SOCAL Fabricator

My RX-3 is now running on 85 struts/brakes along with GC ground control coil overs/springs and RE speed camber kit. However, it is running to low for my taste. My aging organs cant handle a rough ride. I need someone to copy the stock 1/4" thick triangular spacer. I need 2 sets: 1/2" and 1"

thanks and no postwhoring please.

Have you checked with RX Mist or whatever the name of that shop is? I figure that might be worth a shot. They do fabricate exhaust mani's and such. No reason they couldn't make what you need too. If not then shoot me the exact specs of what you need and I can check with my local sources.

Talking Good Fabricator in Southern California

Wackyracer, if you need any custom stuff made here is the name/telephone number to a fabricator I use for a lot of my custom stuff.
DRE (Dyda Race Engineering)
located in Gardena over by the Nissan building off the 110/405.
(310)768-3163 and ask for Bruce.

He is not cheap but, does really good custom work.

Good Luck

I used the stock 1/4 spacer but I think its still too low. Im not sure if lowering the rear will raise the front. OR I may just use TMC springs in the front and junk the GC coil overs.

If you just need a spacer, then just use a hacksaw and cut it out of aluminum. It will take a while with the 1" thick spacer but you'll save huge money. Just take whatever you are replacing and trace around it on the Al plate...then cut/grind/dremmel/file
