Those rims look great on your car. Good choice!

Thank you sir! I wish they were white but I suppose the matte grey is a little more subtle

JTP is driving for most of this :icon_tup:

This thing is awesome! Great build.

Sweet build man. I'm currently researching this for myself. Just checking nothing major gets in the way for RHD cars as I'm in AUS.

The aero kit I got for this thing didn't fit quite right...actually the rear didn't fit at all. So before I set it on fire in a raging fit I cut valences out of it. Deciding if it'd be worth cleaning them up and running a rear diffuser and nice 3.5'' exhaust out of the passenger side.


And yeah there's a fair bit of reverse rake going on, it clears everything and gets awesome angle set up like this so I'm going to leave it for now. It'd look way cool with more camber in the front and lowered 2'' but....maybe later.

Id probably leave it stock bodied but great job on the swap. That chassis is easier to swap than it was in my FD

Some shots of the bash bar we made out of scrap and the Parts Shop Max LCA's which are currently on Jtp's Fc for all star bash.

Glad I finally found the build thread for this car. I love it! What kind of quick release are you using on your wheel and do you like it? Looking into getting one myself.

Just a basic NRG release. It's alright, this is the second one I've had where the safety button has failed though. If you want a serious unit, get a sparco quick release.

thank you for letting me use the lca's! I'm super pumped with what PBM has going on with FC parts! definitely some really good suspension/steering solutions!

Definitely taking it to the next level. I've heard of people modifying stock LCA's but nothing like this.

as they say... LEVEL UP!

Back on the topic of the engine swap...can anyone recommend a good source for small diameter LED lights? I'm working on an idiot light set up, the wiring is all done but I have yet to see a decent indicator light that would fit in this small space. This goes where the stock clock/idiot lights used to go.

If all you are looking for is a light these are only 5mm in size so they should fit. You would just need to make a panel.

Also, was curious about the LCA's. Is there enough room with those to run 18's up front? Just curious because I know there's usually a clearance issue there.

So the PSM lca's have sway bar provisions now? Nice! What dimensions are the wheels?

Thanks for the reference...yes you can run 18's up front, however to maximize the effect of the LCA, you should aim for a 17x9+20.

Yes, being able to run the sway bar was a huge concern. My wheels are 17x9.5+17...ideal size is 17x9+20.

Anyone know when the LAC's will be available?

I heard December but I'm not 100% on that. Check out the parts shop max link in my sig or their Facebook page for more up to date info.

Thanks. I'm definitely going to keep an eye out for these.
