I've hardly driven the car this year, and I would rather someone else enjoy the car at this point, so I'm selling. I have been fairly meticulous about note taking on this car since I have owned it. I have a 15 page document that lists date and mileage for every time that I worked on the car from...

I'm in St. Louis and am looking at a car (subaru) that I found on the internet located in Boardman, OH. I'm hoping to find someone in the area that would be willing to go by and test drive the car for me before I just trust everything the sales guy tells me and I purchase a plane ticket to come...

So, I did my first PDX this summer and wasn't able to make it to more this year, but am definitely going to make some more next year :). But I'm looking at improving my brakes this winter. ---The Backstory--- Perhaps it was just my noobness and I was riding the brakes too much that first...

This weekend will be my second autocross. The first time out I wasn't worried to much about the setup of my suspension...just learning about the event itself and having a good time. This time around I want to mess with the suspension and dial the car in a little. You can see the mods below...

I installed my panhard bar earlier this year and noticed the rear axle wasn't centered under the body at that time. With 275 width wheels it was noticeable to me, but it wasn't super visible. I went to Kuhmo Ecsta XS 295 wide wheels (which seem to run wider than other 295 tires) and the...

So, I've been thinking about adding an oil cooler to my setup to help cooling, but I really don't need it under normal driving conditions. I have a battery relocation, so I was thinking about putting it behind the driver's side head light and then remove the head light on open track days. If...

Well, I did my first PDX last week. It was a blast! It feels good to push the car and get more out of it than I ever could on the street. I'm sure most of you guys know all of this, but I'm excited so I had to post a couple of take aways and questions. 1. Ride with more people. My greatest...

Forgive me if this has been discussed before. I did a Google search for site:performance.com Evans npg" and found a little bit but I still have questions. I am heavily leaning toward using this stuff...but want to do it right. 1. The biggest question is about driving in cold weather. The...

My intake has the IAT1 sitting there, but it is unused because I'm using the 96 computer with my swap. So the IAT2 sensor on the motor is wired to the IAT1. I want to be able to datalog the IAT1 though, using analog input on the SCT. I need to know the characterization of the sensor though...

My car had a motoblue quick change upper on it when I bought it. It has a 2.76 upper, but I can't find any other pulleys available. The steeda pulleys look similar though. Can someone measure the inner diameter of their steeda, and the diameter of the 5 bolts that hold the pulley to the hub...

I picked up some RPF1 wheels WAY to cheap to pass up...but the fronts are only 17x8.5. A tire size calculator says probably the best size is 245, but I'd like to run 255 if I can. I autocross a couple of times a year when I have time to make it to an event, and will be doing my first HPDE...

I'm thinking about mounting a black plastic plate above my mirror and mounting a few things such as a sub controller and possibly some other items up there. I don't want to just screw into the headliner because it might cause it to sag, so I'm hoping someone has a picture of the headliner...

I'm working on polishing a Dragon Plenum, and I'm trying to figure out how to sand down the cast aluminum in between the letters on it. I've been working the whole thing over and the rest of it is down to wet sanding with 400 grit now and is starting to look good...but I'm not sure what to do...

This episode is just over a year old, but new on netflix and I was watching it the other night and noticed TXPD's car on the show. So maybe this is a repost, a quick search didn't find it...so I thought I would post it up. He's at 8:20 on Segment 3 of this show here: Top Gear Season 15 Episode...

I'm looking at getting a road race oil pan for my car, and am wondering if anyone is using this pan on their car: Amazon.com: Moroso 20548 Oil Pan for Ford 4.6/5.4 Engines (Road Race Applications): Automotive Mostly concerned about this one line from the description on that page: "Will Not...
