Lower Tie Bar stage 2 pictures

Does anyone have pictures of a LTB II installed on their car? I'd like to see where it attaches and how much ground clearance is lost. thx

I think Irishj44 has pics on his cardomain. I don't see a problem unless you've got headers, or if your car is too low where you have to catwalk a speed bump.

So you're going auto-xing with me right?

I've considered joining the SCCA and trying it. There is an SCCA meet this weekend at Knights Castle in Ft Mill. I'll try to catch some of it.

I was going to go, but I have my cities tournaments from Thurs thru Sun. (Pool League) I have SCCA's schedule and plan to do most of the events this year. In a couple of weeks my car will be setup again to run. If you go, the guy in the Green Miata with rollbars and a big Number 47 on the side of his car is a buddy of mine I work with that got me into it. His name is Derek, tell him what's up and that you're a friend of mine. He knows all about the Maxima auto-x's

btw, this Sat I'm going to find sometime to get away from the tourney and go down and have matt take my pulley off, so I'll be in your area.....shooting for around noon. I'll give you a call and we can meet up so I can give you those bushings.

Thanks for the links. Josh's pictures are good, but I'm looking for more detail. Does anyone have pictures looking up from under the car? As if the car was on a lift. It sounds from the other thread that the installation can be a beyatch if you don't loosen a few nuts/bolts to give you more room.

You don't have to join the SCCA to autocross. You'll just pay a couple bucks more to race (err participate in the skilled timed event hehe). At least that's how it works in the AZ region.

Here's one of mine:


You can see where the front mounting points are. When you get under there it'll line up.

35 bucks here for non members. If I go to more than 5 events this year, I'll pay the 80 to be a member and get my tech inspection for the year 1 time.
