ha.

It's a no go for me on the Infinti ECU. Bought a haltech patch harness for my black FD. Still need to buy another ps1000 though.

TitaniumTT 01-25-2017 10:28 AM

I told you what I was able to accomplish with MC's little FB monster, yeah?

djmtsu 01-25-2017 11:28 AM

You know I'm the only one who loves you Bri-bri.

Can you tune a 40 year old Hitachi Carb?

Mods are header and electronic dizzy. Can you?

Anybody got a spare road race 13b header?

Johnny_K 01-31-2017 03:57 PM

i think Charles has 1 or 2, not sure if he wants to get rid of them though

TitaniumTT 01-31-2017 04:36 PM

I like to think ahead.

Johnny_K 01-31-2017 04:41 PM

Just buy Will's complete setup, swap it in and be done with it.

project86 01-31-2017 05:28 PM

I dont have the money for it. I want NA anyway

TitaniumTT 02-01-2017 09:52 AM

Come on Brian.. We've talked about this.... I don't want a stock NA.... maybe I'm giving your old red bull brain too much credit.

djmtsu 02-01-2017 12:06 PM

NA for life!

Boosted is fun for a while, but then you realize you spend more time fixing, upgrading, tuning than you actually do DRIVING.

Perhaps..... but with a 13B na I can't have it on the dyno while little bits of transmission scatter themselves from underneath the car while a puddle of tranny fluid is ever expanding from underneath while the turbo monster I built and tuned just purrs at idle laughing at the broken shafts and chunks of AL casing that are soaked in awesomeness. :fawk:

Well, you can.

P-port, full race bearings, massive ITB's, RPM's so high the trans bearings will seize leaving a trail of glory, and parts.

I'm on my third or fourth tranny. . . I can vouch for this as fact. Specifically the HIGH RPMs!

TitaniumTT 02-01-2017 12:56 PM

I'm talking case breaking torque here.... not 12k rpm's that kill bearings and sync's

who is revving to 12k? NA cars really destroys transmissions faster than Turbo?

FC Zach 02-15-2017 11:59 AM

I was high up there, maybe more, maybe less. . The gauge only goes to 8 so it's hard to tell. :)

FC Zach 02-15-2017 12:01 PM

I had a video of me test driving the car open down pipe and burying the needle for seconds. .

Anything will destroy the trans with RPM's way above what the bearings and lubrication limitations are.

So, 7-8-9k good to go. Past 10k, shit gets hectic.

Most turbo cars break them with torque.

The ITS cars were killing the N/A trannies on the back straight at pocono.... just winding them out in 5th and burning up the bearings

10,248 rpms.... I broke a corner seal and bounced the rotors off the plates. Tranny lived

Someone needs to donate an S2 trans to me so I can figure out how to get them into FC's ;)

FC Zach 02-15-2017 12:22 PM

The trans I'm replacing. . Till I can get it rebuilt to put back in is a JDM S5 TII. I'm buying a rebuilt S4 TII to hold me off till I can get the S5 repaired.

TitaniumTT 02-15-2017 12:25 PM

Wait, you had an S2 RX8 tranny in your FC and that's what took a shit?

FC Zach 02-15-2017 12:27 PM

No, all I've ever had in the FC was NAs and TIIs

I blew a s2 RX8 trans at the track. Vin and Adler had to come rescue me in Bowling Green on a school night. Didn't get home until after mid night. Good times.

rx7 vinnie 02-15-2017 10:04 PM

Can't count how many cars I pulled home for this Cracka.^^

That sounds like fun. After I blew my wheels bearings to shit and had to get flatbedded from NJMP to Speed1, than drive with the old man back to CT, than back to NJMP the next day to get my track trailer, than back to Speed1 the following weekend to fix and drive the car home.... I decided to never take the FC to a track day again without trailering.

The old man constantly goes to Watkins Glenn, it's a damn near 5 hour drive. I'm waiting for the day I get the call to trailer his ass home because his Boxster finally shit something

Now i just need to button up a few things, tune it and find a way to get tags for it.

Johnny_K 03-30-2017 07:23 AM
