Brand new. Just got it from Vision Motorsports. Never installed.

Raises roll center, corrects rear suspension geometry, separates toe from camber and makes for an easy rear alignment.

A must for a serious racer.

$1850 + shipping

LOL.. I knew it. They sold you on the independent rear. Might as well. You've gone this far.

It's like the damn crack pipe....


And... only because the rear of the car is already tube frame.

Where this goes over the edge is the horizontal pushrod/rocker shocks...

I was thinking that you should look at a Cayenne V8 power plant. They're cheap over there aren't they? Be nice to have it Porsche powered.

You might be able to lower the CG a little more, with one of those setups.

It's not about the cg... its about the unsprung weight.

That's down the road... either that or a Panamera turbo V8.

Hi Tony, looking at the geometry (raised outer pivot) I would have expected this to lower rear roll centre, not raise it? Or have I missed something?
