AE86 N2 (big update)
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 |

Get RCAs, youll notice the improved front grip instantly!
Youve got adjustable outer tie rods to space down too, so bonus! http://www.skynet.ie/~eireae86 |

A small update, while I'm not back at Portugal to work on the 86.
Fog lights Samco cooling hoses And my first endeavour in the composite material world The mission: to try to fabricate a flat sheet of carbon fibre to go ion the dashboard central console The gel coat: The fibre: Putting it together: Next day: Gotta say that the final result was really surprising and I'm really happy with the surface finish. Also, some pics of the Stack gauges I got, to replace my Defi style ones. Perfect mate with the carbon fibre Regards Luis Pinto 86'LEVIN Track Project |
