Custom SFC update Car went in the shop today
Alright so I brought the car into the shop today to get the work started on the SFCs. Talked with the guy a while on my ideas and he actually came up with an even better idea on how to make the bolt connections at the tabs better using a box technique and square tubing. Basically the square tubing is going to slide into a box and its going to be cross bolted with 2 bolts. In addition there will be 2 additional lateral supports on the stage 2 bolted in part. Good news is that this will probably be way over designed cause I've been thinkin about it way too much. Bad news is that this extra fabrication is raising the price... I am sure if someone just wanted the stage one tubes that ran the length of the frame rails that this job would be cheap and easy but I am getting a WHOLE lot more done. Plus this is chomoly tubing

i believe they are sub frame connectors. Alot of auto-x cars have companies that make them specific for cars, but since the max is not really your average auto-x car, they are being custom made.
Think its suppose to stiffen the entire chasis quite a bit. But this is where irish or sciff are going to have to step in.
