Next time I need to get through emissions, I'll be sure to do something like that Joe.
And yes Brett, you can copy that idea all you want. |
Alright, so at this point, it’s the beginning of November. Car’s running well – all is good. Scottsdale GoodGuys was a blast, and the following weekend was a track day on Firebird Main.

I could live with a little self-clearancing. Little did I know the outer rim would move almost 3/8”!! http://imageshack.us/a/img10/383/20121224134833.jpg So it was time to tear the front end apart again. http://imageshack.us/a/img541/508/20121224142523.jpg With some help from my good buddy Dale, we took a torch to the steering arms and bent them in roughly 3/8”. Ackerman is just a suggestion, right? http://imageshack.us/a/img210/8291/20130121200926.jpg With everything back together, there was a ton more clearance. Best part is that I can fit my 17’s again! http://imageshack.us/a/img703/7735/20130129195404.jpg This brings us up to the present day. I would say everything will be ready for RTTC at the end of the month, but that will just be jinxing myself. :) |
