Unless you've larger injectors installed
you can only set the mixture

Hmm, maybe

John Christian...David Skultety...many others...I bet

Of course, doing it

quotient study? It
could be a King of "Gatherings"...we'd drive there in
our various 3000GTs and
Stealths;I have a new enclosed trailer and an old

other before, who got together
such an effort mostly by Internet--whose
commonality
is 3000GT and
Stealths! Talk about an unlikely group to do such a thing...
It could
be great, just the attempting it! If we were able to actually
FINISH
the
whole race running, we'd be WAY ahead of the curve! What place we'd
be in
would be mostly unimportant, it would be the DOING of
it...
Would have to be prepared with lots of spare brakes, tires/rims,

the

Active aero removal question....
Most people have said that the only
functional part of the VR-4's (I
personally have a 1992) active aero system
is the front air dam (which was
constantly getting stuck on my car). My
problem is that I am trying to do
something a little on the "custom" side
regarding an intercooler for my car,
so I have completely removed the plastic
underside and the motor that
controls it.
What happens now is that the
"aero" light comes on in the dashboard as soon
as the aero system disengages,
and dissallows further use of it until you
reset it (turning off the car,
removing key, re-starting). Does anyone know
a work around for this? I'd like
to still be able to use the spoiler (if
nothing else, because I like how it
looks...)

Brian from GT PRO has a mold of the 1st gen hood
taken from his own car.
It's possible to create some ducting or scoops but
the problem is money-wise
related. It's a larger pre-investment by any
reseller to let the hoods been
made (some of them at once to keep the initial
costs per hood low) and then
selling the $1000 hoods is not that easy. I
think if he's getting an order
of ten he'd do it
immediatly.

Important Getrag info (must read!)
The Getrag gearbox and transfercase
have been discussed here hundreds of times.
I was driving ~110 km/h when
I heard a terrible grinding sound from under the car and the rear wheels locked
up. I managed to get the car to the side of the road without an accident. I'm
very glad that this didn't happen in higher speed or in a curve because if it
had then I probably couldn't be writing this...
There is a myth going
around saying that the "mighty Getrag" can't be fixed. To kill that myth I fixed
my transfer case by myself. Total cost for repair ~125$. (Mitsu qouted me over
2000$)
I have documented the whole "operation" of a Getrag transfer case
with pictures of every part and also references to part numbers. Read all about
it on my web page http://www.3000gt.nu (click

- ---> 23 is ONLY
momentary..... as above "I get a fuel cut reminder". I'm
also in
third in the carrosell at anywhere between 65-80 with partial
throttle.
Just before the apex I start squeezing the throttle to WOT. So
the
boost increases rapidly and I have to remember to modulate the
throttle
before I get a fuel cut reminder. FC is no fun especially near
the limit
of tire adheasion in a turn. Definitely increases the pucker

- --->No fancy
stuff. Just a pressure regulator for manual boost control, a
track
exhaust and a K&N. And as of last week new plugs to go with the 13gs
I
installed two weeks ago.

- ---> 18-20 did not seem to be a problem on the front straight.
But
remember --- this is not sustained for a looooonnng time as number one
turn
comes up quickly. The front straight [distance between
13(hairpin) and
1] is probably <1/8 mile. Yeh, that's about
right cause I'm coming out of
13 in second, shift into third, hit about 100+,
but start braking for 1
before I hit redline.
Perhaps the difference
is that I burn Sunoco 94 and use a liberal amount of
Octane booster. As
I found out the cause of the orangeish/redish color of
my plugs.

Subject: Team3S: Re: Team 3S: "Track exhaust"
Hi
all,
My track exhaust is in two pieces and just as long as the stock
exhaust
system. The downpipe is about 3' and the rest goes to the rear
bumper.
The downpipe attaches directly to the front turbo and to the rear
precat.
"Someone" must have removed the stuff in the rear precat. The
primary is
about 2" and goes into a collector. The rest is 3" with a
Dynomax
(muffler??). Some racing clubs/courses don't permit OPEN
exhausts.
Unfortunately there is no flex coupling (YET), so I have to repair
the
welds in the downpipe frequeltly.
Does somone make a flex
section similar to the stock downpipe???? I
don't want to cut and use
the stock ones as I have to reinstall the stock
exhaust system to pass PA
emission inspection every year.
The track exhaust is very light compared
to the stock system. As I recall
the downpipe was about 4 lbs and the
rest was about 15lbs. The stock
system is hanging in my garage and I'll
weigh it after lunch and post.
I've heard 100 pounds is worth .10 sec
in the 1/4 mile.
The pownpipe has a high temp coating by JetHot which
reportedly reduces
under hood temperatures. When new it did look real
neat.
SOUND It really isn't TOO LOUD. I drive it
to and from the road courses
pulling my tire trailer and never been
stopped. Just have to avoid WOT.
I also drive it to Church
on Sundays...... Low mileage used sports car.
Be of good
cheer

Yep. Here's one biggie: What kind of competition license do we all need?

