Re: turbocab's T2R replica build
Have ya had a ride of it yet?
I haven't touched my one basically since I got it
I think I have become a responsible adult,ten years ago I would have been fanging it around the streets with no helmet,now I am too worried about getting flogged by the cops

Re: Re: turbocab's T2R replica build
Haha Yeah I only just test-fitted it in the T2 today. I dont plan on riding it...got a bunch of younger Honda Club fans that can do all that. One day my daughter can fang it..she's only 2 currently tho. I'm slowly getting in touch with the Japanese City club guys, talking to one who's English is good via Facebook. Their 2015 meet is coming up.

Re: Re: turbocab's T2R replica build
Yeah & dont forget the time & expense of the hours on a Lathe fabricating a piece of steel bar to adapt the shock housing in, the rears are a real killer but fronts are straight forward so maybe just change the fronts to adjustables & use the Zoom springs for the rear as they go more than low enough & will save you the headache or money depending on if you do it yourself or not.
Re: Re: turbocab's T2R replica build
There's abit about lowering a T2 here : http://nzhondas.com/build-threads/10114 ... -a-24.html
He talks about getting 50mm + drop. I did get in touch with the guy ages ago asking how he did it, this was his reply :
' I used EB Civic front shocks, with EB lowering springs and a keeper coil! '

My gearbox finally went back together today after over a months wait for a bearing
May well have the car up and running next week if I get around to it

Re: Re: turbocab's T2R replica build
