I hear IT is huuuuuugggge in India.
Hey Chuck, I got your message. Yes I have calculated the wheel rates. A 350 in/lbs spring would put me at a 243 WR. So I think that 350 - 250 would get me in the ball park? That's the problem with...
Time to try some suspension tuning with the Great White Whale. Will buy, or if possible borrow.
looking for the following:
450 in/lb x 9" x 2.5
350 in/lb x 9" x 2.5
250 in/lb x 9" x...
I have my trailer stored at nearby Brookhaven Self Storage. They aren't cheap but it's close and secure. There is also another self storage place that takes trailers on the north side of the Marta...
Will you be rejoining us at the shop once you move back?
Yeah time to see just how slow I am and what is going to fall off the car. I did a test day at Roebling and the car had a few bugs to work out. Got most of them worked out, at least in theory.
...
Send the original to Kirk Racing in Alabama, they will make you an exact copy. It won't be cheap necessarily, but it will be high quality, and I am still amazed how they fit perfectly back in the...
Who knows, maybe I will. I hope by the end of April to finally get it out to an event.
Earl, they did have the program for years, and then stopped it a few years ago. It's good news for any national driver, but doesn't give us much. If you can get discounts on parts, thats great. I get...
Good Job Ron, congrats. That Jeff guy can never keep it on the tarmac! geez.
so what kind of gains does this new header get you?
well first of all, dont have any "Big Impacts"! :happy204:
Thats nothing. You should have seen the damage I fixed on the ZX.
Nice header! Custom, or off the shelf?
I incorrectly answered you before. They are 275/40/17s. They sure do fill the wheel wells. It will be interesting to see if a get a rub anywhere with them.
Thanks.
Possibly. I have in the past, so will try again this year.
thanks.

ok here are the log book photos: still need to do some suspension tuning and get some camber on all four wheels. But I plan on doing the March 19th Road Atlanta Test day.
...
ROTA makes a ton of wheels I believe in your needed size.
There was an ITS DelSol built by Mike Cottrell here in Atlanta quite a few years ago. I think the consensus was that it was a bit underpowered for "S". More importantly, I remember that it was...
I guess I won't know for sure until I build a full blown engine. But even 220whp seems optimistic.

Tristan,
Your weight is based on 235ish whp in IT trim for a full...
That spark plug cover is worth at least an additional 10 rwhp, and gives your car an aero advantage......throwing paper! That alone justifies adding 250lbs of lead to the car!:)
Thanks guys. Merry Christmas!
Need some opinions. On the new ITR 300zx I am building I need put in a catch can for oil. Evidently the stock PCV design is bad and has the tendency to dump a lot of oil into the plenums, especially...
I just hope the motor sounds like that! If I get to Nashville I'll look you up on that offer!
