A good friend of mine owns a professional metal shop and i was talkin to him about how our tc doesnt have anything out for it and he said that he would work with me on designing some suspension parts from t6061 aluminum.

So im posting it here to see what you guys would want to buy if we came up with some quality parts?

The list ive started on is:
Lower control arms
Lower tie bar(probably will not b made from aluminum)
A-arms

Pls feel free to post it up!

 

Adjustable rear upper control arms... we need to get someone to make something so we can adjust camber...

 

front and rear sway bar

 

I really want to have sway bars made. What millimeter demension would be a good stiff sway bar size( front and back)? And are sway bars made of aluminum?

 

^
The TRD ones are made of steel...not sure if all are made of steel though.

And definitely +1 on the rear upper control arms that Wellesley mentioned.

 

B-Pillar Bar
Enginge Damper

 

Unfortunately i do not think we can put a b pillar bar in our car bbecause there is srs curtain airbags. I was reading a couple days ago about other cars who couldnt install the bar without taking the airbags out. Id rather spend the next month or two getting a product out there for us to use that would nothing but a great (warranty safe) upgrade

 

Adjustable rear upper control arms would be a money maker!

 

I would say so, a lot of us want to fix the rear camber issue.

 

Ok so heres an update on my progress...

Currently almost done designing a professional grade rear tie bar. I figure its something that we hopefully feel some rigidness from for around 100$ and under. As soon as i get a prototype made then i promise to post pics asap! Then my next project will be the double adjustable rear upper control arms. Although ill probably have a rear tie bar by the first of the year, the rear upper control arms will take a few weeks to make a prototype. I know we all hate hearing the same old thing from companies that "o ya next year well have something out for the tc" but im part of the crowd that hates this so i will be as fast as i can to bring these to the table! Try to stay patent with me and my sources

 

Fantastic! What does a rear tie bar connect to? Is that different from sways?

 

Ya its way different. Sway bars reach front practically wheel to wheel whereas a rear tie bar is a strong yet (and as light as possible) aluminum bar which happens to be 15.5inches long and it adds support to the by tying the rear supports in the back end. I suck at explaining it but u can google rear tie bar for say an rsx and itll be clear where its station and what it helps stabalize

 

Adjustable rear upper control arms... mmmm.... Thats what I want...

 

^^ X2. The lack of this is the ONLY reason I am not lowered yet.

You cant multiply your own post Ted! It doesent count...

 

I dont care, we need adjustable rear upper control arms badly... lol

 

he can multiply with himself all he wants!
