Im bringing my FD this year instead of the Rx2, I need to get it tuned and might have some new wheels by then too.

djmtsu · 01-05-2011, 07:52 AM

Looks like I am going to have a TTT like madman build for DGRR this year.

Picking up something rather old school this weekend......

I guess I should mount and more permanently wire that thing, zip tie mounting isn't really my thing

I think I remember you telling me about that. Don't knock the zip ties just yet, let it grow on you. LOL

I'm not sure how much it would cost but I figure once they are made I could offer them to the forum too since I'm sure I'm not the only one needing them, and people could pick what thickness they want. And if I made the spacers they would look like crap, I'm kinda trying to get away from that these days.

Please elaborate, please let it be of the rotary variety, or maybe an old Datsun at least.

Maybe when I get my 19" WIDE rims and keep my 255 tires I'll start rocking the zipties

It's amazing what a file and some time will do to clean things up. Although, if you have access to a waterjet guy local, that's tits. *sigh* Todd is so far away, and I should probably get hopin' on those parts for the rear speed sensors.

WIN! I hope to see that @ DGRR, even if it's on a trailer

ledgebmx · 01-07-2011, 04:26 PM

Blew my engine 1/3/2011. I'll still be there just don't know what I'm going to do engine wise yet.

SPiN Racing · 01-14-2011, 11:23 AM

0. Reserve a hotel room. The cabin we wanted isnt NVNC's any longer.

1. Replace 4 of the tires on the Dually
2. replace front wheelbearings on Dually

3. Change rear on race car to 444.
4. Repair rust spot near decklid on race car.
5. sand/prime/repaint race car.

6. clean up and box up old school exotic 13B based race engine

7. touch up scratch on wife's RX8

Not too bad a list.

Still a lot to do.

djmtsu · 01-14-2011, 11:31 AM

I guess I need to basically start from the ground up. Make a car that hasn't been on the road since 2002 road worthy.

So with the Cosmo-
-check condition of engine (replace/rebuild as necessary)
-swap FB front spindles/struts
-swap FB brake master cylinder/booster
-rear wheel adapters
-wheels(??)
-RE-Speed TII front brake conversion
-reassemble interior
-finish body work/paint
-stereo install

Damn, I better get to work.

***TitaniumTT*** · 01-14-2011, 12:08 PM

So it looks we have a sucessor to the RedBull consumption King

***Herblenny*** · 01-14-2011, 02:21 PM

If everything goes well, I'll be unveiling a new look of my FD at DGRR7 (I'm going to call it that as its not 7th year running!).

Rotorypolo · 01-14-2011, 03:37 PM

new paint and bodyworks, new wheels and a few exterior cosmetic fun stuff for the Rx-3...hopefully
