Not the fastest lap of the day, but fastest one I recorded. Went waaay wide on the first turn around.

Re: 4AGE Rally Tercel

congratulations! first place in modfied AWD, in a 35 year old econo box Tercel4wd! Nice work! it is really exciting to see that the lowly TErcel4wd can still be competitive against the newer and much more expensive cars. We all know it is a good car, but this is really proof that no one can really ...

Re: 4AGE Rally Tercel

I think all of the subarus in the first heat broke and didn't make it to the second heat. But I was ahead anyways ;) Having a durable car that can survive the course is definetely part of winning. And the toyotas haven't let us down yet! Fingers crossed.

Re: 4AGE Rally Tercel

I finally weighed the car. It came in at 1985 lb with half a tank of fuel. Over the last few months I built adjustable struts for the front with aw11 strut inserts and adjustable caster plates. I also added power steering and tuned the cam timing for a little more lower end power. (The engine is mak...

Re: 4AGE Rally Tercel

All the polycarbonate is in! I'll add sliders to the front windows eventually. I re-used the window seals for the front two sets. The fronts are riveted on at the base. For the twin wall stuff I used machine screws and washers to not crush the edge. Then threadlocked the nuts. I also sealed the open...

Re: Blue and grey interior plasic and trim

This is the stripey interior right? I'd love to get the passenger door panel from you...also either of the front seat cloth if you're selling them. Looks like an awesome build, please do tell us all about it. I ended up pulling the front door panels. Let me know if you are still interested and I'll...

That is reassuring. I'm hoping to weigh mine before the next race in a week or so. Hoping for sub 2000 LB.

Re: Lifts, Front spring and hat options

I used the standard spring rate equation for K, using my own measurements I took directly off the springs, and the standard elastic modulus for common steel (all steels are similar). https://base.imgix.net/files/base/ebm/machinedesign/image/2018/07/www_machinedesign_com_sites_machinedesign.com_file...
