If I was you in your situation, considering the car runs well, I'd throw that money into suspension components. Everything on these cars is worn out. Get a solid platform to build off of, most suspension components are decently priced and you'd be able to get quite a bit done for the 1k...

I'm running a Shorai. I have not tested everything yet, motor hasnt fired yet on this build. The powersteering is getting setup on a switch and will likely only be used for slow speed turning. Water pump is variable voltage and only uses what it needs. The defrost will likely work for what I...

Yea I run a ton of electronics so it was definitely necessary. I have electric power steering, remote water pump, external fuel pump, meth pump, 2 fans, defrost, all require a hefty power system. I'm in a lithium Iron battery aswell.

250A alt with 00ga wiring hahah, I'll be just fine

600W 12V system by demon tweeks yea there is an astonishing amount of components under the dash. The car is getting a full race pedigree so I'll be curious as well to see the final weigh. The rest of the car is pretty stripped down aswell, but theres always something more to take...

Did alot of prep this weekend on the dash harness. Had to remove all the Hvac system, climate control, audio, cluster, abs, srs, ac electrical systems. Removign wiring and stripping all the unnecessary connectors, wires and components I'll no longer be utilizing. For the HVAC system, I'll be...

There is a few smaller tracks in Washington, acouple in Oregon and a some in central/ southern Cali, but not a whole lot going on at the tracks for what I'm interested. The track close to me that does put on quite a few things is pretty cool, I have yet to drive it either. Just wish there were...

sooooooooooooo farrrrrrrr awaaayyyyyyyyyyyy . sad face

Yup was gonna say that. Lots of problems with these injectors.

fun lookin build! Car looks great What kinda numbers you looking for? Get some assembly lube on those cam lobes before you crank that over though

Ive had some scary seized parts that make you hide behind a wall while you're working the press hahahha.

I agree thats a chunk of money, but some tracks are around 500 bucks a day. Would be a blast though, too bad things like this don't happen up in the PNW

+1, I know it sounds simple but I've seen more than one person try and remove a bearing with the snap ring in. as for the Photobucket issue, if you are using chrome download this link and youll be able to view all your photobucket photos on the forum...

Ethanol is not overly corrosive by its self, especially in E85 form. Regular fuel is actually just as corrosive. The problem is the water content that ethanol attracts, being hygroscopic, which can cause corrosion. Methanol is more corrosive than ethanol though. Methanol on the other hand is...

I cannot wait for corn to become more common in Washington, There is about 3 places that sell E85 in western washington, none of which are remotely close to me.
