Um, no... I would mop the floor with a S12 in a B13 on a course.Dattebayo wrote:Too bad it would lose to the same driver in each.
Didn't you have a Miata? Why not bring that?HashiriyaS14 wrote:This thing needs to make it to a FATT once it's cleaned up.
If Dave does it, I promise to go with, although I'll be in an auto-trans TSX unless I pick up something else. My by-then pavement scraping (and probably still 4AT) Cressida with 6 degrees of rear negative camber will be mind-bogglingly unsafe on a circuit.
Don't i/c/e it or a exhibition of speed ticket might come your way.The sr's are quite fun,wait until you get into the corners,they handle surprisingly well.Quite a few people on here gave me chit for saying they handled well but with a maxima swaybar and strut tower braces they handle damn well. Also the motor's respond well to cams don't go huge though.You can build those top ends to handle 9k fairly easily as well.Dattebayo wrote:I wish "more modern gas tanks were honest about where "E" truly exists.

I have less than 12 gallons usable to me.
Also, I may have not wanted to get this car, but DAMN is it a blast to drive! The acceleration after 3K rpm is way better than the VG was! Too bad it would lose to the same driver in each.
New electrical demons surfaced, no longer getting it inspected tomorrow. That is all!

I didn't post it in Gen CHat. I posted it in the cemetery that is the Transverse SR forum.AppleBonker wrote:Tech questions don't belong in gen chat.
Yeah it's called the gas pedal. When I feel idle and bored, I go out and hit that sucker and fly around corners. Also, women's clothing gets blown off.krash wrote:does it have some sort of idle controller?
my idle was the same way, it kept going up and down.Dattebayo wrote:lol
If it were the idle controller, the car would either not idle or idle very high. Plain and simple. This is erratic.

The B-13's are 4x100. Not 4x114.3. The B-15's are 4x114.3HashiriyaS14 wrote:AHEM
Who found it again?
Super glad that you picked this up, even despite the fender issues. It looks super choice. KEEP IT NICE!!! Your cars always seem to end up multi-colored after a few months![]()
Needs low and some period-correct wheels. Too bad my Black Racings are 4x100 and not x114.3
Can't wait to come see it in person.
Well sheeeeyit. Dave, I've got some wheels/tires this car NEEDS, lol.TOMMY VERCETTI wrote:The B-13's are 4x100. Not 4x114.3. The B-15's are 4x114.3

14's are worthless for street tires, the selection available for that size is garbage. Finding decent sizes in 15's is hard enough (where the only 225 worth getting is a RS3), but for 14's it's non-existant.HashiriyaS14 wrote:Well sheeeeyit. Dave, I've got some wheels/tires this car NEEDS, lol.
Black Racing:
They're sitting in my garage with new rubber on them. 14x6.5 + 30 or something like that. They'd looks boss on a black car.
My serious auto-x rubber is very different than my street tires. My r-comps are on 13's and 14's (as you can get Hoosier A6's and Kumho V710's in a large selection of sizes), I'm just talking about normal everyday tires that I can also use for HPDE's and PDX's.HashiriyaS14 wrote:Yeah, I guess it depends on what you're trying to do.
I didn't have any trouble finding tires for those or for my new 15's, but I also wasn't looking for serious auto-x rubber.
I'm looking at some 14" Starsharks right now, so good to know about the rubber, but I just want something I can stretch the snot out of anyway, so I'm pretty flexible.

It's not a missing vacuum hose and it's not loose wiring. I tested both ad infinitum. I have replaced the wires, plugs, cap and rotor and the issue is still there, but just more clear what it is doing to the RPMS. If I rev it hard and then let the engine decelerate, it will stumble into idle just before getting back to the same old idle situation again...
