I’ve been trying to cut down the you tube content… but I just can’t stop. Here is another classic. After watching this… I spent a long time searching for a 71. I guess proof… that anything can stir emotions if it’s sitting low on 9J Hayashi’s. Diving board bumpers or not.

It’s not really even a はちろく but…

I’m loving my old magazines. N2 over fenders seldom work IMO… but this Levin (also featured in AE86 club 6??) pulls it off well. I’m not entirely sure why… but it’s certain that scoop adds something. And I typically HATE scoops. Nothing really worth mentioning in the caption… at least nothing that you can’t figure out for yourself.

Well here is a better picture for those who aren't on forums where such things already exist. Not that it's really a GOOD picture... but whatever. The hood is up, and it is notable that perhaps the best thing that Paul did for me was throw spacers between the hood hinges and body, rather than between hood and hinge as I had. That allows the hood to open wide and stand straight up without support. Unfortunately this realization was found after a trip out onto the track without the hood pinned down. There are some minor damages there. I've been grinding pretty hard lately... but I did find time to make it out to the garage this morning and do some analyzing.

That’s Better

More negative camber is always good right? No... that's not entirely the point. I started into this issue a couple of years ago, but I was reminded of it again by the fact that the in-term owner of my swapped out my NRCA's for RCA's. Since I never really finished the thought last time... I'll take another stab it it. Gonna be quick and brief though.

You got yours? If you haven’t seen this video… you might be a diy newb. If you have seen this video… you might be a hack. If you already have your hashirya pipe… you might be my hero.
