Hey, I am new.


  • Hey, I am new.

    Hi, As the subject line stated, Im new to the forum, Ive been lurking for a week or so, as I have been gaining interest in the car since i saw one at an auction and got a craving, the auction came and i ended up getting the car for 800 dollars, its a 1986 ZX turbo, the drive back was grand, the car feels pretty much perfect, only some minor issues.
    Because of these i have a question.
    Under heavy breaking the steering wheel begins to shudder and shake a little, I assume this is not normal? there are a few completley minor cosmetic issues and some worn out hoses, on monday im getting it looked at by a local shop, is there anything i should look out for or check up on?

    The shaking can be anything from warped Front rotors to worn out tie rod ends or ball joints.

    Pretty much go over your whole front suspension and replace whatever is worn or looks bad.Maybe even some poly in there?
