Not sure mate, don't have tacho hooked up yet.

I'd guess from 2k - 3.5k

3rd video is taking off in second, 3rd 4th, then back to 3rd around the corner

All barely accelerating

Needs longer gears. Would make it easier to launch, and less squirrley.

How big are the videos? If they're less than 20mb, I can put them on my webspace.

^^^^^^

You are inspiring me and my plans for my '85.

Are you running the 9.0:1 rotors or have you changed them?

Great videos! I love the sound of your 7!

Good to hear Putting a 20B into a first gen is the best thing you can ever do I reckon

Running stock 20B low comp rotors, still has heaps of power.

Will be going turbo soon I think. The car is pretty loud, although sounds awesome. Not going to go over the top with a turbo, want something that is pretty tractable for the street. Going turbo will quieten it down a little too.
