    Hot Rod Power Tour is coming through TX. Anyone going?

    Nope that wasn't me at Cars & Coffee, I actually haven't ever been to one of those meets yet. A meet n greet is a great idea.

    Would like your opinion on a new exhaust cutout prototype.

    No one is debating whether drag cars run full exhaust or not. I just think it's odd you spent more $ on your banner than you did testing the product. Not trying to flame, I think it's a great idea, but I think the cart is being put before the horse here.

    Would like your opinion on a new exhaust cutout prototype.

    Wouldn't it be worth a few hundred bucks of dyno time to test your cut out and have data to back up your hypothesis? It seems like a nice piece, but until I see #s it is just a novel idea.

    My GN leans to the drivers side... Any ideas on how to fix it?

    I think they're ok, but I plan on replacing all wearable items while I have the front end taken apart.

    My GN leans to the drivers side... Any ideas on how to fix it?

    Thanks for all the replies. I'm going to order some springs today and once I get them installed I'll report back. (I'll also double check my measurements) In the mean time I've asked the wife to put on a couple hundred pounds so the car will sit level when we ride around.

    My GN leans to the drivers side... Any ideas on how to fix it?

    The suspension is completely stock aside from a set of bilstein shocks.

    My GN leans to the drivers side... Any ideas on how to fix it?

    The body mounts look like they're in good shape and may have been replaced. If the frame is lower to the ground on the left side, would that rule out the body mounts ?

    My GN leans to the drivers side... Any ideas on how to fix it?

    Somehow I knew there would be fat jokes after that post. Has anyone else encountered this and found a fix? (Don't say cut back on donuts and beer, I like them way too much)

    My GN leans to the drivers side... Any ideas on how to fix it?

    I've measured all four corners from the ground to the fender, and ground to the frame, and the drivers side is lower by almost 1/2" (front and rear) It is definitely noticeable... It's never been in a wreck as far as I know. Any ideas on how to fix it? Do I need to take it to a place that can...

    Single best Mod?

    Lots of great mods already listed in this thread, but I really like my aluminum GN reproduction wheels. The stockers were narrow, heavy, and starting to rust. Now I have 8"s all the way around and it gives it a nice stance.

    Hot Rod Power Tour is coming through TX. Anyone going?

    Sounds like there will be quite a few GNs there. If you see someone with the TX plates "1V8 KLR", that's me!

    Hot Rod Power Tour is coming through TX. Anyone going?

    I'm planning on joining the HRPT from Baytown to OKC and was wondering if anyone else is planning to bring their TR. It starts in Louisiana on June 11 and it stops in Baytown, Austin, Grand Prairie, OKC, and then continues on to KS.

    PSC remote reservoir mounting

    Ooooooh I remember those days back when I didn't have the PS whine. So what did it take to fix it? A new PS pump and reservoir?

    Power steering pump, where to buy one...dont want a cardone rebuild

    My pump developed a whine after the HB conversion. I swapped to a rebuilt pump, tried the snake oil PS fluid, and checked for leaks. It's annoying. I should have gone vacuum.

    Changing door speakers in concert series 86 T Type

    What's the difference between a quality 4 ohm speaker and a cheap 4 ohm speaker? None as far as your factory radio is concerned, because you will wind up with a 2 ohm load unless you change the wiring of the front speakers. The Kenwood door speakers installed in my car were the cause of the...

    Changing door speakers in concert series 86 T Type

    I believe the factory speakers were 10 ohm (not sure of the #, but it was fairly high) resistance. If you wire 2 10 ohm speakers in parallel you end up with 5 ohms of resistance. If you install aftermarket speakers that are most likely 4 ohm and wire them in parallel (which you would do if...

    Changing door speakers in concert series 86 T Type

    Did you know that the factory door and dash speakers are originally wired in parallel? If you just swap in some aftermarket speakers with the factory head unit still in place you will damage the radio. It will blow out one of the channels. That's why I have no sound on the right side of my car.
