  • Those are some stout looking drop forks. I got the old school suspension techniques but yours look way cooler! Good stuff going on here.

    Awesome! I love mine. Does your intake at least skirt the battery?
    It almost touches the battery. I'm looking into replacing it with something factory if possible.

    I should make my own build thread. At least for photos.

    Keep up the good work, I'll be following along!
  • What brand of drop-forks are those? (and do they make rear LCA's as well?)
  • I believe they are mpc motorsports drop forks.

    I've got all the stuff for the factory intake system, I'd be happy to sell it and shop it of you need it! Definitely should make a build thread (unless you already have and I haven't looked yet lol) thanks man.

    Dylan was correct they are mpc motorsports drop forks and no they do not make lcas yet.

    Some pics from the blue wagons first rallyx since the balljoint breaking, the stock struts are completely blown. Luckily I have some kyb agx for the front and tokico illuminas for the rear to remedy that problem. You will notice Shenrie's rally wagon in the pics also, almost twins

    Installed some Prelude Si seats in the blue wagon, It was a royal pain. But they are so much more comfy and look 10x better.

    Also got a bra for the red wagon, put on koni yellows/extended top hats/megan coilovers along with EM poly bushing rear LCAS. I will get some ground controls when I have the extra $$$. Along with that I did my first string alignment, turned out pretty damn close.

    Few pics from Rallycross, There are a few with Shenrie's wagon in them as well!! SO much fun! I installed kyb agxs in the front and tokico illuminas in the rear along with h&r OE sport springs (lowered it more than I wanted) Also, replaced trans fluid and changed the oil!

    Well unfortunately the blue wagon was t boned while my daughter was driving it, luckily she walked away without a scratch. The red one was sold...then the guy wrecked that as well. Sad day.
    I picked up another rt for cheap, but it needed some help. I put in a Jdm sohc zc, y8 intake manifold, innovative mounts, new clutch, all seals, 4-1 header, 2.5" cat bac, and replaced fixed a bunch of body panels. It's an 88'
    This is when I got her home, she was sure purty

    For now just get it cleaned up and drive it, probably make it all one color lol. It's got low mileage but it had a rough life.

    Yup I'm aware of that, was just getting img urls and was doing it on my phone, so much easier to break it up.
    Thanks man! Still needs some more
