Re: Bobs GTD

Ha Brian,
Yes the shocks are Spax and I'm going to change them out with Afco racing shocks if I can match spring rates and shock dimensions, and as far as the pedal box yes please send pics if you can and any specs you mite have.
Thanks,
Bob

I can't tell what kind of shocks and springs you have but I do agree that one of the best upgrades is to improve on the stock SPAX if you have them, dual rate springs are also a good idea. Lots of guys in the UK go over to the Koni, but they are quite expensive.

Regards the pedal box, I am using a triple cylinder Tilton hanging box with improved leverage and an adjustable bias bar, can send you pics if you'd like of the installation. As indicated by others, if you have the stock brakes, they are an easy upgrade, see my build thread for some ideas.

May want to investigate your clutch and upgrade to an AP Racing set up if you'll be using any horsepower above say 300 as the stock one will slip under "angry" use..

Best of luck, please post pics of your progress.

Brian
