i go to Fontana, it's about 20 bux to race all day and you have to wear pants and pass a safety inspection. If your car is stock and your battery is still in the engine bay you should pass no problem.

ha yeah tell me about it...I just pulled my motor out a few days ago and i just pulled my cylinder head off. Everything looks good! Just like your other TT engine, my ka still had the cross-hatch marks on the cylinder wall and the carbon build up was not bad at all considering I have 140,000+ miles on this motor.

I'm gonna try and get my car going in about a month but we'll see how that goes. LMK what's up

dude this is gay, i'm fixing my car finally and then your's is out for a month at least! gayness!!! so you're not going to go sr then? whats your motivation for keeping the ka? also me and kenny were trying to find you're el mirage video where is that s*** man?

lol but yours will be out for another month before it's driving anyway right? Just by looking at the condition of my motor, I can get this thing cleaned and slapped together in about a month or so.

The sr is more expensive (at least 2K swapped in, almost 3K for the s14 sr) and thats only about 170-180 whp...it'll be cheaper to rebuild this ka (probably as cheap as 500 bucks?) and run 280-300 whp with my current setup. I've even done some custom stuff to my brake master cylinder just to run the top mount t3/t4 and it'd be a waste to go sr. Idk, if I had a choice of a ka-t or sr20 in a race against say a TT z32 I'd go with the ka-t lol

that el mirage vid was on my myspace but i deleted it so I guess its gone now, it's still on my computer tho

Gah, I need to check back at this section more often.Spooled, if you guys start getting meets going again, can you pop in and tell me in the KA thread?

I can finally trust my car to go on the freeway without overheating, so I'll probably go to local meets more often.
