Great thread, looking forward to the finer details. Where did you get the brakes from?

I put the suspension on the front to see how the wheels were going to fit.

They look good but you've got about 90 degrees of camber, might affect your handling.

It's a little early to be setting up the suspension. I'm just seeing if everything fits and if the offsets are correct.

Remember the rear needs toe-in too. ....otherwise it will walk like a duck at speed.
If you ever need a hand on a saturday, I'll gladly work for free just to see your operation.

You're welcome anytime, I'm just down the road in Escondido. Today, massaging the original front bumper into an RSR bumper. I'm not a big fan of fiberglass.

If we must suggest colors, then Carmine, L80F
I'm biased, I have one
an '80's color, not common, completely different than Guards Red, L80K
But Porsche bringing it back on the late model GTS's

An RSR has to be a wild 70,s color ...Orange , greens , yellows ,or riviera , Miami blue ,something that screams 1970,s
