    Default RF90 Van Diemen Rebuilt

    1990 rf90 van diemen


    Purchased the car from a Canadian in 2008 and poured a considerable amount of money in the car to bring it up to performance and safety standards. The car was only ever used for autox duty and comes with the original log book. Anything suspect was replaced including an upright, brake line, fuel cell, and belts.


    Auriga engine


    Carb Rebuilt by Ivey


    Throttle Linkage all rebuilt


    Pertronix Electronic Ignition Installed


    AN fitting fuel pump


    Motorcycle fan installed in one radiator (for autox)


    Brand new fuel cell installed ($$)


    OE Bilsteins... not penskes shown

    OE Van Diemen Spider Bracing and Rear Rockers... not EFM shown

    All calipers rebuilt and Hawk Autox Pads installed (original pads… I believe hawk blue are included)


    Panasport ultralight rims with low heat cycle'd r35a's


    Master Cylinders rebuilt


    New throwout bearing installed


    Nearly every spherical was replaced on the car with Auroras


    Stack Dash


    Shift Linkage joints replaced with helicopter joints


    Gears: Integral 1st 13:37 17:34 17:28 19:27 23:27 18:27 R&P 9:31


    Spare Rear Diff


    LD200 alignment tool


    Setup Sheets for the Glen and Lime Rock



    As it sits right now the car is 100% turn key.





























    I am selling the car because I'm looking at moving to a different kind of formula car, mainly something with a bigger footbox or ability to go to a 2 pedal setup w/ hand clutch (m/c power).


    Please don't hesitate to contact with questions.

    Forgot to mention that the car also has a new elliptical quick release and steering shaft/steering bushing. Pretty happy with the amount of play in the wheel.

    The stack dash also comes with its IR transponders for split and lap times.

    Bump. Willing to work on price (which will of course be more reasonable before the snow is gone and I'm itching to keep the car)

    I am now listing the dampers and rear cnc'd bracing separately.

    The car hasn't been driven (except started to avoid moisture buildup) at all since last season. It's a massive shame but I am just too busy with my degree.

    I will sell this car for $9,999 with oe bilsteins and van diemen spider bracing/rockers.

    Thx Jon... I think I'm kind of wiggling around in the seat and I think I'm adjusting my helmet in that photo... with that said I am 6'3" and had to make an aggressive bead seat to pass the broom test.

    Must still be for sale. You said it was set up for autocross, yes? Are you no longer an autocrosser? Why give up the car?
    How are the tires?
    What might it take to ship to Ca? e mail me directly mark@ memervich.com

    News to me!


    I'm assuming the french->english translation slightly altered what you meant to say.

    I currently have plans to meet with a buyer this week, if it doesn't work out I'll gladly let you know Serge.

    I would like to know, too, if the sale doesn't work this weekend.

    BTW, is selling the car with the Penskes an option? If so, at what price?

    Thanks,

    Got most of the details worked out on the VD including mounting a muffler and corner weighting plus alignment. It is ready for its debut this Sunday on new Hoosiers.
