Hey guys, it's been a while since I gave everyone an update on my Rx-4. Not too much has been accomplished but hopefully over winter that will change. I managed to get the interior and wiring all pieced together and I am now tackling some rust issues. They aren't too serious but it has to be fixed. I was also able to get a hold of a 13B 4 port from a 74-75 Rx-4 that I want to build over winter for it. I'm thinking I may try a bridgeport or a nice street port with S5 NA rotors and carbon apex seals. I am wondering if this may be too agressive though. I've heard the stock ports and the stock hitachi carb work really well. If anyone has 2 cents worth of advice for me, fire away. I don't know a whole lot about these early engines. Just for kicks here are a few photos of the car. The nasty damage on the driver's rear is from ice falling on the car from a house roof.
