im gunna go check my screws today....

im sure this has been asked somewhere but hopefully someone can give me a quick run down. Whats an average 14x7 wheel weigh? what effects does a lighter/heavier wheel have on performance etc? i can get 16lb wheels for 80 apiece or 22 pound for 56.. and 14x8s 18lbs and the other style ? probally 23

I'm gunna look into that, half the price of diamonds! I just can't decide if its worth doing zx struts yet, I know most people to it for brakes, but I could get some more dish with them, and I don't wanna buy wheels now if I do zx struts later, I could stagger do 7 in the front and 8 in the back I suppose...

So ive been thinking about wheels a lot lately, curious what your guys opinions are on some diamond racing steelies, powdercoated white, thinkin 14x7 meybe 8s with zx struts, and strecth the tires i have on them... ??? what do you guys think?

A few photos from formula drift today

ill probally take a set

While i was doing my wheel bearings and fixing that broken caliper today i took a couple pics of what you can see of the aero sport bags, hope it helps a little...

The interior pics i promised, (still working on the video/fancy pics lol) Probally doesnt look like much, but its clean, and all assembled finally and for the most part im content for now! And no, those arent the same seats shucks sells, there much higher quality and about 3 times the price and yes... i do need to vaccum haha

I thought i had pictures somewhere but apperently i was so excited when the bags finally showed up i didnt take any. Ill be sure to get some good pictures of the struts when i pull them out to shorten them again, it is pretty straight forward and pretty easy like you said

haha ill see what i can do ;) i have a lot photographer buddys!

karnutz i didnt see that until just now pm sent

bump, dont really want to pay for the complete wiper mechanism... if someone has just the spindle part or is willing to part out a mechanism let me know... If i dont get one in the next couple weeks ill have to settle for he whole thing..

Ive been focusing on my interior the last few days, its coming along pretty nicely, it feels so good to drive around in something all assembled with 50 percent less rattles and somewhat quieter witht he carpet, deadening, door cards, rear seats, trim, etc etc all installed, starting to look good to. Ill post up some pics tomorrow. the door cards were the first thing i had ever wrapped in vinyl, they look good but you can tell which one my dad did lol Tomorrow i need to focus on the engine bay and a couple little exterior things i want to get cleaned up. also test fitting some different wheels a buddy might let me borrow for the show, Friday will be a good bath, detail, vaccum etc and saturday hopefully itll be looking good enough for the showcase!

Damn i figured you had to be at least on coils! I love that car! Looking for a left brake caliper and part of the wiper mechanism. message me if you have one or the other! http://community.ratsun.net/topic/45171-510-left-brake-caliper/

Hey guys, like the title says i need a left side caliper for my 71 510. stock struts. The little sheet metal springy deal broke so my pads clunk around. shucks wanted 100 bucks and it was going to take a week, napa couldnt even find one, i know someone has one lying around! Preferably local ish so i can pick it up. message or 360 631 3898 Edit: Oh and i also need part of the windsheild wiper mechanism. the part that the wiper bolts to on the passenger side is stripped out. itll spin without anything on it but as soon as u put pressure on it it wont spin anymore!

Hmm other people have said that to, its worth checking into though, ive always just dropped em off no questions asked, never thought about if they were brands they sell or not.

les schwab does flat repair for free! or at least the one in stanwood does, they usually gotta be mounted though
