1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Ah gotcha, the uniballs are rebuildable right? And the toytec's aren't? I feel like I heard that as the negative for toytec coil overs

 

There good for budget. there pretty much billies 5100 with a better paint job and eibach 600 lbs coils. And yes the ucas are rebuildable. $125 I think for new uniballs but a good wipe and fresh grease would be enough for them since there a year old. There tough as hell.

 

Ah I see, maybe leave them for @Jamesboy2233 then, I already have 5100's and 881's so that probably wouldn't really gain me much, not for the money and trouble at least. If somebody gives me a set of kings or something though I'll gladly buy the UCA's off you

 

Not looking g forward to putting coilovers on the Z, have to reweld the lower arm to accept a coilovers cup. Gotta but a strut bar too

 

Weird way to orient the rad, but these cars are known for having an extremely low coefficient of drag and not overheating so I won't question it. It is a really clean rad for 31 years. Gonna put a champion 3 core in it that claims it is good for 650hp worth of heat dissipation

 

RX7 I got is similar, not as extreme but still at a weird angle. It's got a new aluminum rad too but idk the brand

 

Yeah the uca's are overkill for my setup lol. But everything I built or dois overkill cause rather use my truck up to 70% of it's capability at max. But that's just my opinion. Do I need LT not really but I'll have more use out of it then sas

 

I'm hopefully picking these up if the guy replies. I have a thing for old A/V gear.


Also, look at this damn thing.

 

the angle draws air in from below while driving. it probably gets more airflow than most modern cars.

 

Yeah I agree, I probably don't have any need for UCA's or coil overs, but it's still on the wish list

 

Previous owner of the RX said they can overheat though if they don't have the belly pan on them, because that's what directs air into it. Idk how much truth there is to that but it sounds plausible

 

LT means you can go have fun at silver lake in Michigan... SAS wont do well with the jumps.

 

its true. my friends rx7 always overheated until we put the belly pan on

 

hell some cars will overheat if you run them without the fan shroud

 

Straight axles can jump, it's just $$$$

 

My POS escort doesn't even have a fan right now, hasn't had a working one in a few years

 

oh they can.. but you better build it right and have alot of money. lol

 

Almost two full divided parts stacks of Z nuts and bolts. Labeling all this stuff is actually helping a lot. I didn't label shit when I rebuilt the taco and while I got it all right it took forever.

 

Sounds like a fun testing ground after some reinforcing lol

have to say ouch

 

I bet it landed just fine and kept on going. But it probably has 20k worth of suspension
