interesting find ray. there was enough info in that first vid that anyone with enough mechanical know how can come up with their own version.

 

That's what I'm thinking. We can use Donnie or Billy for a test pilot.

You might have to con one of the FC guys into being the test pilot. You'll never get Donnie or Billy in that thing. Did you see the look on that kids face when they were pulling him out of the water - priceless?

 

Actually, under the right circumstances I would totally do that. Could be the grand finale at Crit's lake meet.

I would love to get my hands on one of the military grade ones!

 

im joining you guys now, picking up my first classic rotary




what you guys think?

 

Now we're talking. Very pretty! I love the color and the OCD looks like it's working pretty well, may need a slight adjustment.

 

Hello everyone, I am looking for a side-draft carb for the FC. If any of you know of a Weber,Mikuni,or Del'orto please let me know. Thanks OGTA.

Dave

 

Oh yeah, nice looking FB and you don't too many in that color.

 

You know your a rotor head when you would pick the E shaft over the girl.

 

The awsome part is that it came with a set of JDM savanah fender mirrors. hmmmm That is something that I would love to actually see on the car. maybe a eairly sunday installation..... will keep everyone posted.

 

Alex, I think the E shaft lost that competition.

 

anyone know how to adjust the sunroof after swapping in a glass roof? it doesnt seem to seal all the way

 

Ray, You're crazy.



You shouldn't have to adjust anything. I switch mine often and its a drop in and go thing. I wonder if you have the wrong sunroof? idk?

I cant wait till it gets warmer so i dont have to worry about a sunroof at all

 

Thanks Alex!

Andre, Alex is right about the glass roof fitment, it should fit right in just like the metal roof.

Check your front tabs to be sure they are in good shape. If they are bent they might not be holding the roof down tight. You might want to put a thin coating of grease on the tabs so they slip into the slots easier.

Also be sure the slots are clean, with no dirt or leaves and stuff that might be obstructing the tabs.

Is the rubber seal still in good shape? I have a couple extra of these if you need one.

Nice move on the glass roof, I really like the open air feeling, without the rain on your head.

 

This on CL for you FD guys- it's got RacingBeat stamped on it and the guy only wants $50.

right....think i will stick with the r1 spoiler for now

 

Well regardless, a $265 wing for $50 on CL (that you don't have to pay shipping for) sounds like a good deal. If I had more spare cash I'd try to turn it over for some profit...

 

you know what, I realized that I had the plate backwards. I had to change the crank out because mine was broken, and when I installed the new one, I had the plate wrong. lol guess im a newbie when it comes to 1st gen's.

 

Thats what i was thinking

Anyone interested in a what looks like a nice 1st gen project car? Someone should save this one.

 

At $900 it's worth the parts alone for people who like whale tails, Targa tops and over sized wheels:



Bet it doesn't last long.

 

that ad is now deleted. but i saw it yesterday. it's not a whale tail, it's the wrap around spoiler that some came with. not sure if it was a dealer add on or if it actually came from the factory but i've seen them alot. probably did sell quick.

 

Most likely Mike S bought it, he was lusting over that red interior.

 

I got lucky on this one. The car was sold by the time I got to the seller. It's a good thing. I am afraid this would have come down to the car or Michelle. I really would have missed Michelle.

Now back to work on The Blue One. I am having real delusions of grandeur of what this car can look like for the Mitty. I want to kick some sand in the face of those Datsun guys this year.

 

I have that exact spoiler for my car. Its the one that wraps the whole way around. from what I remember, it's A JDM only spoiler but i could be wrong. My spoiler is in the body shop getting a new coat of blact paint, and the antenna hole sealed up. Im putting a shark fin antenna on the top at the rear of the car. still getting a clunking in the rear of my car and the vibration. the exaust is the clunking I belive, and the vibrating sam belives it could be the rear drums so....... Im tearing them apart tomorrow to inspect. Any opinions?
