they are more for the autox crowd but if you want one they are not hard to make. but still kinda a waste of time.

hanger brackets for wood decking, it has already been done.

its done on rx7's a lot.

the difference is 100% noticeable.

[jagojon3]

Maybe because RX7s suck

Maybe because RX7s suck

so do Honda's

If I ever find the link on how to make a cheap home made unit every Honda I own will get one, except maybe the CRX, it already has an awesome pedal, but the car is rear biased for autox.

Yeah, you have to be careful trailbraking into a corner or you WILL be looking at where you wee coming from QUICKLY!

[ktown powder coating]

it's done on first gen MR2 all the time too, you can see the firewall flex when you push on the brakes.

I have been thinking about making one of those for quite a while now. Maybe one day.

For how nice that golden eagle part is, that price is pretty damn cheap. I could still make one for less though

I made one a while back, couldn't really tell a difference so I took the shit out.  I always thought they were kinda stupid, especially the people that spend like $300+ on the spoon ones lol

It was one of Slater's 1001 writeups in 1997.  Might have been ceas, IDK, he just posted a lot and drove a stock CX IIRC.  He (whichever one) took two 90 degree shelf hangers and butted them against each other on the shock tower, then passed threaded rod/bolt through them and tightened it into the nose of the master cylinder.  Secured it with locknuts.  Sweet perfection.

I'm glad the RX7 guys copied our idea, since the Honda crowd has lost interest in DIY.

wasn't Greg/Slater, but it was a MIA Hybrid member.

Kyle drove the 5g CX

JD, you're getting old, old memories are coming back.

Wow,  somebody put a real motor in that RX-7.

Wonder why? ;D

Kyle drove the 5g CX

Nope, ceas bought that 99 CX because it was cheap, and then couldn't do much to it with a car payment.

[7808]

must not of been cheapenough if there was a payment lol

But MerrBear dropped her ITR swap into a CX with rewiring from Ceas.
