Front Struts/Shocks
Hello everyone... I am trying to make a decision on what to type of inserts to put into my racecar... I have looked at KYB- KONI...However I cannot find anything that will give me performance that I need...
I would like to put Builstein's on the front... However I cannot find them on their site... Anyone have a part number...
Anyone have a sugestion and part number for something "good"...

Say hello to Mr.Wankel

im currently building my 7 for a street car that will hopefully see some track time and maybe become a full track time car. from what ive gathered, there is no substitute for bilstein. you can get bilsteins but your front strut assembly has to modified to fit it. theres a company in florida that will do this for you as well as fit an adustable spring perch on the assembly for a really decent price. they carry lots of good products for a good price for the 1st gen. what do you plan on building your car for? i havent decided what class or type or racing yet. cause my car is so modified i dont think ill be able to compete in the class id be in. anyways, heres the website to the place i was telling you about. theyre known for having great service and products.

for reference, ISC uses Part # P30-4504, and valving 0032MO.
Your mileage may vary, these do require the new strut tubes. If you call him, tell Mike/Tracey... Marcus Miller says Hi!
IT7, shoot me an email, marcus-at-miller-dash-motorsports-dot-com I've been going through strut choices like crazy....
on edit, I have 2 complete sets of the ISC bilsteins that I ran during the 25 hours of Thunderhill last year, so I'm "somewhat" familiar with them...

I am happy with the Tokico blues and eibach springs. I have this setup and there is no need for a strut bar as this suspension is stiff as hell! Went thru the gap very nice last year. I do have the rb front/rear sway bars as well. I like it and was in my price range. Let us know what you run and how it works out as I will be building a 79SA/GSL/TII car this year so will need a sweet suspension.

Man, nice site. Do you have the red car set up with that setup? Do you ever get down to Nashville tn? I would really love to drive a 7 with that setup on it.
I will be putting a TII motor/tranny/ecu/harness in to a 1st gen sometime this year and would love to see how that setup works to see if it is what I need for mine.
