  1. I have put myself in a tiny bit of a pinch so I am trying to figure out how fast I can change the clutch in my RX. I have a brand new kit but limited hours to take care of this due to working most of the time. Here is the question. would two experienced mechanics with air tools be able to change the clutch release bearing and pilot bushing in less than 4 hours?
  2. ABOG its good to see an RX used as it should be... if you are interested below is my car and it is an autocross car too.
  3. I have the Enike 80 series in 13x5.5 and I am finding I need more tire. is there such a thing as a 13x7 for these cars? I don't want steel for weight reasons. this is my car with it's war paint on..
  4. I understand the ceiling being high on a sound system, that's where the quality lives. I am glad you are not the typical crank it till your deaf bass head they give high powered stereos a bad name. I am eagerly awaiting photos of your install I need ideas
  5. had a scrub session with my enkeis today Before and as I got them and this is after 1/2 hour with steel wool and brushes I'll have photos of the race decals later (when it's light out)
  6. tomorrow I will be re-oiling my struts so they will work with my race springs (a temporary fix till I get my 5 lug setup)
  7. The eg33 is the same bellhousing pattern as an ej. I know this because a friend has an ej wrx trans in his SVX with no adapter plate.
  8. surprisingly it did the rear never broke loose once I got going but in the really slow sections it sure wanted to.
  9. the stock airbox and filter will flow just as well as a K&N. If you are looking for more power look elsewhere like Exhaust.
  10. the spoiler is for autocross and yes it kills milage but creates down force at lower speed so the trade off may be ok. I will find out this week end when I race it.
  11. I am currently running full coil overs on re-valved stock shocks (heavier oil in stock shock) full XT6 sways front and rear on toyo RA1 Dot race tires. I am planning to convert to 5 lug so I can get wider wheels and more travel at race ride height. I'm looking at a set of 15x8 0 offset Rotas.
  12. this car is stripped out the only interior is the required front seats. even the sound deadening is gone
  13. I took mine racing and had a ton of fun I can't wait to have more power better shocks and a better driver.... well two out of three anyway.
  14. I am running a TWE 2.5inch bellmouth DP with 2.5 exhaust from there back. I found my missing HP I had turned the boost down to 9psi for some reason I think it was the clutch so there's my missing power. I will still work on more
  15. I do plan to swap the stock injectors for 280zx-t injectors along with the appropriate maf mod. The reason I am looking for power is I am being beaten by a civic in street modified.
  16. Here is the short list of what I haven't changed. Intake manifold, exhaust manifold, turbo, camshafts, ecu, injectors and turbo. I have on the shelf a decent size FMIC and I can get a header that will fit a td04. I know a larger turbo would mean cooler charge temps so that is high on the list.
  17. As many here know I am autocrossing my RX. I have a pretty fresh engine that has had a JWX rebuild and tuning. I have taken this engine a bit further with an intercooler boost control (set to 11psi) and a CAI. I am now looking for more power without turning up the boost any more. Any help is appreciated. I am not ready to do an ej swap yet.
