Sounds like you don't need a rear sway bar. You need a front sway bar. Do you have one? Phil Ethier West Side Saint Paul Minnesota USA 1970 Lotus Europa 65/2597, 1992 Saturn SL2, 1993 Suburban, 1962
Speak for yourself. You are not speaking for autocross freaks. :-) Or unless your autocross eventmaster is a real sadist. Colin Chapman did this on some of his race cars, I think. It has to do with
I had the guy that did my install say that does not work as well as it used to. Something about the way they make tires now. He says he has his best results dry, and inflates and deflates several ti
eBay. Congrats. I hope it is all you expect and more. hope I suggest you do what I did when I bought our TR4 up from Texas in year 2000. Your trip looks about 650 miles long. Plan on taking two days
Same here. I had a pair of VW Quantum Syncro cars (same drivetrain, different suspension as the 4000 Quattro). When I sold them, the rattier of the two had a perfectly-operating original clutch setu

Since I got Susie the TR4, we have been holding up our end buy bringing it to the Back To The 50s in Saint Paul. The rest of the 10,000 cars will have to do without us in 2005, though, since the spo
Are you guys talking about the same car? I have seen several for the TR6, but I don't recall seing any for the TR4. Since the suspensions of these two cars are wildly different, we'd better be clear

Well, I was confused about that, seeing that the subject line was "Re: TR4 shock conversion". Which is why I am a bit mystified that there does not seem to be a version for sale. There are front and
The way I heard it: British = What colour are your tyres? American = What color are your tires? Canadian = What colour are your tires, eh? The answer to that question when I was looking at a Datsun
I use Fast Orange waterless handcleaner. (Smooth version. I don't want any abrasive stuff in it.) Making a preemptive strike with it seems to work. I wash my hands with it, getting it under my nails

Last year at the Back to the 50s, I saw a mid-30s car with signs on it that said "Please touch this car" and "Stand on the running boards". I think the guy just wanted to give the kids a break. Phil

I have been from Brattleboro to Bennington, up to Wilmington and back over the mountains through Dummerston and back to Brattleboro. Nice state. As nice as parts of Minnesota! Wish I'd had my TR4 in
