Just a small point ... but "lightly modified" includes a custom-made pinion gear that is unique to the pre-50000 TRs. Such things are not cheap ! My suggestion is to contact Ted Schumacher at TSi, a

Certainly part of the discrepancy is that the figures given at http://www.vtr.org/maintain/brake-conversion.html are not from 60 mph, but closer to 66 mph (3000 rpm, direct drive, 3.45 rear, 205/70-

Dave replied : Well, that should tell you right there, since the brakes remove kinetic energy at a fairly constant rate. So the stopping *time* is linear. But the distance is still a square function

That's true of common dog chain. However, welded chain is sometimes used for dog collars (particularly for large, strong dogs). http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_Display.cfm?pCatId=357 Rand

Actually, it's not. The tires do slide against the pavement, a bit, under maximum braking. Ok, that I'll buy. Sure it is, in terms of distance traveled. Work is force (which is nearly constant becau

It's also important that the wheels lock at the same time, because maximum braking is not with the wheels locked, but rather rolling just slightly slower than the car is moving. Thus, front/rear bia

If that's not a dyslexic 185, then I'd say that's the problem. It *should* run only slightly above the opening temperature of the thermostat, that's the way it's supposed to work. Randall

seats help, too. That's caused by not maintaining the rear springs properly. Ok, I'll grant you that with all sorts of modifications, a Triumph IRS can be better than a stock beam axle. But "apples
