Also, for anyone interested in seeing the car at All Japan Day, it will be parked in the IPRA display.

Re: 1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

So.. Where do I start? We checked the fuel tank, put some clean 100 in, tried to start it, found out the fuel pump was fucked. So we replaced the fuel pump. Then we hooked up the oil compressor tank thingy (doesn't have a name cause dad made it) to the block to give it some oil pressure and it split...

Re: 1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

Those replies were written 4 years ago and to be honest, I'm unsure on the technical aspects now, and also unsure if the rules have been changed. We will definitely be looking into it before we start getting serious with the car, but there's no point worrying about it now. We just want to get the ca...

Re: 1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

Sounds good!

With any luck, or maybe with some pre-organisation. We can park together haha. I'll need to unload off the trailer though.

Re: 1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

In a big way! haha. I bought a Skyline to kind of keep my "going fast" bug in check and got a little bit carried away and Dad had alot of work going on and then before we knew it, 4 years had passed haha. But it's coming down from the hoist on Sunday to test fit the front bar properly (nee...

Re: 1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

Well after nearly 4 years of nothing, the car is finally coming down from the hoist. I've started making the plug for the mould for the front bar, which will be made out of Carbon-Kevlar with ceramic inserts in the front lip for rigidity. Plans for a Velo Apex seat to go in are being tested this wee...

Re: Lancer LA/LB 2 door Owners Register.......

I'm in SA and own a track-spec LA 2 door Lancer if that helps. :)

There's a thread floating here somewhere, but hasn't been updated in a year due to other commitments.

Re: SA STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS Nov.2012

There's 5 rounds a year.

Hopefully my LA Lancer will be out joining these two in the next year or two. But I'm always around at the events, mainly helping my friend in the Toyota Levin.

Re: 1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

Dad told me he'd sold them with his old racing galant to a friend. Sorry bout that.

Re: 1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

Still not 100% sure what you mean because the fuel tank is rectangular, and there are bars both sides... But the on that appears "under" the fuel tank, is a rear anti-roll bar. Was that old LA lancer blue? He remembers seeing a blue one out at the track one day, doesn't know any engine spe...

Re: 1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

Unfortunately, Some of it might be going, Someone had a bitch about it being unfair that people can make stuff and others can't, so a decent amount on the car is actually illegal as it stands. :(

Re: 1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

No turbo plans as of yet, but it's being debated because (on paper) this car won't be as competitive as first thought Dad did make a Custom throttle body and Fuel Injection set-up, Gunna run it in with the 48 DCOEs and then compare with the EFI. Can't say atm, We havn't worked it all out yet. Probab...

1971 LA Lancer Coupe Race Car

Well, a few years ago Dad bought a 1973 Galant and started racing, But then he wanted a lighter car. He picked up a rust-bucket LA Lancer and over 4 years of week-end work turned it into what's in the pics.(No build pic's as I only took the one's here today and it's on the hoist so taking pics was d...
