Does the faster response from the quickener help? i thought it would be too sensitive when steering. is it worth the $100?

u cant use it with the power steering rack .. i think with the na power rack it has a better ratio .. the power rack will be way way to fast, it was under one turn lock to lock..

Dang yeah looks like a lot of time and thought has went into the car. Makes me want to go do work to mine. certainly not knocking the car at all but from a driver standpoint I could not do those door bars! From a mechanics standpoint I wonder about the engine brace. It would all just depend on the persons involved though as to merits and demerits. Also how are you gonna shift with the Ebrake right there? Car looks badass. good work.

in im albuquerque nm 87111
the ebrake is just setting there its not done im going to put it on the left of the shifter..
as for the fire wall i just wanted it to look cleaner..
this is my first big drift car .. most of this car is done how i want it not by the book.. bec i just want to have fun in it im not going pro, i dont have the money for that..

this motor made 461 @ 11 psi with old set up.. how i have better turbo intercooler manifold and exh manifold and 4in exh so it will make 500 at 15psi pump
