Jelly of your brake set up.....whatever the fuck that is!

Does your '74 have A-arm lower control arms (like my Comso), or the single arms with tension rods like a first gen?

Johnny_K · 03-24-2017, 03:11 PM

yea that brake setup looks too legit to quit...

reddozen · 03-24-2017, 03:44 PM

I'm excited to see that RX4

Thx fellas, it Aerospace Components brakes and Wilwood MC.
Brakes feel great but wish I had a R&P steering to go along with them. It's on my list of things to do.

I've been debating starting to tear my car down for a full build and paint but alas.... i has no monies.

djmtsu · 03-27-2017, 09:07 AM

I don't think you need any teardown, just some serious diag on what is causing it not to idle. Can always do a compression test to be sure.

I am having my own issues right now, that best case scenario will cost $40. Worst case, engine out.

Johnny_K · 03-27-2017, 01:23 PM

^ what is the $40 fix?

New gauge / sending unit.

Looking like this year will be much bigger than last year. So far 155 cars this year and last year was 133. Plus theres 29 days to go!

It would be interesting to see the year by year attendance of people and cars since it started. I know the current web page is showing 2017 and 2016.

estevan62274 · 03-28-2017, 04:21 PM

^Thats funny you mention this, I finally stop procrastinating and registered today.

reddozen · 03-28-2017, 04:31 PM

yea, I don't really have the data from the old site. I changed how all the tables worked with the update so nothing is compatible. Biggest year was about 360 people.

t_g_farrell · 03-29-2017, 07:21 AM

Too bad. Most interested in the count and variety of cars. Can't wait!

The old version lumped everything that wasn't an RX7 or RX8 into "old school" so still wouldn't help a lot.
