Thread: 1999 Regal GS Turbo failure...

The main reason i bought the coilovers was for drag use. I hope they keep the ass end from dropping too far.

Preload the **** outta em

I like the build. It still bugs me that I sold off all my brand new l26 stuff rather then keep it and go turbo... But I'm quite happy with how everything came out. It's just the "what if" that bothers me

what if i had 250 more hp??????? hmmmmmmm lol you'd break more stuff, thats what would happen i think.

Yeah. I'm really sick and tired of pulling transmissions

I designed the Regal around easy transmission removal/overhaul.

I'm knocking on wood here but here's hoping the new trans setup holds together. At least long enough that we can make a 700 wheel dyno

It turns out the springs on my coilovers have been swapped so I have The 275# up front and 350# in The rear

Nevermind, im dumb. I had them backwards.

Duuuuur lol

So close but yet so far away. I probably should do an f-body brake swap too.

is it possible to be happy and sad at the same time?

I haven't had time to read though it yet, but I'm gonna be trying the swap whenever I need my rotors replaced (soonish).

Interesting read. So if that pans out i guess i will be using the impala brakes.

Just go the ctsv route.. Forget those tiny Fbody brakes
