The transmission of this Avante is not the smoothest. It really is a car with a high price, and now I understand why was not successful when it came out in 1988.
The trans on the 1988 Avante is silky smooth, but the 2011 Avante not so.. Must be binding somewere in the rear gearbox I think.
I drove the original Avante to some sucsess back in the 80` and Im trying to make a racer of the new one. Ive put the chassis from the 2001 Avante on to gain some 15mm on the wheelbase. And Im using the HL dampers from the TRF201 front and rear. Waiting for the balldiffs from the new Vajra and maybe Im going to use the steering from that one also, or maybe from the M-05..
