of the control arms handy, but they'll be available for release very soon, it's a full tubular control arm with provisions for spherical rod ends at the subframe. They offer a _lot_ more adjustability in the camber/caster department, and the precision and reduced friction from the sphericals are all win-wins.

                  It's always undergoing some sort of development, but here's a bit of a run-down on the setup: http://www.motorgeek.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4966

                        Most of the suspension parts fitted to Christian's Coupe are being fitted to our Titan so people will be able to see for themselves the benefit's.
                        The control arms are a huge development for 034 and is something they have spent many hours test and refining to bring the best product to market.

                            Basically lock to lock is about half as many turns as the OE item, still power assisted.
                            I am looking into rhd versions for us over here.
                            Roughly £500 each ish.
