    New Personal Best

    Went to the track last night and got my new personal best. I don't know if it's got much more in it. I think I can better my 60ft time a little and maybe add a touch more timing up top but this is all the boost this little turbo can make.

    FEELER: Rota grid 17x9.5 +12 offset 4x114.3 Kosei K1 wheels

    I am considering selling my new wheels. I bought them last year. They have aprox 18-20 Auto-x events on them and maybe 200 street miles for tuning. I am thinking of doing a 5 lug swap and these are 4 lug wheels. They stick out about 1.5"-2" from the fender. Coilovers are a must to run these...

    I knew this moment would come

    I knew that my luck with this transmission was too good to be true. Out doing some logging and tuning yesterday on my way home from doing my taxes I get on this nice straight section of road I decide to stand on it and run it though the gears. First gear was awesome spinning all 4 just rolling...

    Clutches

    So I have killed my clutch once again. For the past 10 years I have aways ran ACT clutches with Mitsu street disc as the ACT disc always threw the springs out. 2900 lbs pressure plate has always treated me good. I finally found the sack to turn the boost up on E85 and think I have found the next...

    Car woes

    So the car has developed a tick and it sounded like a lifter so I didn't pay it much attention until it started driving the knock sensor crazy. I pulled it apart and replaced the 3g lifters with a new set and the noise didn't even change. I pulled the oil pan to look at the bearings and decided...

    Window Crank

    Does anyone know what window cranks will fit for manual windows. The place I got my regulators from didn't have the cranks and Mitsubishi tells me I'm S.O.L. I think the 2G Eclipse ones might fit but wasn't sure. If anyone else has converted to manual windows have you tried something other than...

    Went to the strip

    Finally decided to put race gas in the car and take it to the track. I went a couple weeks ago but couldn't do any better than a 12.51 on pump gas. It just kept knocking so I gave up. Put 5 gallons of C16 in and started running. Best I could get was a 11.774 @ 118.57. I wanted to go faster but...

    Broken again

    I've broken a lot of parts over the years but this is the first time I managed to do this. The power wire to the boost controller had a fuse with a spring and a bundle of wire all together thanks to whoever installed it and the spring has gotten weak enough that the wire pulling on it cuts power...

    EVO REAR DIFF IN A VR-4

    So I did this a long time ago and people keep asking if I would do a write up on how I did it. If you have knowledge of setting up a ring and pinion it should be straight forward. If not you may want to have someone else do it. I was lucky and I was able to reuse all of the factory shims and my...

    New Brake setup finally installed

    I have been looking around trying to find something to fit under my 16" race wheels and couldn't ever find anything to clear. Finally I decided to do it myself. I had some wilwood calipers lying around from my buddies Subaru race car and just had to find rotors. I was originally going to use 13"...

    Clutches

    So I have been doing a lot or reading trying to decide which clutch I want to put back in my race car. I have been using an ACT 2900 with a street disc since they came out some years ago. I have been though 2 pressure plates and maybe 4 disc. When I was daily driving my auto-x car. I had to do...

    Race ABS.

    Has anyone tried upgrading our ABS? Some of the lots we Auto-X on require ABS. I have very aggressive brake pads and think I could benefit from ABS but the stock ABS sucks. I was thinking of trying to fit evo ABS cause that seems like it would be the easiest route. Also Ford and BMW offer race...

    Pix from my last Auto-x

    I got some pix of the car from the last auto-x. The car feels good since I made some suspension changes. I am using a different set of wheels too. I thought I needed more tire on the ground. I scored fist in class but I had hoped to be a bit faster. Need to get used to the changes.

    First time to track with new car/build

    So my buddy finally was able to drag me to the strip last night. I have been being a Pu$$y for a while now. I decided to get a baseline with 93 pump and 20 psi on my street tune and my 17" street tires. First pass was a 12.72, 2nd was a 12.75, and finally my last pass was a 12.69 all with the...

    brake kit

    I came accross this on accident and am wondering if it would work. Wilwood has a brake kit out for the 02-03 Lancer. It looks like it may fit but I am not sure yet. Does any one on here have a lance for a daily or something? The rotors on a Lancer are the same as a N/T Galant. I am unsure of...

    REAR DIFF QUESTIONS

    Is anyone else out there running an evo rear diff? I thought it felt better on the street but after my first auto-x in the dry I may be changing my mind. With my new suspension set up and new race tires I am lifting the rear inside tire 6-8 inches off the ground. I can't accelerate out of a turn...

    N/T Cams

    Has anyone used the N/T cams before. They seem to be bit more aggressive than the stock turbo cams. Look good for my DD. I have the engine out and will be pulling the cams to do new lifters so I thought if they might be a bit better I would throw them in. I have a set sitting here.Thanks