If
everybody's stint lasts for a tank of gas, then each stint would be
about an
hour.
If we have four drivers, that's six stints each.
Sounds workable
to me.
If Jack donated the CRX to the cause, and three others each kicked in
$800,
that would be a race/prep budget of $2400. That should buy two
sets of
tires, some spare parts like brake pads, entry fee, and...what else
do we
need?.

Therefore the exhaust is single sided, isn't
it ? It's a real exhaust what
you have but of course only for track useage as
the cat is not there.

When was the last test you have done ? With or without rear

Yes, any aftermarket exhaust without cat
and flex sections is much lighter
compared to the stock stuff. An option for
you would be to have an ATR
test-pipe and cat handy. Both will simply be bolt
onto the 3" piping with
clamps. You can cut the piping somewhere after the
joint where the dp ends.
The ATR stuff just slides over the piping.
Replacement / changing can be
done pretty fast and you don't have to care
about the air and the test with
a good high flow
cat.

I can get 3" flex sections in any length you want. They are

Team3S: VPC for sale (3S cars)
Ok, since my upgrade path changed slightly
I'm selling the following :
HKS VPC with :
- - 91-93 3000GT/Stealth
harness (must be changed for 94+)
- - 4 Programs (all for 720cc Denso
injectors, yellow top)
1) VPC-W80 (720cc)
2) W80
+10%
3) W80 +20%
4) W80 +30%
- - boost sensor (special
3bar sensor, better resolution then Denso)
- - plenum temp sensor
- - GCC
I (5 potis, same look/size as VPC, brandnew in box)
Some smaller parts I
do not have are:
- - Barb T fitting
- - Tee fitting
- - clamps for
hoses
- - NPT adapter for air temp sensor
(I can get them in the local
shops if you want)
To make the VPC work on 94+ cars "only" the harness
must be changed as the ECU
connectors are different. Nothing else have to be
made but don't ask me more
about this (I just don't know).
I'm also
able to get you a 550cc program for free if necessary but no
further
modifications are possible. Also a DSM EPROM is possible but you'll
have to get
a another harness from HKS.
Please note that each
individual program was about $90 as well as the special
MAP sensor is another
$100 (my own R-TEC upgrade). Therefore, the price I paid
for everything about
a year ago was about $1480 (already a special price)
As it was
test-installed once I'll let everything go for $990 (sniff)

--------------------------------------------------------------------
I
think this is a fair price as I don't want to make money out of the
stuff.
I myself have verified that the stuff works and it looks almost
new (the GCC is
new). Please also note that shipping should be paid (about
$30) by you and
therefore a friend in Europe will mostly benefit of this (the
VPC costs $1850
here, if availale) My local customers do not go over any
boost
controller/exhaust mods.
I also have a Blitz SUS Power Filter.
This is a metallic mesh filter without any
element. It's a piece of art, big
and I also got a round adapter that fits the
rubber intake part after the
MAS. The adapter is plain aluminum and would look
better polished or so. I
would have to create another adapter as it interfers
with the water injection
pump I just installed and I have currently no use for
it (it doesn't fit the
stock MAS)
I'm asking $280 for the Blitz SUS including custom made
adapter.

---------------------------------------------------------------
I'd drop
the price another $50 if both are taken together.
For payment I do accept
checks but would prefer wired money. I do also have an
account for my shares
in the States but this costs me $20 per money transfer. If
you're in so.cal.
we also can figure out direct payment to my friends and I ship
them the
package. Null problemo.
If you have further questions, please send me any
emails privately. I can also
take some digi-pics of the parts you'll get.
Please also note that I send this
message to the DSM parts trader, the 3S
message board and the Starnet list
(should I really ?) and add it for a $50
higher price.
To be honest, I already made a big loss (some of you
remember) and I cannot go
lower. Therefore, please only reply if you accept
the pricing.
Happy modding
