Just realised this hasn't been updated in a while.
So here goes the summer report, now that I'm back in the UK rainy lake district, with no 86 to drive around the great twisty roads the Brits have up here. Exhaust sorted out. Reused most of the exhaust pipe, added a flexible section and a new mufler. It't quiet now and "safe" to drive without drawing so much attention. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And I took the chance to get some better snapshots of the new suspension. ![]() ![]() The "co-driver" bucket seat found its way into the cockpit ![]() ![]() ![]() It stays higher due to the base adjuster rails. Mine is simply fixed in the floor set up to my "leg lenght". I guess the nordish guys would't apreciate it that much ![]() After a couple hundred kms in the car, the new suspension was solid and relieable, appart for some harmonic ressonance of the rear trailing arms when at a certain speed and drive train load. It's to be expected when you have no compliance whatsoever in the suspension links. And a great day among friends, some competition and lots of great fun! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The driving feel is fantastic, direct and purely addictive! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Also decided to take car of the faded taillights. After a long "wax on, wax off" session the result wa rewarding... Before ![]() ![]() and after ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Regards Luis Pinto 86'LEVIN Track Project |
