Frigging work PC won't render the vids....have to wait to watch.

Tied for 3rd/4th in PAX today... Weird.



Had my buddy Sang codrive too (PrimeAKF11 or something like that on 3S forums)

Started my STR build last night after a frustrating Philly autocross where I coned away my only runs that felt "ok" so here's the header install. Suspension later this week, hopefully.












Video of the Philly SCCA event will come soon too.

Sunday I did Philly's event at Warminster. Won my class and 8th in PAX. Coned away a much better result
Clean run:



Dirty run:

STR prep is complete (ish...) There's lightweight brake rotors, a tune, diff bushing inserts, and wheels/tires to come. Wheels/tires coming this week

Big thanks to Karcepts for all of the parts and thanks to my brother for taking care of me and getting work done

Went for a scenic drive today

Quite a bit of firewall flex with moderate braking force...

Is there sufficient room to install a brace? I wonder how much the firewall on my 86 flexes when I push hard on the pedal.

I'm designing a brace, yes.

Do a brace for your 86. I had one. Big improvement IMO. That had similar flex to the ND, go look up Grimmspeed's videos testing their brace.

I got my preliminary wheels & tires ready to go for STR. Waiting for my 6ULs to show up at some undetermined point in time, haha.







Excuse the filthy car, it rained today.
