S14 Race Car Update

[TM1]

@Sasha (Turbo)

yea this is the cars weight, my GOAL for the season is 2300lbs with me in it. we’ll see if i can make it or not, i’ll be happy if its under 2350.

greg, what do RFI signals have to do with the voltage going through wires? i could see it disturbing signals in other wires (although ALL season i didnt have a single problem) such as signal analog signal wires, but a spark plug wire is not a signal, so being close to anotehr spark plug wire doesnt really matter i would think.

I just find it interesting that out of the entire engine bay you didnt say anything except “yo guy your spark plug wires are too close together” but anyways no big deal i appreciate yoru input and ill look into it.

Adam i’m excited to see what the car does weigh, i coudl bring it up anytime next week that you’re free. We’ll just weigh it because im getting new coilovers and still doing a bunch of stuff so i wouldn’t want to waste your time with corner weighing the car.

Or we could wait until the car is totally done (after i get new coilovers) and weigh it, that would be in march or so.

RFI would cause a problem if you ran a helmet headset. EMI causes problems with signals being sent to the EMS from your sensors. As would any electromagnetic pulse. The other problem that could arise would be cross firing causes by “Induction cross-firing results from the magnetic field produced when an electrical current passes through a spark plug wire, causing two cylinders to fire at the same time. If crossfiring is allowed to occur, one cylinder has the spark plug firing ADVANCED 90° from the proper time.”
