What is your budget? There are a couple cars on the Council forum that look interesting.

We made one of these:

Worked great.
What ever happened with this?

So if I understand your post, you install super soft bushings, then stayrods that are designed to bind under bump, deforming the bushings and force the whole beam to shift and induce some toe out on...
Thanks for the replies, and Joe, nice car.
Joe, what are you running for sway bars, if you don't mind my asking? It looks like yous is similar to the Neuspeed I have, but I notice some bolt...
Digging this back up, has anyone tried anti-toe links on an A1? IT Legality is not a concern.
Thanks,
Tom
Dragging this one back up for the same question I asked back in 2006. Any update on this? I still don't see them on your site.
Thanks,
Tom
Thanks. How much slower than a Hoosier do you think they were? Do you remember which compound you used?
You think they are faster than Toyos?
Thanks,
Tom
Trying to decide on tires for next year. Has anyone run Hankook Z214s in an enduro? I have heard claims that they are as fast as a Hoosier but wear like a Toyo, but I am pretty skeptical.
Anyone...
To follow up with this, We tore down our other spare core engine, and found the mystical 6 piece center bearing.
It looks like the #3 main bearing itself is the same as all the others, but there...
Thanks for the reply. We will put new clutch parts in when we put it back together, assuming we can put it back together. I suspect the block is fine, the bearings didn't wear all the way through. ...
This is strange, because I don't think the engine has been rebuilt. The guy who gave it to me said it only had 117K miles on it when he pulled it to install a 16V engine.
That bearing looks...
A friend gave us a VW 1.8L 8V GTI engine a couple years ago as a core. We redid the head last year, but just this afternoon tore down the bottom end to get it rebuilt, and found some interesting...
Longest Day?
I Don't Think So. :D

I sent you a PM, keep this thread on topic.

Just curious, what is the "Estimated Flywheel IT HP" based on?
In the case of the 911SC in particular, the engine in my 82 911 SC street car is modded hell and gone beyond what is IT legal...
Any update on this? I still don't see them on your site.

Wrong. Anything that makes working on the car easier, allows me to do other things, like spending time with my family.
Wrong. Money not spent on replacing an OE harness (that is much more...
I wasn't involved in that discussion, and I only mentioned GTI Cup in reference to how my car is prepped. The decision to use suplimental rules in Norcal happened before I bought my car, but it...
It is different in that nothing I am talking about would improve the performance of the car. You start monkeying with camshafts, you need to rebalance all the cars, in every class, and that is not...
You are completely missing the point. I am not trying to make my car more competitive, I really don't care. Some cars are going to be faster in any given class, and given the number of cars...
We have class killers now, (CRX in ITA, BMW 2002 and Volvos in ITB, etc)I don't see how that is any different. Hiding ballast is clearly cheating for competitive advantage, the rules are clear on...
I am generally talking about the "That which is not specifically permitted, is forbidden" stuff, that gives no competitive advantage, but some of the mandated stuff is a little silly, particularly...
I would be up for a little rules creep that said something to the effect of "Any item/equipment that has no business on a race car may be removed, provided the car meets class weight limits and...
