Long time lurker... (new video added)
 
UPDATE

Here's a video from Sunday of this past weekend in Cumberland, MD. The course was very fast on both days, and the run below was good enough for a 3rd place in Street Mod. I was beaten by a Camaro and supercharged Mustang, so I'll take it (and you may be able to tell that I was a little excited).

It was also my first time on R-comps (v710s), so I'm more than happy.

WARNING - THE VIDEO IS LARGE (7MEG)
Sorry for the size, my normal video capture and compression software isn't working. If you want to convert it for me and send it back to me to host, I'd appreciate it.

OLD POST

Just thought I'd introduce myself. I've been reading on here for a long while, but never posted.

Here's a quick video of my car (the non-Porsche) on course, and me looking like an -------.

Thanks for the comments, good or bad...

The reason I have this car is because I needed an AB car while I worked on my C-Prepared race car, but I autocrossed it and slowly threw money at it. I'm upside-down on it, so it's not worth getting rid of, and the 34mpg is very decent considering current gas prices.

I'll work on getting video without the music. I didn't put the video together, so I have to shoot an email for the raw footage.

The car does oversteer a little right now. I just made the switch from Azenis RT315s to the Kuhmo V710s, so I'm playing with the suspension settings and air pressures to get the rotation back. It has great throttle lift oversteer, but the rear could be a little more loose everywhere.

The Scoupe manifold could have worked, but anything bigger than the shitty T15 gives you clearance problems. That, and the cost of the manifold keeps going up. Some weld-els and my welder fixed all of that.

Here are some more pictures:

Turbo and manifold before I installed the external wastegate (had to get it on the car to find the clearance problems)

Here are some pictures of the turbo in the car. I just ran out and took them in my parking spot, so it's a little dirty, but it will work for now.

Good work man, I like seeing something different.

I'll never know how you guys know which way to go driving around all those cones. I'd love to try it, but I swear I'd go the wrong way and knock them all down.

That's a bit of an understatement.... There is some stuff out there, but for the most part you can make what's out there but for less money. They do race the car in Australia, so there is some stuff from there. Also, the car shares it's suspension with the Tiburon, so you can steal things there.

Thanks again for the comments.

Tiburon swap?

I have the Tiburon front brakes on the car, and coilovers from it. A lot of people swap in the 2.0L Tiburon motor, but I probably won't go that route. I'm looking for a Scoupe GT block. They are 7.5:1 and have oil squirters and everything from my current 1.5 will bolt right on.

Re: Long time lurker... (new video added)
 
if ppl can do the 2.0 swap why don`t they do the 2.7 v6

Did either of you see that engine bay? Looked like there was barely room for the 1.5 :P
