Hi Marc,

We use Schroth harnesses (exclusively) and they come with steel, threaded backing plates that are positioned under the car for this express purpose.

I am a Schroth distributor so if you need something, contact me directly and I'll be glad to help in any way I can.

Those of us who use Weiner and Rothsport for our work all too often don't express the "feeling" of knowing - and all too often don't express the knowledge and care which goes into the work our cars get.

There is a difference, in communication, in quality of workmanship and in the ultimate product. It's world class.

When you purchase a suspension from Steve, you get not only the minor stuff (i.e. the bits and pieces themselves), but a lifetime of knowledge and advice which lasts long after the purchase. It's this service and care which not only provides a superior product, but will also make you safer and faster on the track - and more comfortable on the street.

Later, we will share what we can about my spring rates, suspension setup and alignment (as well as the head work and tuning). Some will have to remain proprietary, but most will be shared.

But...what I recieve will not be what works for another. Having Steve makes this difference...he has spent countless hours with me discussing this work, my driving, my preferences in car handling...and has watched me grow into this car on the tracks we drive. The car is being built with all of this in mind.

Priceless - and I get a friend out of the deal also!

Kai (and poor little Claudia, who will soon be doing exactly what she was bred to do)

Thanks Steve - I have those plates but was not sure that was enough.

(Kai - sorry for the hijack).

Ahh, the Pumpkin rises from it's patch.

964 folks, this is Bob W., great guy, PCA Instructor out of K.C., and current keeper of the infamous "Pumpkin"...a (slightly modified) 930.

The car, with Bobby at the helm is, shall we say...fast.

Thanks Steve,

Just curious about your thoughts on the MCS. I guess I should give you a call.

The MCS website is nice, but doesn't really get into the details.

Curious about the shock shaft sizes,are the front struts inverted,what improvements over JRZ,Moton,ect.
