    Anyone have a link to GpA/N rally parts scan?

    It has the old BFMR rally parts schematic with a few part numbers and stuff.
    Originally avail. in print form.

    Googled without luck.

    I need the GpA transmission ratios, for it's rebuild.

    I had it on the old computer that crashed.

    Thanks,
    Erik

        Nope- long gone!

        Except maybe find some used bits from an old rally car or team.

          Yeah... finding the stock normal parts is hard enough.

            "There's a hierarchy of insanity in motor sports. Normal people think all racers are crazy. Folks who race sedans think people in open-wheel cars are nuts. People who race cars of any kind think motorcycle racers are absolutely off theirs meds. But there's one group that everyone agrees is made up of the most extreme, the most daring, and absolutely craziest people in racing - rally racers."

              Nice to view those items again. I have the Group A parts list in paper form in my garage. Been a long time since I looked at those.

              Interesting observation is the Group A brakes (5 lug RX7 units) are just a wee bit larger than the Galant units we use.

                  You and me both Jeff... I bet... somewhere in Colorado there's a guy with some of these parts. For some reason a lot of weird parts find themselves in CO. I think that guy in Aurora that had a bunch is finally out though.

                    i mean is it to hard to ask for a set of skidplates and bolt on bigger brakes. screw the 5 lug hubs though for using stock size bearings

                      Bolt on is relative...

                        Thanks for the link... good to see that again.

                        What do you guys think of the spring rates and dampening numbers?
                        (converted to english)

                        5" ground clearance

                        Front
                        -12"Spring free length
                        165#
                        170/110 damping force

                        Rear
                        13.375" Spring free length
                        121#
                        140/80 damping force

                        I hear ya, if I could get all those bolt on skidplates... underguard, joint guard, diff guard, and tank guard...I'd be all over it.

                        Looks like we'll need to make our own from 3/16"-1/4" 6061 aluminum sheet.

                        Also noticed that the front wheels have are 15x6 with a 54mm offset. That's a huge offset. Scrub radius is really important on a gravel.
