strat in 2012
Friday, May 13, 2011 3:17 PM
thought i'd post a shot update of what's going on with the sedan.

first a few pics and then we'll go in to the specifics.




on the way/already here

fidanza flywheel
obx lsd
new throwout bearing/slave cylinder assembly
clutchnet 6 puck clutch with hd pressure plate
arp flywheel bolts

on the short list:
zzp s3
dual pass end plate
60# injectors
4th bronze wheel (since i'm still rolling mismatched)

install on the flywheel/clutch/lsd should be sometime in June (have to work around autox schedule)

and a short vid from our first event in the NEPA SCCA region. (not my fastest run of the day but not horrible either)

Do you plan to run that LSD straight up or will you modify it like listed before?


GMR has got nothing on this

i'm not sure yet... i know fetter ran his out of the box with no issues and my car isn't putting near the power down.

Sounds like a plan so far!

Are you pulleying down, hence the 60#ers and beefing up the cooling?

considering it... i know with the 3.1, the lsj injectors are pretty much maxed out. looking at 60's to give me a bit of head room for future mods.

I alos forgot... i've got -1.5 camber shims coming for the rear. also still have a set of toyo mirrors to get installed.

You need to take it apart anyways to get a surface machined so you might as well bevel the axle gears so you can actually get your axles out. See my how to for what I did when we installed it in my brothers cav.

me too... i called them to check on my order since they suck at responding to emails. at that time I was told they were waiting on more info from me on the year and model of the car. pretty sure I picked out the clutch for my car and the part number should tell them that info. keeping my fingers crossed.

found my matching 4th wheel on ebay and bought it.

Wrong offset or width, I'm calling it . God would you hate me.

I thought Fetter upgraded the hardware or something before running it, I'd double check.




Re: strat in 2012

in the obx lsd thread i found, fetter said he dropped it in out of the box.

wheel is advertised as a 17x8 with a +35. if it's wrong, i'm coming to smack you around joe. LOL

jmarks... gotcha!

jeffie... plan on looking at them tonight. seem to be holding up fine but I need to climb under it and take a look.

ryan... 1st in SM yesterday and had the 6th fastest overall time of the day.

threw -1.5 degrees of camber at the rear and put in the f-body arp lug studs I had laying around today.

my 4th bronze wheel came in today. It'll go on once I get a new tire (since one rear tire has a nice groove cut in it from the LZM rear bushings that failed)

also ordered a suction cup camera mount so I can get some better autox video.

more autox action tomorrow.

a clean sedan + auto-x = the most epic of wins.. I love seeing something other than drag getting some jbody action for once I'm building my coupe toward touring.. let's just hope I make as big a splash as your car
