Hey Magnus -

What front and rear torsion bar sizes do you use on your street vehicles as a standard? Your cars all have an amazing stance to them! I have a 72' Targa that I'm looking to tighten up and lower for occasional DE use. Thanks as always for the info!

Thanks for posting all this stuff, Magnus! It's really impressive. I can't wait to see the flick!!

Man, I don't mean to jump to conclusions, but it's nice to see someone on the boards that seems to share some of my taste with regards to music... I'm under the impression that you might be an avid heavy fan.

Ain't nothing like cruising in the Carrera 3.2 with some Opeth tracks playing (not too loud... gotta hear that glorious engine in the back... but sometimes I blast it a little hehe). However, most of the times the only "music" I play is the sound of the engine of course...

Keep us posted!!!

a couple of quick Answers..

1-TORSION BAR SIZE

i like my cars to be on the stiffer side

depending on the car SWB or LWB

I LIKE THE FOLLOWING SET UPS

A -22-28 MM T-BAR
B-22-30 MM
C 23-31 MM

all depends on final purpose & level of ride quality you can live with

2-MUSIC..

grew up a headbanger into Heavy metal.

mellowed slightly into hard rock -outlaw country-

currently NOT listening to much music...

NO STERO WORKING IN ANY CAR......

WELL THE execption is my just finished 66 sunroof 911!!!

Thanks for the info! I prefer a stiffer ride myself, but I've got a targa with no rollbar or cage mounted. Do you think your B, and C preferences will be too stiff for the chassis?

Thanks,
Sanford

[magnus walker]

never had a TARGA.

probably go on the lighter 22-28 mm side.

all the best

I took your nice picture to photoshop and adjusted the perspective and barrel distortion so there isn't any, upped the staturation a little, burned in the sky, and sharpened it until low rez jpeg artifacts started ruining it.

Sometimes lense distortion looks good, it's really subjective and you may like the origonal with it better.

So for the fun of it...
