Give a quick outline of your plan. Nobody should worry about if their car is "nice" enough for that. The point of the thread is to share your journey (pain ) in building your car.

Days when you are all amped about something you bought and everyone at work and home just looks at you You post it on your thread to share with your other crazy car building friends.

Reading others threads can help you chart your way through your build and some day maybe your thread will do the same for somebody.

Case in point is your brakes. You want to do something that others aren't regularly doing. If you work it all out someone like you with the same idea can look up your thread someday for the how to.

Now Ron does loves his wheels but if he has a set to sell you would have to tub your car for them to fit.

Ford came up with the name for my build

Thanks Rob I will start a build thread for sure. Im not sure what rims I can use due to me wanting to run the brembo brakes but if a way to use them doesnt come up soon I am just going to use the ls style brakes I have already giving me more options for rims. Thanks alot Rob, the help and and support has been priceless!

Welcome to Don't get sucked in by what everyone else is doing. Build it for your intended use. Besides...cars like these are never really done.

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the help and support from you guys. You are 100% correct these cars are never done, I guess I should just prepare for that now then. I cant complain however, I love my car! I hope I have it a really long time.

Welcome to the site! I do have to ask though, what made you think we were a late model G35/M3 type of site? I've got to know.

Thanks, for the welcome! I think it was really the name more than anything. Maybe its me, lateral g seems like a ricer or import type think. Its a cool name tho, it just doesnt sound like a pro touring or resto-mod name.

That's because this site is mostly about pulling some "LATERAL-G's" Old school style

"G-force (with g from gravitational) is a measurement of acceleration felt as weight. It is not a force, but a force per unit mass and can be measured with an accelerometer. Since such a force is perceived as a weight, any g-force can be described as a "weight per unit mass" (see the synonym specific weight). The g-force acceleration acts as a multiplier of weight-like forces for every unit of an object's mass, and (save for certain electromagnetic force influences) is the cause of an object's acceleration in relation to free-fall.

This acceleration experienced by an object is due to the vector sum of non-gravitational forces acting on an object free to move. The accelerations that are not produced by gravity are termed proper accelerations, and it is only these that are measured in g-force units. They cause stresses and strains on objects. Because of these strains, large g-forces may be destructive".

Intro I smarter after that explanation, but thats kinda what I meant. I didnt think muscle cars required physics to that extent. All in all I am just happy I realized I was mistaken.
