New Hotness

Posted 06-25-2009 at 08:42 AM by crimsondragon

If anyone knows, my BEP 50 trim died on me. Causes were overheating? Something to do with Swain Tech coating. Apparently it worked TOO WELL. Anyway, I've been running on a beater ebay 16g. I can hear it slowly dying too so time was limited. I finally got this in today. It's a Borg Warner S256 NET.

Because I keep losing track of shit I need to tidy up in the car I'll just make a list for the spring time or whenever the #### it gets warmer.

1. sunroof - most likely off track, complete disassembly and figure out some way to fix the rust

2. thermostat - overcooling

That's it, I'm done

I am officially broke. I have about $20 to my name. The last thing I bought were brembo calipers off an Evo 8. No more modding from this point on. I need to recuperate my losses. Time to go job hunting. With that said, I'll compile my list now on what's planned for next year.

1. ETS race FMIC
2. Evo Brembos w/ SS lines and rotors
3. Tokico Illuminas with H&R OE Sports...

God Damn Transmission mount

Posted 08-23-2008 at 04:56 PM by crimsondragon

On my quest to eliminate wheel hop and have stiffer motor mounts, I have been trying to finish my install of Prothanes. I did the driver side and front about a year ago. Those went in and out quickly. I started up again recently and did my rear mount last weekend. It was a pain considering the inserts totally did not fit and I had to burn the rubber out and fill it with construction grade polyurethane....

Picked it up from the UPS today. Love the polished look although it's pointless on the exhaust housing since I'm going to be shipping this out to Swain Tech to be coated. I do not plan on running a heat shield around this baby. Beauty and power like this cannot be covered.

*edit* Received back from Swain Tech. Great looking coating. I love it.

what a dilemma

Posted 07-22-2008 at 11:54 AM by crimsondragon

My goals for this summer to lose my track virginity. However, I want it to be great, just like any other devirginizing, if you know what I mean. Therefore, I've been preparing my car for a bigger turbo. Fuel system is nearly done. After this weekend, hopefully all I need left is 850cc injectors. I have DSMLink, my EPROM is chipped, and I have a Tial 38mm on the way. However, I recently started truly...
