    Of Tail lights and touch up paint

    Gonna have to replace a tail light assembly -- 6 panel, 240 sedan unit. I bought 2 new ones (L&R) from IPD 6-8 years ago. I'd like to go back to them, but the website shows the right side (the one I need) at $54 while the mirror image left side is $104. Any idea why the price discrepancy...

    82 242 Manual Window crank mechanism

    Over the past year or two, occasionally when I go to roll up the driver's side window in the car, it will get to a point where it becomes stiff and resists the force I'm putting into the crank. In the past, I simply roll it back down an inch or two past the resistance and then it rolls right up...

    Question about IPD 28mm drop bars

    In talking with a member here who's selling one of the old/original IPD 28mm drop bars for V6 cars (and V8), the pictures show what appears to be a deeper drop than the 25mm IPD drop bar currently on my car. In talking with BJ at IPD, he confirmed that some folks indicated contact between the...

    TRW/CAM vs. ZF Rack

    Bit of a mystery -- the 12 year old TRW/CAM rack in mine puked a few days ago. I'm replacing pump, hoses, outer tie rod ends and putting a reman rack in it. I pick up the rack and while at the store - I looked at the tie rod boots for a quick indication as to which type of rack it is. I...

    IPD Sport Springs - spring rates

    Anyone measured the rates on IPD's sport springs? Found a note on Dave Shannon's home page that mentions 170 lb/in on the fronts and 130 lb/in on the rear. And I have a message in to the folks at IPD. Mine are the older 'black' models - circa 2000/2001. Researching coil-over options and...

That is - 1) both plates below the stock, uncut tower and 2) the fixed plate below the cut tower and the adjustment plate above. Thanks in...

    Exterior Door Handles

    Any difference between the earlier 'chrome' exterior door pulls and later black pulls? Said another way - will the exterior door handles off an early 90's 244 go on my '82 242?

    Minor engine bay clean up

    After years of lots of wires showing across the top/back of the engine bay and deteriorated rubber/foam on the top part of the firewall I decided to see if I could clean things up a bit. This was sparked by changing out my fuel system -- and removing the filter from the top of the firewall...

    Rotary powered 242

    Maybe old news, but I just saw it for the first time -- this is one an RX7 forum. I searched around TB but couldn't find a thread or link. Guy is MAKING HIS OWN 4-rotor rotary - going in a fully fabbed frame/suspension/etc. being put under a 142 body. Fab is seriously amazing. Probably the...
