Love the shot of the rx7 coming out of the chicanne there, and the plane was cool, he was circling the track for a while.

another good day..... I was the only AWD car this time

lol..... yeah. I was pissed because I worked to keep him back there for 4 laps, then he passed me like I was parked on the last lap.

Thanks for the compliment, this is what it looks like on the outside.....

Heres one of the summer ones...

Future races should be a road course instead of the oval. Yes, club insurance only covers damage to persons/property not involved in the ...

Fun day!

found it... loose plug wire. Doh!

some iso-heet didn't help, turned boost down to 5-7psi, no significant change. Gonna try siphoning the tank tommorow.

I do have a wideband, an lc1. I thought about that this morning, I can probably get it hooked up tommorow, also run in diagnostic mode for troubleshooting.

My car started hesitating and bacfiring yesterday about the same time I filled up with fuel (90 chevron, the best we have available). It does it at 1/2-3/4 throttle around 5-6#. I'm pretty sure I can hear it popping back through the intake. Car was running fine in the morning, filled up on the way h...

Check the susp. sticky for spring rates, I think wagon springs are a bit stronger.

Found the harness on my FCD partially unplugged, short test drive wasn't able to duplicate the problem. Hopefully that was it, now I just need to figure out the right way to clear these codes...

I just tried a couple times to reset the ECU, either I'm doing it wrong (probable) or I'm getting the same codes again.

While driving in check mode to reset, the CEL started flashing code 45. Since I have a Fuel Cut Defender I'm gonna make sure the wiring on that thing didn't get messed up.

got a 22 (Knock Sensor), 23 (Air Flow Sensor), and 45 (Pressure sense and exchange). When I drove the other day the boost controller lines had been disconected and I overboosted and got fuel-cut a few times, I think thats what the 22 and 45 are from. gonna see how to check the MAF, I assume thats wh...

Just fixed my car after smashing the front left corner, now it cuts out once it gets up to temp. Car runs great cold, but then throws a code and will only run up to about 1/4 throttle. Let the car cool off and it runs good, CEL goes out. I haven't pulled the code yet but will after work.

Any advice?

I use that one also, works good.

need a left... sending PM

been a while since I brushed up on this, but here ya go. Swapping springs might help you little, your springs could be overworked and worn out. Most of the lift from the OB/Forester swap is from a different strut design, so without swapping struts not much happens. Swapping struts sometimes neccesit...

Thanks for the update, as long as I have the car I'll be interested in an ECU upgrade/Tune.

for the alcan I'd keep it simple and stick with the factory ECU. Very mild boost controller, FCD. If need be you can delete the boost controller and Fuel Cut and finish stock. I also wouldn't waste money on SS lines unless yours are obviously shot and/or you've nothing else to spend money on. If you...

cool, any updates? Was pretty bummed when revtronix dissapeared, I've got all the supporting bits and was hoping to up injectors this summer.

looks like the finish is in anchorage, I'll keep an eye out for you.

cool, I'll have to look into where the finish is, Paul talked a little about the Rally when he was up here last fall.

promising, but it looks as though the forum got raped.
