Yup Ive seen that not to bad,nice flaking on the front bumper....mine best not do that !

Anway Im wondering about raising my engine? anyone have any info.
I cant drive my car up some drive ways,Some speedbumps,Its getting to a joke But I dont want to raise it !
Airbags are on the list but after winter.

lower it some more and stop your bitching.

kidding. you can get motor mount spacers for a little cash. you can also just use big washers and longer bolts (make sure they are the right strength). shortened pan/r32 sump and r32 pump give a little more clearance too.

Keep in mind raising the motor brings the axles closer to the chassis, and if youre low enough to be needing to do that, they are probably already notching themselves.

Ok interesting, I may try the long bolts,Shorten pan would be cool but sick of spending money on my car atm!

Thanks again sortofbigbj .
oh you fixed your car yet or what ? stop bitching & get it done .

im gathering parts from about 6 different places in the states as we speak will be back stronger then ever soon enough.


New motor mounts might get a little more clearance too, as the old ones have probably sagged a bit.
