[VXT Tim]

Are you really going racing next year in this Joe?

Why not ay

No worthwhile reason I can think of really !

[The Batman]

Maybe I should keep my pictures to myself Mr Tim, it seems a shame not to race it when it is all prepped for racing!

[VXT Tim]

I know Joe it's a problem I have with trying to keep them clean and not driving them.

[chris_uk]

what id do tho is weld a nut to the top/inside frame and then put a nut under it so if i want to lower it i can undo the lower nut then screw the bolt up until im happy with the height.. easier way to lower it for track days etc.

[The Batman]

Does that mean you are going to use heavy box steel? All I need to do is undo the bolt or do it up for higher or lower no nut fathing needed

[The Batman]

Here is a photo of the rear spoiler subframe mounts

Firstly it's not the cheapest but it works with what I had lying around and what I could blag!!!



I had the galvi steel bent to the exact correct thickness for the eliseparts Motorsport spoiler. If you have this then I have some spare I can sell you. Then all that is needed to do is drill where you need the holes and bolt through to the eliseparts spoiler mounts.

Subframe wise these will bolt through using the existing exhaust heatshield rivnuts.

You then need to cut a straight line for them to poke through the boot. The eliseparts spoiler with mounts will then come through the boot and bolt to this plate.

Hope you like!

too big and heavy, get them cut down.

[The Batman]

Both weigh a total of 1.25kg which is hardly alot plus they will work unlike some

yea your right.. yours will work 0.00349584675961% better than mine will.

[The Batman]

Mine will work 100% better as my spoiler won't move without moving the subframe with it! Unlike yours which moves then you push harder and the clam moves etc etc But let's not get into a willy waving competition as I will win that aswell

[LY_Scott]

Joe, I hate you That is all. PS looks awesome.

[vocky]

Then made some additional cuts to the rear clam should aid in helping remove the rear clam quicker ad the splitter will no longer be attacked to the clam also maybe vent heat better!

Then made a bracket to bolt the diffuser to (don't worry this is definitely coming off tomorrow and being sprayed black!!!!!

now where have I seen that mod on a vx before

[The Batman]

you took your time you are getting too old for this game oh and i modified the design to be better

Joe, That's a Gay looking small rear box.....Did you decide not to go for the Man sized one?

[Winstar]

Mine will work 100% better as my spoiler won't move without moving the subframe with it! Unlike yours which moves then you push harder and the clam moves etc etc

But let's not get into a willy waving competition as I will win that aswell

if I'm being picky all the force from the wing will eventually be reacted to the wheels, although we won't mention cracking the clmm due to not being designed to take any load

Joe has brackets to the subframe from his wing to avoid this.
