idid drop front axle about 8mm (weld spasers between body/axle)so little more room there aswell.. in weekend i hope i get to put engine on.

By doing this you just lost 8mm of lowering the car .
these effect the geometry.
i dont agry by using spacers .

i do have 35mm RCA on front =) so still on big plus.

those spacers help lot on roon in tunnel, and whit turbo the hood is quite close also.


STILL the engines oil pan dount SIT SO LOW.. it sit lower than front axle if you put it rest to axle and no spacers. Now i not need put it laying so low.

i would be a bit worried about you new alloy harmonic balancer as this will break your crank on the front
also if you go dry sump i have dry sump pans in stock to suit all 3sge motors in fwd or rwd

std harmonic balancer has rubber built into it to take harsh harmonics out of crank
yours is just a lightweight peice of alloy with no crank dampening built into it

If you mean the crank shaft pulley the std. was without rubber just a heavy steal one they also sell one alloy here it is http://www.fortyone.co.nz/parts/view/14023.html . i just make one by my self .
