I ran across this thread, it's about a restoration of a VW Thing, which is a civilian version of a WW II Kubelwagen, as-far as I am aware. One of my firefighter co-workers had one (also a '57 Nomad, and a '56 before that), they have a propensity to rust. Here's a good thread to look thru for...

Sold Fits 85-92. Purchased these used PO put them in, tried them for around 500 miles then went a different direction. I made mistake and purchased them won't fit my 96 nor 99.

I watch with anticipation as auto companies roll out cars with accident avoidance technology and prototype many other new technologies to compensate for the growing surplus of innatentive and impaired drivers. Cars that "see" hazards and react without driver input, how many of our fallen fellow...

I'm new to the Vmax community. I bought a 1988 with 43000 miles back in April. It was running well but has recently started making a popping noise from under or around the air box area, especially when cold. I've sprayed carb cleaner around the carb inlet rubbers and air box to check for...

Ok folks, I'm stuck with a decision... or lack thereof. I don't know what route to go with the front suspension. I love hitting the twisties but there's not a whole lot of twisties around here in NW Ohio. I tend to have an aggressive riding style as I ride with sportbikes most of the time and...

I have the 1.0 Race Tech front springs and they are just too stiff for my weight. According to the Race Tech website, I should have the .90 rated springs. Part of the problem is I have lost 37 pounds (187 to 150) but I think the 1.0 was probably too heavy even for my previous weight. So...

What is your opinion to bring online, at a specific date/time, a technical person by using the VMOA's interactive chat? Everyone can come into our www.vmoa.net sites Technical chat room and interact with a special guest in real time for the event? We need to know your thoughts and would...

I ordered some race tech springs (no emulators) for my 05. I took it to a local shop to have the seals changed and the new springs installed. So now my issue, I started with one inch of preload and 10 weight oil, the compression rate was very stiff and the reaction was to fast and harsh, I loved...

Need to ask some questions about your vmax? Want to learn how to change your oil? How about how to remove your rear tire? Im even going to swap the rear end for a venture drive. Also Im going to do the COP mod. There will be a Morgan carb tune here as well to sync up your carbs. Come by...

OK, got my new Race Tech springs for my 85 Vmax and they are significantly shorter than my factory springs. I had to make 10" long spacers to make up the difference. Is this normal? I got the S3234-100.

On Sunday April 28, 2013, I will be hosting a Maryland VMAX tech day at my house. I will be servicing a 1999 Vmax with over 114,000 miles. Here is a list of things that will be done during this tech session: Drain brake fluids Replace front/rear calipers with new ones Fill and bleed...

Just checking to see if any one might be interested in another tech day soon. I have so much going on lately that im not sure when I can do it but if I have enough interest I will try & figure something out.

A guy I work with was "schooling" me on the v4 engine and Vboost tech. He claimed that Harley was designing the new v4 in the late 70's and scrapped it selling some of the patents to Honda who then sold the tech info to Yamaha. Speculation or truth to this?

i sent you a pm about race tech stuff. gold valves,springs,and oil thanks
