Im using a coupla grand worth of bilstein and DMS suspender hardware. Toyota inner cv's arent up to the task so I'm going with some fancy stuff from A1CVtech in canada. The porsche stuff prolly works but i don't wanna take any chances with streetbased stuff seeing how we broke 3 miles into stage 1...'90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
'90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.

After alot of contemplating. Finally bit the bullet and raised the car. I grabbed the stock springs off of highbody and installed them on the s/r struts he put on the car. That alone was 1.5" height increase. Then i went to lowes and bought 3/8" box steel and 1/8 flat stock and fabbed up some 1.5" strut spacers. The car feels a bit bouncy but i have just over 7" clearance at the subframe cross brace. That is with undersized tires, i just ordered some 27x8.5x14 general grabber at2 tires for it hopefully they will be on this weekend.
Hopefully with the new tires i wont get stuck n the mud again. Atomic has some pics and vids from this past weekend, maybe he'll post them up.
Future plan is to grab a set of strut inserts and coilover springs and make a set of rally style coilovers.1995 escort wagon gtr/holset

Yeah i had to pull the carpet out this morning and vacuum about a half inch of water off the floor. I give 0 sh*ts about having a carpet so no big deal. Also i brought it through emissins today covered in mud. All the techs were taking pics of it. Took about a hour to get it done, normally it take about 20 minutes lol.
So here is the tally,
Lifting car= pass
Going through emissions=pass
Becoming talk of the shop=pass
Getting stuck in the mud hole=fail
Buying new mud tires =pass
This project is full of win!1995 escort wagon gtr/holset

They are 14x6 also.
ive been thinking about it i may need to switch to a coilover in the front to keep the tire from hitting the strut. I guess we will see tomorrow when the tires show up1995 escort wagon gtr/holset
