Well , we drove 25+ hrs and went down in a blaze of glory.... but not all is bad...


#1) The RB25 turbo took a crap the weekend before we left. The car is now sporting a T3/4 Hybrid 60 trim...

#2) Ran the autocross with NO power and still managed a 45 sec pass on shitty Avon tires , FTD was a 42.. The car has potential. keep in mind we had never driven the car before more then 2 miles...

#3) Philstubbs helped tune it with crome using ostrich and holy ---- this car is gonna be fast. We hit a very choppy 17 psi and the car fly's. Spools at 4500rpm. The vitara/ TT rod motor runs strong.


I am going to run again next year with the same mechanicals , but with a southern car. (Still an EF thou) So for now we are gonna tune the hell out of the car. The fastest import was hooligans colt which put down a 11.6. Im pretty sure a gutted EF can beat that..but it will take practice.

I think we have a bad injector. The car went from running great to an A/F ratio of 8ish that was un-tuneable ,but we could realtime mod other parameters..so I don't think it was ECU.

So right now I am lookin for injectors for the car, and a new EF that is rust free to swap the stuff over too. Most hondas we bone stock motors with small turbo's running high 12's.

What did this car run in the 1/4? And what place did you finish overall?

DNF!!


the A/F went to 8-9 and Scott couldn't tune it out... Im thinkin injector failure..

already looking for a set of 600+ cc units for the car. The T3/4 needs something more manly then a set of 450's.

NExt year I am gonna run the t3/4 for the drags and put on a smaller t3 for the autocross. Nothing says I can't swap turbo's
