switching it to rear disc?

 

yup, I don't like my drums, they're annoying to work on.

 

i don't blame you. what hubs are you using?

 

they're from a Japanese AE92 levin, but they're the same as the GTS ones.

 

remember, you're talking to the former Corolla nerd. i know the chassis.

 

I know , I was just clarifying that the brakes themselves are the same as the rear discs the GTS have and not some weird Japanese only rear discs so I can actually find replacement pads and stuff for them... which is always nice.

 

ahh, understood. they did the same thing for the AE110 chassis here...i just can't think of the corresponding US chassis number.

see what happens when i leave toyotaland for more than a year? memory goes to ****.

 

ya im a toyota freak too, but i havnt been in it for awhile sigh, i miss my all-trac ::cries in a corner:: I still have my 90 gt-s celica, just has a blown motor, i had sold it to my best friend and he blew the motor twice and never finished paying me for it and gave the car back to me. So here she sits for now with a nice paint job 2 years old or so. Sigh.

I ******* HATE finding Japanese only ****.

I had to have overnight parts from Japan shipped for my old Civic. It sucked ***.

 

It's a good thing you don't live your life a quarter mile at a time.

 

im not from MD but ill be there for hin does anyone wana go wit me ill be there for the red sox game as well

 

Granny shifting and not double clutching like you should

 

Yup. I had a MAD JDM thermostat housing on that thing. I put way too much torque on the old one and snapped the bolts clean off. (Previous mechanic didn't use anti-seize.)

Not too many 4wd Civics around the states, so I had to get a NOS (NAWS!) part outta warehouse.

 

I met some of you guys at the fudds meet. I think I sat next to Ken. Anyway whats up with the MD bbq. Just modified show cars or anythimg ? Also I love the rear corolla drum brakes. Their easier to service than just about any other drum setup

 

Any RX7 or rotary-powered vehicle, as well as the standard musclecar.

 

Pshh, I got a $10 tool that makes drum brake work a simple task!

The first car I ever bought had four-wheel drums!

 

Drum brakes FTL...

Although I don't mind working on them, I prefer disk brakes much more.

My new truck has drum and disk on the rear.

 

I never lost anyone, so I can sleep at night

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not shoot,

The courage to shoot the things I can,

and the wisdom to hide the bodies.

 

SO...

Anyone up for a meet this month? Next month?

Ken

 

I really want one of my 7's on the road for one of these meets. My 10th ae is having the body work done and my fd is being rebuilt by GoodfellaFDS Can wait to have any one of them on the road hopefully by the end of march my fd is done.

 

I'm up for a meet whenever

I missed the last one because I ended up at the dc auto show...

as long as it's not this weekend, I can probably make it. I'm going skiing this weekend

 

How about Sunday 3/2?
