I am the second owner of the kit!
however the turbo has only 3k miles since february and I've replaced all oiling hoses, bracketry, wiring harness, vaccum hoses, ducts, silicone couplers and hose clamps with new ones back when I had the rx7 store install the turbo in the car last year

^ wait, wait, cars on that track? I race go-karts there, i mean it is wide enough but not for drifting, and you'd be running some ridiculously slow laptimes, its just not designed for that kind of use.

It does not look like any room for error. If you lose it going too fast in the straight, you are screwed.

But, driving on a track is always fun. I just wouldn't go full out.

yeah on race day if its wet they have people take their cars on the track to help dry it out, through most of the turns you have about 6 feet of leeway, and if you take the long track its about 7/8 of a mile long, i'd rather drive another hour and go to lexington to get on a track

Hello Again

What's up all,

I know I didn't make it to the last event (sorry) but I am still looking foward to seeing you all someday. My work has been a bear, and has loaded me down, (among other things). But, I finally got around to messing with the 8. I put on Tein S-Tech's last weekend and today, I just put on my first and second coats of Zaino. Wow, what a difference! Now I will just have to take some pics tomorrow and post them so you can see. I am not done with the suspension yet. Maybe some solid bars, and billet end links, or some Koni yellow's! I just don't know. I am starting to get busy again at work, so I will have to see. I am just hoping to make the next meet. By the way, I am tired of people with busted Honda's telling me my car is slow!!!
