Does anyone know what wheel base width I would end up with using an hr crossmember and wishbones, hq stubs and discs. Wheel offset unknown.
From what i've heard the hq stubs widen it a bit but i'm guessing that it will still be narrower than vp comm.

I'm trying to keep it narrow and compare it to a vp chassis that i saw fitted into an FE shell today.

I don't have one here to measure but the HQ rotor offset is about 25mm wider than a HR rotor.
The bare stubs themselves don't change the track. That is, you could put HR rotors on HQ stubs and the track would remain unchanged.
So if you have a HR front end with HQ stubs and HQ rotors, the track would be 50mm wider than a HR front end with HR stubs and HR rotors (this only remains valid if the same wheel offset is used on both front ends)
