I scanned through this post as much as possible............Did you buy a WRX, Ted? :?: naaw, I'm a car sluttt, I'll drive anything friend of mine sold his Mustang and bought a WRX, said If you want to autocross it, come get it, just put the street tires back on it when you are done. still need to h...

I don't recommend seriously drag racing unless you can put an STi gearset in it. I have heard going to 1st is a NO-NO. what are the other problems with the trannies? Davd used to tear out the output yoke on the Talon regularly, why he sold that one. It's been 10 years since subby manual transmision...

WRX is so heavy would like to get as much tire under it as possible. I was thinking go straght to coilovers so rates can be changed easy. Just found your post with the rate conversion, all that metric crap. :lol: what lengths are folks using? I saw one post about 8"F and 9"R. I prefer all ...

thanks.. I learned how to spell NASIOC before you made your post :roll: :lol: spending my lunch break there. It's had wastegate and I think 3" downpipe- exhaust already, maybe some more. Nothing much for suspension yet. He said no problem with me driving it as he has to work most weekends and I...

Yo Chris… I need to find setup info for a 03 WRX, kinda quick, how bout the hookup maing? Best places for suspension, rims, knowledgeable folks , etc. has to work for both autoX and drag racin

On the 2900 lbs 98 Jetta, 8” x2.5” diam, 275#front, 350#rear with a stock front bar, and decent sized rear bar (can’t find the diam and ground is soaked) Those rates may be a bit too stiff for daily driving on a lighter Rabbit. The Neuspeed progressive springs originally on my old daily driver Sciro...

The rates in my 98 Jetta might be too much for a light 83 Rabbit unless you are gonna road race the Rabbit. I'll have to double check spring rates at the house. also, how much you planing on driving the Rabbit on them lovely NJ roads? I know them, I've driven there. Hopalong Vischer with shocks??!!!...

I've got a 323 GTX I am looking to get rid of. Needs an engine, which I also have. It also has rally tires on one if it's several sets of wheels amongst it's countless spares. It can be the uber rally-x machine. just let me know where it's at and it could dissapear in the middle of the night.. if y...

I may have to come out and test the STX Diesel there..

yeah, I spent a lil bit extra money on the paint. No cheap Krylon. I used rattle can Rust-oleum.

I hate you....

A "minute possibilty" of losing a $2000 set of wheels is still an appreciable risk. Dang dude, your rims cost almost as much as my whole SM Scirocco. :lol: I admit Terry's cheby bolt patern rims would be more desirable in that neck o tha whoods. Does Adesa have any kind of video surveilla...

I'm going to try and find a co-drive with someone in a Nationally prepared MINI and just pay their entry fee. I prefer to save my own tires. :D but Curt, you need to find out how your car stacks up to them nationaly prepped cars. WB would be a bad place for that... I say you need a codriver to spli...

I've been questioned on some other forums bout the track. Any new news other than the local gov ok'ed it and we will belive it when we see it??
