    NORCAL: TD's Mustache-Style Fulltrack Drift!

    I was thinking this was coming up in a couple weeks, but I just realized I have another month of procrastinating to do.

    Love the wheels/tires. And ~2750lbs! Holy crap.

    At this rate, that will be what, 5 months after GT5 hits the US? ;)

    Gran Turismo 5

    I bought a ps1 and GT when an autocrossing buddy told me it was the best sim around. Then GT2. Then GT3. Then PS2 came out with GT4 and everyone hyped it up -- I'm sorry, maybe the graphics were better, but simulation-wise not much improved (aside from some new tracks). Being that its the...

    I just want to say Google ads has this demographic down!

    Cusco 1.5 way LSD

    OK, you're right the RS's springs are what determines the initial preload. The MZ uses a cone spring (they call it a cone plate in that picture). Basically with the MZ, as the cam wedges the two halves apart the Cone spring gets compressed even more. With the RS, as the cam wedges the two...

    Hmm, I need to setup a charity... how many miles are on it? Still driveable? Will those awesome wheels fit on my MK3 :P

    finally!! stock clutch is gonzo

    I'll go the opposite: stock pressure plate with an upgraded disk. No need to put any additional strain on the thrust washers when a feramic disk/stock pp is good for 450rwhp... Raptor Racing sells a nice package -- check vendor forum

    Sway bar Testing

    Do you remember who you talked to? I called and talked to some lady obviously just browsing through the current catalog (she said they only made it for the 93-98 -- I didn't feel like mentioning they still made them for the 82-86 as well).

    Cusco 1.5 way LSD

    Good eye, I think you're right. It's after 5 here, but I'll call Nukabe (Cusco's US distributor) tomorrow and see if they can confirm that.

    RIP 308 mk3's.

    There's a ton of cars on that list that don't even qualify for the program. CRX, Aspire, etc -- they get better mileage than 99% of new cars.

    Which Radiator is better?

    Half true, since it doesn't fit perfectly with the 7m shroud, which is what your car probably came with. But I've made that notation a little more accurate now. Seems that way -- I'm not sure at what point it becomes too dense for enough airflow, but I doubt the difference between 17 and 20fpi...

    Cusco 1.5 way LSD

    After reading that MotoIQ article, I'd get the RS. As for engagement... Basically what I mean is how much torque is needed to lock the differential. When you're grip driving around a corner, you'd like the outside wheel to be able to turn a little faster than the inside wheel. If the...
