      whoa. i was looking at a smaller EFR turbo. my current turbo is in between a 7067 and a 7670 I was looking to step down to the smaller turbo and get some of the spool & driveability back.
      I've lost the urge to shoot for high power numbers. i want something spunky and reliable

          from what I understand there is frame b1 and b2, you can interchange any parts as long as it is the same frame.

            Its hard to make a 323 "look cool" but no, i've been back in college full time so the majority of my time & funds have been allocated elsewhere
            It still needs minor bodywork & a real paintjob.

            as far as the synapse, there's definite room for improvement.

              What are you studying?
              P. S. I like the 5 lug big brake swap ... I'll need to look you up when I get to that point. Better brakes are a must

                  no hate, just curious and this thread is super long. also I disagree, I think you'd be able to make one look pretty rad with some simple mods- coils, cool wheels, GTX front bumper with a lip, some of those Feed-style sideskirts, and GTR hood vents and hatch wings...

                  are you using the standard Synapse flange or one of the adapters?

                    i have the 2 hole interplay style front bumper(stock rear bumper)
                    5 lug with borebet BS 15x7 wheels- i do have GTX sideskirts & a rear upper wing- but along with my foglight grill, none of that has been installed.
                    I am rocking the GTR vents too.

                    its the standard flange system for the synapse DV which is a ****ing fail.

                      sounds like you're most of the way there, then (with the possible exception of the wheels- but hey, not my car)

                      too bad, if it were something like a Greddy two-bolt I'd just suggest swapping to a different BOV

                          If anything they'd probably help with bump steer a bit as the mounting point (in relation to geometry) looks lower.

                            They definitely improved the bumpsteer. its about 50% improved. I need to learn more about proper strut valving. & determine if i need to redo the struts themselves. At the moment im looking at 2.5" progressive springs to try and calm/tame down the front end a bit more.

                            ~ 5mm lower and ~12mm further out.
                            The spindles themselves increased my camber and caster 1 full degree over running the GD spindles

                              Do the mx3 control arms get you any extra caster or only width/camber?

                              Comment


                                im sure they add camber, caster I wouldn't think so + 15mm outwards at the balljoint definitely makes a change in camber.
