    Summer 08 meet?

    Two easy suggestions from my side: 1) TGI Fridays at Miller Park (open all the time) - can't do see below. 2) Delafield again 3) Ridge Run County Park - West Bend, WI But I guess #1 is out now that I look as they have a home game at 7:05 that night so I'm sure the parking etc would be a...

    DIY How To Remove/Install Tranny and LSD or Disassemble Gears

    just pulling the selector in and out won't test 5th.. you have to do like shane said and basically you put a screw driver through the selector move it ot the neutral position and then have to twist it to one side to exercsie 5th and reverse and I too recommend you do that through all 6 gears (5...

    FS: Ultimate Turbo Mazda MP3

    Would anybody in here be interested in just the engine out of my car? Thoughts on a reasonable price for it? It cost about 10K to build. Later! Steve

    FS: Ultimate Turbo Mazda MP3

    PM him again or something. I never saw any of the paypal etc, so I really can't help, that's all him. I would have thought most/all of it was refunded by now.

    P5 NA Build - Target 175whp

    LordWorm and I are on the same page :). I usually have the driver do most of the runs in 2nd gear as it keeps the speeds reasonable. Some pulls in 3rd gear, but never anything in 4th other than some lower speed low rpm accelerations. So we keep it safe and controlled and generally legal and...

    FS: Ultimate Turbo Mazda MP3

    Because the raffle went for almost 5 months and didn't even get to half of the tickets needed (I don't even think it made it to 1/3 of the tickets). Because I can't market/sell the car while a raffle is going on as that pulls the rug out from under the raffle. It just simply wasn't being...

    FS: Ultimate Turbo Mazda MP3

    Bump... still available. And seriously if it doesn't sell by this winter I'll be dismantling it and selling/trading it off bit by bit to make it basically stock.

    P5 NA Build - Target 175whp

    Yeah, SAE factors are kinda useless.. That is why dynos are really ONLY good for comparing the same car on the same dyno each time. Too much you can fudge as you please on them. Dynos are not good for tuning, I've tuned on them a few times and will take a road tune over a dyno tune any day...

    P5 NA Build - Target 175whp

    Supertech makes good stuff. I used Ferrea for my stuff but I'd use Supertech in a heartbeat if they had been available when I did mine.

    Summer 08 meet?

    how much of the harness is shot? I may actually part out my MP3 over the winter and put it back roughly to stock depending on how things go. I have a guy with a Mazdaspeed 3 offering a trade of the cars with some cash involved, and it's a decent deal but he is in PA. I don't want another car...

    P5 NA Build - Target 175whp

    Mustangs read a solid 10-15% conservative relative to a dynojet, so you could already say the car is pushing 160-165 at the ground. With some re-tuning and a dyno-jet pull you probably are already at or within ~7 horse of 175 whp.

    P5 NA Build - Target 175whp

    Looks like about 10% or better of your fall off is due to AFR actually. If I had done a better job on the tune at the high rpm's you probably would have picked up another 5 horse at least if not over 7 more. The timing is also conservative as I only ran you to about 39 degrees max i think and at...

    Summer 08 meet?

    burned up? What happened... Insurance covering any of it? Sorry to hear that though! That sucks!! I half wish mine would burn up sometimes as then it will never be abused by anyone and I'll get the insurance money instead of having to sell it.. but that's neither here nor there. Sorry to hear of...

    Summer 08 meet?

    Pretty knowledgeable guy... but he suddenly stopped returning calls etc after being all set for me to bring the car out there one night to look at it. So no idea what is going on at all. Somebody local is interested now that is from the boards, so we'll see if that pans out. Selling a car is a...

    Rishie's FITMENT RECIPE

    Yeah, they won't. I tried it already. You'd need about a 38mm offset depending on your shocks, you'll need to trim out the fenders, and you can at best do a 225 in the back and a 235 in the front and it all has to be "perfect" and run relatively agressive negative camber to get them to tuck in...
