The more things change, the more they remain the same ROFL

As car enthusiats, we know how valuable it is to have a track facility nearby to explore the limits of your car without getting into trouble with the law. For many years, Dunville Autodrome has been a valuable resource to car enthusiats in the northeastern US and Ontario, Canada.Due to...

This is for the enitre aftermarket A-arm, or just the ball joints that were sold separately (or both)?Thanks for the heads up.

Anybody pick this game up?Tried it last night, I'm impressed. It's a good mix of RTS and first person/3rd person. In addition to building and commanding all the various units (ships, fighters, subs, etc), you can also personally take control of anything you build...

Good job Tim! I wish I was there!

I copied your bulletin in the MidWest Regional section of DSMTuners.com. Hopefully someone can bail you guys out.

As you know, we have a team of DSMTuners.com members competing in the One Lap of America being covered by Motor Trend Magazine.So far, they placed well in the skidpad, and were running 2nd in class!Today they have run into some issues.If anyone near cincinatti or florence kentucy...

Wet Skid Pad results are up.

They are Greddy Gravity Gullflames.

That's what the DSM community is built on, the next guy is supposed to go one step further ;)Thanks man :thumb:

I designed and built a similar setup to Broads72 about 4 years ago that I still have in my GSX:Sealed unit with everything (amp and sub). Fully removable with all the wires, patch panels, and RCAs using quick disconnect molex plugs. I can remove the entire setup in about 3...

1)Yes, I'm going.2) No, not driving the DSM3) Not planning anything special before and after.

You may want to consider adding Calabogie Motorsports Park and Shanonville to the track list.Also, you might as well have all the track variations in the track list right off the bat because there are MANY track events that don't run the full courses due to scheduling or $$$$ (VIR and...

I think all the spare parts go in the back seat with Mike. :)...or they probably will just hitch a small trailer and throw everything in there.

No I did not recommend Sportlines. Eibach Sport Pro-Kits (1.2 inch drop) would be the ideal spring in this situation. Dropping the car 2 inches would be silly, especially in the Tri-State. I'm not sure why you are even bringing up Sportlines, since they were not even a part of the discussion...

As someone who lived and drove in the Tri-State (NY/NJ/CT) area, make sure that the springs you pick are PROGRESSIVE springs.Honestly there isn't any reason to stray too far from proven setups.I would also consider Eibachs. Eibach Sports are very good, providing a nice aggressive look...

You could just save yourself the time and hassle by finding out what the offset are of the wheels you are trying to test. Stock EVO wheels are +38mm. If the wheel you are trying to test is +38 or less, it will fit. If it's more ( +39mm and up), then they won't fit.

Very.Assuming that something isn't broken and you just missed it. Just because it drives straight doesn't mean something isn't wrong.

Some of the stuff may be hard to see just by looking. Typically, if any boots are ripped, or if any grease/lube is leaking, you will need to replace it. Unfortunately, many of the boots and such on control arms aren't sold separately and you have to by the entire control arm. Usually the part...

Bang for the buck, it's tough to beat the quality of a Compustar system. Plenty of features, including built in turbo timer, pager, and more. You can add programmable solenoids for anything from trunk poppers to window/sunroof switches, the list goes on and on.The hard thing is finding a...

Having a vacuum pump definitely helps when you are on your own. Gravity bleeding goes a bit quicker though, if you have a friend to pump the pedal for you. Definitely make sure there is no air in the system (that's what the problem seems to be from your post).

I started working on this again, trying to beat it on Veteran.

Damn, I still haven't played Gears of War 1 yet... better get off my ass.Is Gears of War 2 easy to learn or should I just wait until I play the first one through?

MY buddy picked this up, and it's pretty amazing. The scaling of the track is as close to the real thing I think as you can get in most instances. My only gripe with it is the cost. You will end up spending close to $200 or more once you start getting into this game.One of the cool things...

I would have just taken that old caliper to autozone/napa/advanced auto and gotten a remanufactured one. You would have paid $30-40 bucks at most, and saved yourself a ton of headache. Plus the remans have lifetime warranty. Anything goes wrong, (i.e. they rust up) take it back, get a new one :)

Bikes are cheaper than you think, if you know what to look for.

Thanks!

Crashing on the last session of Day 2 was a bit of a bummer, but I learned from it.1) Don't try to clip the curb that tightly 2) There's gotta be an easier way through WilsonWilson and Temptation are my weak points, so I decided to get the bike back to riding shape so I could have a chance...

Monday night was spent patching my radiator with a waterproof epoxy that did the trick. I also changed all the fluids that night. Started her up, and it held pressure up to 194 degrees F.Woke up early Tuesday morning, ready to see where I could find some more time on the track. Tuesdays...

Arriving at Calabogie Motorsports Park, around 6:30pm Sunday, My buddy Mac and I set up shop (EZ-Ups, tools, bikes, etc. etc.) and performed a pre tech inspection on our bikes before we turned in. We met up with a few other guys and gals that we knew, and I began to pick up some tips on riding...

No it's not true.

Apparently profits are way down, so I don't quite get what you are saying. If people don't go out to support the series, how is it supposed to run?Signs of the times.Everybody is feeling the crunch, it's not just NOPI. SCCA stuff in certain areas is down, hell even the giant NASCAR is...

Dyno Dynamics is definitely the way to go. Once you get setup with the AWD Dyno, you can get the motorcycle attachment ;)

When I said rent dyno, I meant YOU rent the dynotime (assuming it's reasonable), and YOU tune the car. That other guy never gets involved. You just rent the time you need. Win for him, since he's not responsible for tuning, win for you since you won't have to shell out $$$$$$$ for a dyno and...

1)The welding/fab stuff will be an asset, as will the track setup so definitely go for that. Plan your advertising carefully. If you do good work, word will get around.2)Incorporate so you don't put your personal finances in jeapordy in case of business failure.3)I wouldn't spend the...

STAY OUT OF BOOST!MAke sure all the maintenance stuff is taken care of: O2 sensors (Very jmportant), coolant temp sensor, plugs, wires, clean air filter, fuel filter, check for all leaks (boost, vacuum), etc. etc.

Fidenza Flywheel, ACT 2600 Street Disc here, held up great at all the tracks I went to. Also have TRE Custom Tranny. The setup works fine, but like they said, if you can get a lighter disc, go for it.

Try not to break it this time. ;)

LOL I had no idea there was a place actually called WNY in NJ.

Just so you guys know, we have a list of Race tracks, dynos, etc. on the DSMTuners Tristate front page:Tri State DSM Club - DSMtunersI'd like to keep this list as current as possible, so if you know of any new dynoshops or tracks opening up, send me a PM with the info or a web link and...

Fredonia, you are close to Buffalo.Check this thread:http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tri-state-dsm-forum/292808-resolved-why-has-dsm-scene-buffalo-died.htmlI just posted the info you were looking for in there.Plenty of stuff to do.

These guys are very good :thumb:

Moved to 420a turbo conversion forum.

There is plenty going on in and around Buffalo. Things tend to pick up when the dragstrips open, and the weather gets warmer. You just didn't know where to look. :)RochesterDSM and WNYDSM for sure, plus there are a few guys on the Niagara (Canadian) side as well. Rochester DSM has monthly...

Keep your head on a swivel. Good luck in the sandbox.
