    drive shafts and cv joints

    Hew- Do these help? I assume you have the Audi gearbox? The inner bolts and the outer bolts are different - one is fine thread and one is coarse. You can see I drilled them for safety wire but have not yet installed them. Do you need lengths on the bolts?

    Rear suspension adjustment

    my upper trailing arms are about 28-1/4 inches long. This is using a tape measure with the little grabber not centered on the bolted joint, but to the end of the bolted joint (the one that connects to the chassis). My upper arms from chassis to upper hub face forward. I'll snap some pictures...

    Roaring Forties #52

    Dan, I did the 'hershal' modification. I got rid of the crap under the gearbox and just used the two uprights sitting on 1" thick rubber spacers. I cut and rebuilt the crossmember. All this screwed up the location of the muffler brackets, so I welded on tabs to the chassis and then fabricated...

    Mark, absolutely no idea on the mufflers, but they did come in Nissan boxes. Not sure if I trust that though. Would measurements help? Cliff, I live in The Woodlands, about an hour north. You're close to Simon, he lives in that general area, did the car you see have orange stripes?

    Roaring Forties #52

    Header pipes required a lot of cutting, shortening and lengthening before the collectors would fit. Then the collector needed to be cut off the muffler to get the mufflers to line up. Then new muffler brackets had to be built since I had lowered the transmission and fixed the pipes. Now I...

    Roaring Forties #52

    Finally made it out of the driveway for the first time. Up and down the street a couple of times. Clutch pedal is long, the brakes a bit long, my cooling fans don't run and the car bottoms over the end of the drive, but by God, it finally went somewhere!

    Memory tells me there should be a plug for the blue/black wires, but you don't have one?

    Fuse Panel

    Anybody know what the circled two pin connector goes to? It comes off the same multipin harness that drops to one cround connection, but for the life of me I can't see that this two pin connector attaches to anything.

    Build your own crossover headers

    Speaking of headers, here is what was supplied by RF. Having no experience with individual pipes, is this amount of seperation normal? In order to get them into the collector they really need some force to pull them in. I am concerned this may not be best for either the aluminum heads or the...

    I can't answer that, but I would love to hear from someone who knows more than I!

    Manifold Vacuum Fitting

    A little late here, and perhaps covered, but I didn't see it a quick review...here in America I was told we don't need the carbon canister, so the one fitting goes to the MAP, the other goes to the right hand rocker. One thing that is different on mine (I have the DC&O manifold) is that on the...

    Wiring harness questions for RHD RF cars

    I have a bunch of pictures now, but as you noted in your earlier post, it is very tight in there and not sure how helpful they will be. I got my car after yours, and as I said, no problems. My harness comes through the main cabin and splits into a large loom going to the left side with the...

    Wiring harness questions for RHD RF cars

    Sorry about the delay Mark, been working too much. Would it be any help if I were to scan the wiring instructions I received and made them available as a pdf? I'll also grab some pics and upload them tonight when I get home.

    Sill Stripes

    Anyplace that does vinyl graphics can make a set. I had mine made local, just make sure and tell them they are for paint and they'll use the right vinyl.

    Two Blondes

    Re: Equal Time Guy gets on a plane and finds himself seated next to a cute blonde. He immediately turns to her and makes his move. "You know," he says, "I've heard that flights will go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger. So let's talk." The blonde, who had just...
