Do you have an idea of whether or not they decided to upgrade the suspension/braking at all?

[tom4bren]

They are planning on retaining OEM suspension & braking.

wouldnt have to worry about the rear view mirror being a blind spot anymore!

Heck... why not just cover all the windows, set up some cameras around the front, side, and rear, and just use a projector to display everything on the inside of the windshield? That has always been a dream of mine... the super not-so-stealth destroyer.

They had those in some vampire movie. If I can ever remember which one, I'll post it.

It was Daybreakers

It was Daybreakers

Yes it were. Glad your rememory is better-n mine. Would't it have been sweet if they'd done it with a VX??? Rekin not though since they shot it all to hell.

Suspension and Brakes are going to be minor upgrades to Rancho shocks, stronger torsion bars cranked up, and Drilled/Slotted rotors and cermaic brake pads, possibly the steel braided lines. Being that this will eventually be shipped overseas, we want to keep the parts accessible to the customer if they ever have a problem.

So - do you think the next one (and you KNOW they'll be a "next one"!) will be "easier" having done this one?

Along the lines of this question: - once this swap is done, what was the total amount of man-hours taken on this project and what was the total cost of this project?

[H3_VX]

Just out of curiosity, what country is the VX being shipped to upon completion?

[AutoPros]

Just an update, one of our techs had to go out for surgery last month, so progress and updates will resum next week!

[AutoPros]

Final Assembly has begun. Pictures coming soon!

[HeckaTrebeka]

[evillecutter]
