Bullitt #2479 Build

[usafimj]

Yeah the 20s look great with the new springs but the springs and fooses aren't gonna cut it for performance. I need something different.

Any suggestions of springs?

How about the Cobra Jet springs

 

[GrnBullitt08]

I'll look into the cobra springs...I'm guessing they are made by FRPP?

all you need to know is that I have a friend with them and he's making quite a bit less power than I am (100 shot and no L/Ts and stock UCA and LCAs) and he just pulled off a retarded 11.59 in an auto. Those springs are incredible for drag racing, I'm buying a set and switching springs out the night before race days.

Ok so they are well worth the money then. Do they lower the car any? Or do they basically provide a stock stance.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

I'll order a set soon.

basically a stock stance... I say that with the sheer awesomeness of your car and build, get some 15s front and rear with a 28" meat out back and slap those CJ springs on it and scare the living piss out of every single car that pulls up next to you

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Yeah that's would be a sweet setup.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Just gotta see how much a set of big a little are gonna set me back first. Don't really have alot of $$$ to play with since th build.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

My only dilema is that I still want the car to sit a little lower.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

I should see what Matt is running with his N/A car. I like his setup.

Jegs = about $1100 mounted and balanced for a complete shipped set
Racestars = about $1500 mounted and balanced for a complete shipped set

Where you getting those prices at Antonio? You have links?

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Yes... Very true. Maybe there is a way for both.

the racestars are from BBR, tell them I referred you (Anthony) and speak to Chris. The Jegs are my guesstimation through a reputable wheel shop. Jegs wheels will run you close to $500 for rims and then $600 for tires, the Jegs may actually be closer to $1200 but shouldn't be more than that for a complete setup. I would personally go with the RaceStars, they're badass and light and have perfect fit, an 8" rim out back on a MT ET Street D/R 275/60/15 would fit perfectly out back, the 10" wide rim would poke out a little bit but on that one you could fit a 325/50/15

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Hmmmm... A 325/50 might be a little overkill... But I'm sure would look awesome. Would prob need wheels spacer for them.
