RX2 Struts / Springs
Going to load up our RX2 to race in the 24 Hours of Lemons this weekend...
Anyone know where I can get struts that will fit the car at the last minute? Just sitting in the car causes it to nearly flip over! :D Once you get the car bouncin... It doesn't stop. This is just in the driveway idling. Texas World Speedway os gonna Eat Us UP!!! :lol: Car has a dyno proven 200whp half bridgeport (dynod when in our FC) - this thing should be a handful with stock crappy brakes and no suspension to speak of. It looks and sounds AWESOME though. |
I could sell you virtually brand new KYB shocks and King lowering springs. Not by this weekend though....
|
U can use first gen front with the re-speed spacers and S5 rear for the rear.
|
i need to change or update my suspension too
|
The front Shocks can be rebuilt (assuming they aren't rotted away) so you can have a go at that if you want, and who needs brakes when you have a transmission =P

Rebuilding ur struts is expensive. I've called a place in Michigan that does that and they wanted $350 Plus shipping for the fronts rebuild. I would just swap out for first gen cartridges. |

http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/2012...y-rides-again/ Reviving an old thread and YES, thats the car. We are going to give this another go in Houston in a few months. The suspension was downright scary at TWS. I may just go with springs and struts - if I can find them. However, changing bolt patterns to something more available would be a plus so major suspension changes are up for discussion too. Discuss! Even better - hook us up! We aren't asking for free, but it IS Lemons so cheap is okay! I know you old schoolers would LOVE to see the RX2 actually be somewhat competitive again. |
U can swap everything from a GSLSE. Will need to shorten rearend but that will give u full disc brake and a 4x114.3 bolt pattern.
