Unfortunately I'll need to cancel.
I blew my transmission last week in Qualcomm

Now, I'm trying to fit a T-5 gearbox so this might take some time :barf:

Good stuff Christos - I'll bring them to the next event. Thanks,

Excellent, I might be able to pick them up on my way to San Diego this weekend - where do you live Max?

sure I'll take them off your hands Max...let me know if you are going to be in San diego this weekend...

I want to thank Stan for getting out of his way in order to help me out with my car. He left early on Sunday missing the awards and the raffle, in order to go home and look for any hose that could possibly fit and bring my turbo car back to life (pretty important when the same car takes you back hom...

Hey guys, it seems that I might be racing by myself in SSM, do you know what other classes my car might be OK to run?
Should/can I run Super Street Prepared?

Why not do the RX-7 tranny conversion? I know Bill Wilner knows how to get that done.

Good point, let me look again into that Bill!
Thanks!

:unimpressed: :barf:

Hey guys

(Koji is out of town)

Thaks,

Does it makes sense to send my check today guys or all the spots are fully booked? the championships are all pay at the site, and don't "fill up" let me guess, you meant to post in the practice thread. :roll: yeap I meant to post this in the practice thread...well I sent my check anyways ...

I don't recall hearing to many successful engine stories that start with combining old and new parts. As they say pay a little now, or a lot later - just doing the labor twice would suck. I would take it in for service now while it is out, just for the piece of mind. Only 10k miles, how many "...

I am a bit concerned about the second shot though. Is the lower right valve "wet" or is that just due to the camera flash? Mike There was some oil in one of the cylinders Mike (this is on the old engine). That could be either a valve seal or more likely worn rings. Did you do a compressio...

Hey guys, I just got my built short block and I was planning to transfer the head from my old motor (only 10K miles on the head) yesterday but I noticed a lot of carbon deposits. It's possible that these deposits occurred when I was still using gas and then some white stuff were added from the E85 a...

I was out of the country for the holiday and I just saw this now.
That's very sad news ...

Legal. You want the Racelogic traction control system if you're going that direction though. If you're working with an ECU that claims to have traction control, it likely isn't up to the task. Mike Thank you Mike, yes I've ordered the Racelogic Traction Control + Launch Control + controller. Have y...

Short answer is launch control yes, traction control no. If Mike sees this he can probably expand. I think I need the long answer :-) I really don't see why, in other classes the advice on the traction control systems is stated under the ENGINE AND DRIVE TRAIN category. For example in the STREET PR...

Thank you for letting us know Lisa.
I'm glad she got better!
My thought and prayers are with you Renee.

Chris

Hey guys, can somebody help me confirm that an aftermarket Launch/Traction control is legal in SSM?

Thanks,
Chris

I fixed the ABS issue that it had (took it for a ride to confirm) and now I decided to see what's going on in the engine. The idle was smooth when I took it for a ride and it didn't have any smoke coming out - also no oil spots in the garage after 3 days parked there. After the ride I flushed out th...

I was looking for quite some time for another laguna blue miata with ABS. My plan was to swap the go fast parts into the ABS equipped car. This Saturday a friend of mine let me know about a laguna blue w/o carpet and roof been sold in Palm Springs and being a total POS but on a straight body with AB...
