  1. The weakest part does not necessarily give, you forget the Gear ratio in the diff the length of the axle to the force in this train of thoughts. but i like the out of the box thinking with the IRS
  2. I have 265 on 17"on all corners now, and i like some meat on the tires for the classic look so ill keep it that way
  3. Nice progress!!! and indeed intresting way to route the fuel line !! Next time bring this to MSA
  4. With enough time and money and skills! Anything will fit in/on/to anything
  5. Why not super turboing it!! I showed it works ... eeehm not so good LOL
  6. LOL that 70 year old Dutchman happens to be my dad.. Tony is right.. Blow through is nice from a period correct point of view.. and well my dad being his age grew up with carbs and he likes and understand them.. He hates computers.. And is not tempted to floor the car from traffic light to traffic light, but has the 'jedi' mind power older people have to actually use the throttle dosed to reach a certain set speed... I say ITB's all the way and i still cry that i had to swap mine to a set of carbs to Tony te be legal in my raceclass. But efi gives you more control and more reliable control than (under boost) leaky and fumes spewing carbs. But yeah it does look impressive i give you that! However dont go box style source a decent HKS box
  7. Id say look closely at the csl airbox on a e46 m3 bmw...
  8. Impressive!!! and nice title lol... Dirty mind a joy forever
  9. Haha thats some nice dutch.. However lets be friendly to the host and latter part of the readers of this forum.. And make sure all can read it; 'Looks very good jack, I sure hope to run into it in the flesh some day!'
  10. Again line up 3 to 4 cars in an area drive around, look, buy, drive!
  11. Those are some nice wheels!! what are they ?
  12. There XXR 521 in 18 x10 still debating as the rims on there now can be widened (Split rims) Here are Some pics of last saturday. It is sitting fairly high but i turned up the coil overs for easy car lift acces for now. When the car is finished ill drop it 2" Im getting the vibe back since the BMW GTR is on track and needs less attention. The white BMW e30 is my buddy's track toy BTW
  13. I have a guy in holland who makes about the same, the timing pick up in the flywheel is indeed a nice stable method ill use in my engine build ( hall sensor)
  14. NICE item!! what is the ballpark price range for them?
  15. On my race car wich is fully built i hav eto loctide the bolts down to say in there intended place.. slicks or sticky tires do that to a rear subframe. But indeed welding in a cage or halfcage and seemwelding makes any car allot stiffer!
  16. I debating new wheels. I got a good offer on my current wheels and my Borbets.. I can literely do this with my wallet closed. How about these: In the sizes: 18x8.5 5x114.3 ET25 Gold 18x10 5x114.3 ET25 Gold
  17. Agreed.. people here do it due to the simple fact of availability
  18. I have seen that solved by machining the starter housing.. I think i have a pictures somewhere
  19. Fly out look at it.. Make a short list of cars you want to see, rent a car, drive by them. Pay and either drive or ship back ( cfr in paramount deals with my cars or containers). And in the process enjoy the weather see some fellow hybrid z guys! Really its the best way and would at max 600 to the cost (flying out and some spending cash)
  20. Nothing not to like in this! The guy is a true artist.. A crafstman of the old style molding and panel beating.. But only in his 30's. Actually the pictures dont do it justice.. The attention to detail in this is jawdropping. Its perfection.. Haha Jack is like a monk.. Haha see,s like woring on the car is meditating.
  21. As Mikelly Said .. I bought a Trans am for 1500 with 111K mile with a broken Optispark.. 6 Speed MT to.. that leaves you with 8500 USD to buy all the rest that is needed
  22. loctite means impact gun and some heat ....
  23. I was there ... and i did it before .. il never buy anything to restore that is not rom Socal!! why spend money on rust repairs when you can do it on goodies! Hell i even need to ship em out!
