Looks great from here! Definitely excited to see how it will work out for you.

🤣 I'm not familiar with the CSNY version. I will be today though! Not real like the fact that the plane disintegrated at nearly 8000 MPH and Maverick survived. Vaguely familiar with the SR-71 replacement project. Black and gray would definitely look military, and aggressive.

Great stuff!! Darkstar. being a bit of a dead head, I dig it.

This style spacer is what I use. Not the exact spacer. I have no idea where I bought them way back when. https://wheeladaptersusa.com/products/5450-5450aw1?variant=47087645458721&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwhb60BhClARIsABGGtw9kOUVBIWVJTPGyLlQHQQKuEvmAxFqSSe0NTdSatdHqyREMUoBDbAoaAqtxEALw_wcB

I have been looking for wheels to fit for a LONG time that aren't custom 3 piece. probably 10 years ago now I settled on a set of mustang knock offs. 17x10.5 rear 17x9 front. Both with +26 offset. I used a 25mm spacer in the rear and a 15mm in the front. I was also nervous about spacers for track use. Hub centric rings were also added. So far so good! I don't love them. It allows me to run the tires I want, but man are these things HEAVY Here are the rears I run. These are available in many sizes. https://www.americanmuscle.com/mustang-2003-cobra-style-chrome-wheel-17x105-rear-only-28119.html

Yeah ... the vacuum actuated everything was unfortunately kind of standard for the time though. With a little ingenuity and a LOT of time you could definitely swap in solenoids. Probably not worth the amount of time it would take to spec it all out, fabricate, then trial and error until it is working though.

At least this shows a bunch of us are indeed still around here! Best part of this thread is seeing some of you posting again. HELLO ALL! 🙂 I agree that FB has it's place. Just not for the real issues and expect quality answers from decent humans. I have told 100 people on FB to come here and look through sections. I doubt if 5 of them followed my advice. Everyone seems to want to be spoon fed instead of do a little research themselves.

No idea, but that's what it told me. So I resized to that spec

Stormfront has a nice ring to it and also plays on the turbo whistle. Apparently I need to get more creative. Maybe I'll come up with a name for the Valencia car one day. My Starion was given the name Christine by an ex shortly after purchase because she was sure it had a mind of it's own and wanted to kill her. Mostly due to the trashed steering box, but a little to do with how I drove it too 😄

Oof ... image quality is no good at 32k. Looks like I'll have to play around with that. Drag and drop does indeed work though

Go figure. The most active post in years is about site activity. We have voiced donating to the site many times over the years. I fear at this point Bob (Ryddler) just isn't into it anymore, yet doesn't want to release the reigns. The hayday of this site was a glorious thing! If only we had 25% of that back. I post on the FB once in a while and try to help out, but it's sometimes too little among the sea of ignorance and keyboard mechanics. I think a lot of people go there just for more traffic. I'm definitely guilty of posting a pic with a quick question to try and get a quick response. I use imageshack for pics, so I haven't tried the drag and drop with the new setup. LOVE LIVE THE FORUMS!

What do you mean you don't have EXACT radius numbers?? I suppose it's easy enough to math that 😄

That will be just fine

Excellent work on the drawing! That could come in handy. Saving now

My vote goes to the relay. Jimmy, great info!! See you in a few days 😎
