I'm 6'2" with a 33" inseam and about 210 lbs. I fit ok, but have to duck my head to get into the car (which is a common thing it sounds like). The space inside is acceptable, but not what I'd call roomy. I'm comfortable though with the base seats and have done 8+ hour road trips without...

I have a 2026 base 3.0 version, so none of the FE options and my steering feels normal. I haven't driven other years to see if there's a difference, but I can say mine seems pretty sharp with no dead zone in the middle. If anything, I need to check the toe as it feels like the front has some...

I was actually going to suggest welding it. Small cracks like that are easily fixed, and you could even add some gusseting to the bracket that gives better support to the whole area. I only weld as a hobby, but that type of crack isn't uncommon in thin wall exhaust that gets really hot...

I designed and printed an intake muffler cap for the seemingly popular delete (pic below). This is supposed to make the intake louder, but really only removes about 1 lbs of plastic in the engine bay. I coated mine in clear coat to make sure it was non-permeable and no unfiltered air would make...

Don’t care a ton about sound. Was mostly looking to optimize inside the rule set and figured instead of $60 on a panel filter I didn't mind putting it toward a full intake instead assuming there was one that didn’t cause IAT issues. Building some heat shield and dropping weight was the main idea...

Doing some reading about intake panel filters along with general intake stuff, it appears like a stock tune car with a panel filter is fine, but there might be other options (full intakes) for slightly more power that don’t affect IAT. mostly it was me being annoyed there only seems to be oiled...

Hmm, good call on the safety thing. I have my safety options modified for DD, but full off is the way on track for sure. I'll have to look up the buttons for mapping options too as that would be easier. The C8Z showed all the data on the dash pretty easily, but this one likes to bury it's...

Given my experience with the Cayman and C8, I'm getting used to "press all the buttons" again vs the prior track cars so it won't be too bad. Sounds like the path is fire it up, put it in sport, long press TC, do the process to get temps on the dash, get TPS info up on the center screen (I was...

Shit, that's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks! I had bought one of the OBDII modules for bimmercode thinking I'd need to monitor it through there, but main coolant and oil is plenty for me. Easy enough to glance down on one of the straights and do a quick sanity check. Does it stay...

Fair point. I haven't checked the pricing between the two for fronts since I was only looking for rears. I'm a big fan of reasonable name brand front blank rotors for track as they really are consumables. I'd much prefer lighter stuff, but in the end I'd rather use the money to get out on...

Basically what you said. Given the socket style of the front suspension it was the solution to fix cars that couldn't hit target alignment. Also known as "crash knuckles". It's pretty common on autox cars in BS to get an extra -.5 degrees (or so). For people dealing with inbound clearance...

I've been floating around for a few weeks now. This forum moves slower than others, but has some good info, along with the usual static. Still, generally a good place. I got the pads, and thanks again for that! Right now I'm waiting on studs to show up, then I'll do the rear brake swap, stud...

I bought my rear premium sized rotors to convert my base to premium brakes from Rock Auto, but when it comes time for the fronts I'll get them from FCP. I used them in the past with the Cayman and it was always good. I have to imagine there's a lot of people that buy from them for the warranty...

That's a pretty cool design, and a nice way to spoof the rules to get around the OEM IM/IC issues with the precooler in the charge pipe. Them putting the oil cooler in the back like that seems telling about either the room up front, or that the front cooling stack was already somewhat...

interesting about the GT4 version. I had heard of other actual race cars using AC for cooling like that, but not to that level. It’d be cool to find out how much cooling is needed via that system or if it’s a mixture of a more normal heat exchanger with the ac cooler being for supplemental...

Congrats on making me chuckle. In the few minutes I spent googling it prior to my initial post I saw it was primarily focused on drag racing. Posts, including on this forum, pointed toward it being used for that, and the few manufacturer sites all refer to the same. There was one that spoke...

I haven't messed with them personally, but I only go to the drag strip a few times a year. That said, this is the first time I‘ve heard of it. Everyone else seems to just use an ice box (but also has probably dumped the AC to start). An interesting idea though. I’d wonder if Just having a...

The B58 is by far superior. Why do you think I'm looking to track a Supra vs an STi?

Sorry you felt like you had to nutswing and got called out for it. I'm sorry, I'll fix it to "also if it's much larger, it could be worse, as the OEM water pump won't be able to keep up with the volume". Do you have data to back up your claim that it won't be able to keep up with the volume?

I likely will when I get to that point. You're also talking theory though, unless you've tested flow and pressure across other cores. I definitely enjoy the data you post, but conjecture is still conjecture, and no one is above making assumptions occasionally. I've mounted radiators in the...
