@chc
Aren't brand new cars supposed to look this good ?
balm for my soul to read these words from a quality manager of technical.
Your interests: RX7 fbs' (restoring & DRIVING)], slaying dragons, socialising, driving, holidaying abroad, helping others and giving an historic invaluable elford turbo a good home push you up in the rx7 sky where we all RX7 FB enthusiastic living.
Welcome in my heart

Sold my Opel Ascona A 1,6N and got my first Rx7 from a Opel dealer with 90000 km on the clock.

Thomas,
the front strut brace on your car..... do you think it makes much difference? Can you notice any difference under heavy cornering?

Ian,as you know about the lane grooves on the road. With bigger tires your Rx7 you feel the suspension isn´t strong enough to fight again these lane grooves. Rx7 FD are modified with an adjustable front suspension brace. My front suspension brace builted in 1990 out of stainless steal is about 5mm to long. Fixing the screw nut you got the power you need. Yes you can feel always your car is driving better especially with bigger tires.
Hope you understand what i mean. Was a lot of engagement to write these explanation.
