Well, summer must be almost over because I’ve already switched over to next spring’s mod list.

Anybody else already mentally prepping for Summer 2006?

What are your plans/thoughts?

Mine:

- Bigger Turbo (already have GT2871R .86 in the mail)
- Cams (HKS 264/264 Step II’s)
- Intake Mani / TB (Greddy or knock-off…maybe Q45 TB)
- Head gasket (Stock bore, stock thickness, just stronger)
- PFC Datalogit (maybe if the price comes down)
- 19psi+ (Oh baby)
- 400+ to the wheels on pump (Oh crap)

…and probably going to need bigger injectors too…I’m going to run out with the 600’s

Bah – that’s weak.

Whatever you are doing has been done before…many times…so just spill it.

Secrets are only relevant if you a doing some crazy R&D and the safety of the World depends on your so-called “secrets”

Let me guys:

- Rims
- Rollcage
- paintjob
- blah blah

Spill it!

oh there is enough R&D and the car will be like no other S13 on SON once finished… 😉

im going to be driving my car until it starts to really get faggity out as far as weather.

prolly into december for sure.

before winter i’d like to get this far:

Enthalpy ECU  
Z32 mafs  
550’s

i think for next year i just want to have a nice pair of seats and some fukkin disgusting wheels.

i’ll wait to figure out if the power upgrades i do will be enough for me or not.

after not having my SR for 3 months i tells ya i can see myself being happy with 300rwhp rather than not having the car at all.

also,

i can really really see myself snatching up a cheap SR’d s13 either in canada or the US for under $5000 and just modding it slightly for pure drift use.

not because i think i need a second car but just because i need to get my jollies going sideways and dont really want to hurt my coupe again.

plus it would be pure baller to say that i have 2 sr20 powered cars and one i jsut use to beat on…lol… maybe i’ll use it just for track use and as a winter car…lol

i’m hoping to cage the car this winter, along with a set or two of slicks.

finish the motor put it in real clean and spend a long time at the dyno getting her just right - and then not touching it again after that
