So switch the transmission and pedal assembly. What is so hard about this?

Replace the o-ring on the distributor.

Lots of people have way shittier lives than you do. Not to be unsympathetic, but your problems may seem big to you when you couldn't even fathom the problems that some others have. Life isn't simple, it isn't logical, and it sure as shit isn't going to go where you think it is. In short, suck...

That thing is awesome. I have one and it works great. The only difference to make it work with an H22 is they drill the mounting holes out a bit wider.

Thanks! It's funny, since my dad used to own a 1976 BMW 2002, he also has an E30 M3 that he has had since 1990, now he also has an X5 4.6 iS so in a way we have always been a BMW family.....only now am I able to afford some BMW love. I think there are a lot of similarities between BMW and...

I don't understand what you are trying to say. Corner lies ahead, still at full throttle, commence braking, downshift (blip throttle with right foot slide into next lower gear, repeate if necessary), trail brake and turn in, back on throttle in the proper gear. Regardless of what foot you use...

The reason you break rods and have insane cylinder pressures is due to too much goddamned ignition timing. If you start the combustion process too early (while the piston is still way down in the bore on the compression stroke) you run the risk of very high cylinder pressures (which bends rods...

...isn't one of the more important skills required in motorsports. Modulating the brake under maximum (threshold) braking while bliping the throttle is a bit more difficult. I usually just left foot brake and downshift without the clutch, way easier than dicking around with heel-toe. *shrug*

No, that car is sold. This is mine now. There used to be an SR20 under the hood, then I started building a nice S52/M50 frankenstein for it this fall. Then I came to my senses and decided on something 130 lbs lighter (engine + tranny combo), that sits lower and farther back in the chassis, and...

Mmmmmm....dry sump, long tube header, standalone EFI, T56 dog-box......all wrapped in sexy E30 german skin. Help me make my dream come true!

Someone buy this to fund my E30/LS1 swap:D

The Charger that Dodge/Mopar brought to Targa Newfoundland last year was crazy. After it crashed into a steel I-beam, I saw that it had composite honeycomb doors, quarter panels and who knows what else! I bet there is even more technology in this Charger.

The Ecotec motor is a GM product (not Ford). Cosworth does sell a lot of Ecotec parts, although I wouldn't say they 'primarily' do Ecotec. As a Cosworth dealer I have some idea of their product line ;) Formula Atlantic has been replaced by the Pro Mazda series and Formula 2000 is a relic of...

...madness for over 6 years, and I have been through every single system on the vehicle and know that it is in top shape. Suspension: *PIC Performance Select threaded body dampers with 12k front and 14k rear rates *JDM ITR 23mm rear sway bar w/BSQ kit *Poly bushings out...

I use Carstrol GTX 10w30. It works great and my oil analyses always come back clean. On track I use either Mobil 1 15w50 or Agip Racing 10w60.

Jesus I saw this last week and shared it with EVERYONE at the shop. The universal reaction was horror/curiosity.

Even if cam timing is off a tooth, the ECU has no way to know this and will not throw a code 9. The TDC, cam position, and crank position sensors are all driven from the distributor so there is no way for one to move relative to another. It could also be the wiring to that sensor, or the VR...

I've idled lots of 1200cc injector cars and a few 1600cc setups perfectly with Crome. Idle stability requires tuning and an understanding of what those numbers in the boxes mean.
