Wish to god I had Photoshop it would have looked way better, this a quick job in MS Paint.
What I wanna do when it comes time for the real paint job is paint the whole car (except the silver bit) in satin or flat black and the silver part in more of a gun metal with a high amount of silver fleck.
Also replace the rear spoiler with a Mazdaspeed style lip spoiler, need a front spoiler too.
First thing though needs new suspension.

 

So upon leaving the meet on Friday night, all my idiot lights cam on. Immediately i thought, great my alt just died. Then a little further down the road they all went off. Seemed strange but even stranger is they all came back on a few minutes later. Looked down at my voltmeter and it was off the scale over 16 volts. Pulled over disconnected battery and alternator. Let it sit for a few then hooked it all back up. Now all the lights come on but my volts are about 11 or so. I think the alt is gone but wont know till i get it tested at Advanced. Anyone with similar problems?

p.s. Don't forget to send me that list Dave

 

Anyone running a megasquirt in their ride? Having a crappy fun time with mine currently, diddnt know if someone could lend some advice.

 

try getting a hold of tofuball in the Maryland forum, i know he's messed with iut alot
Have you looked in the Megasquirt forum on here?

 

you have pm

 

I have yes, mauythaibxr has been helping I just kinda need a helping hand (physical)

 

Are any of you guys going to man-up and come out to the NASA autocross at VMP this Sunday?
Or ist just going to be me and Robin yet again.........

 

If I had a vehicle that ran...

I could come in my Bronco I guess!

 

I'll be there in the 325is.

 

that was one of the best laid out autocross I've ever been on
I wish I had my black FC for that instead of the underpowered, all original parts, and all season tire wearing Miata- as fun as that was
How bout all those spinouts right in front of ya Zack was that cool or what?
And robin got to me come across the finish sideways once or twice i believe.

 

Zach, pleasure to i-Meet you! ;-) Just wondering if you still had that spare motor laying around somewhere I could pick up from you? Let me know man! Thanks! Hope to meet you for real some day!

 

lol, you make him sound like a legend!









Hardly the case!

 

Hahaha, Dave, Robin, what did you guys place? C'mon Robin, with new wheels and tires you can't complain that's the reason why you keep getting 13th!!!!!! hahaha, GETTING A TUNE SOON!!!! THEN IT'S OFF TO THE PARKING LOTS, THEN AUTOCROSS TRAINING, THEN GETTING 4 JOBS TO SAVE UP FOR A REBUILD JUST IN CASE, THEN TO AUTOCROSS!!!!!

 

I'd say I was somewhere near the bottom of the list, but once I stopped spinning the car the times got better - just ask Robin, giver of the timeslips.
I believe my best was a 56.6 which is pretty crappy but with nothing done to the car I didn't expect much

 

When is your White FC going to be done?

 

May 2010

 

haha, yes, you did come through sideways a few times. There were a few cars that made me pretty nervous though, some people waited waaaay too long to get on the binders.

I think I placed 6th overall. According to the times Jon posted I would be in third I think, but that 46.xxx time was not me....wish it was!

 

WHOA 6TH in the most competitive class? That's a big step up from 13th, hahaha. I think now you just need a Supercharger under that hood to get to 1st, lol.

I NEED A SUPRA FUEL PUMP!!!!!

 

6th overall, 2nd in my class





















of 2....

 

Does anybody have Zach's email address that they could PM me? I need to talk to him, and judging by his record of posts around here, he could never come back, lol...

 

If only you'd been at the autoX this Sunday, you coulda met him

 

Ordered the Nippondenso Fuel Pump, hopefully it gets here soon. Changed my tuning date to October 20th.

 

coffee tomorrow anyone?

 

Possibly. I need to get the harness back in my car and get the radiator filled with the cooling stuff again though.

 

o.o

yd you take the harness out? if it were me i wud never take it out again, because it was a pain in the *** to put it back in. the dam asb unit gets in the way.
