    A.J.'s SL-C build thread

    All the hose / lines seem to be steel braided so FLEX shouldn't be a problem.

    Torque Converter/Electronic Automatic Transaxle?

    He said he did NOT want a true automatic! Now if you put all of the electronics for the Porsche units in theory you could use the pdk system. NOW I'm sure that some of those high end paddle shift systems could be programmed to do Paddle Shifters, Sequential and Electronic - ASaP

    Torque Converter/Electronic Automatic Transaxle?

    Talk to Fran about the Graz. unit as he KNOWS what is involved. I believe it entails notching the block a amount and in an area that doesn't have any effect on the structural integrity of the block. Seems like there are more than a few Graz. units being used so SEVERAL people MUST have figured...

    signal lighting

    couldn't you make the same thing with any light with that stamp on it? I mean just deck the back apply double sided 3m (or get fancy with magnets and pins. Think connection pins for removable cell phone battery) and your choice of power supply and there you go. Clip on for test (this is where...

    RCR's Next car should be.....

    It's like the BRZ & FRS; This is just well ..... If they buy the kit from Fran which nets him his $ at the end of the day thus proving his platform is gold than I can see why Fran doesn't really care. Personally I would be livid BUT Fran is a better man than I.

    At least they left the RCR symbols on (LOL).

    Torque Converter/Electronic Automatic Transaxle?

    As for the 4 wheel drive isue why not ask any one of the numerous SL-C owners with Gaziano's (something about trimming block to clear out shaft but don't quote me on it. It's been discussed here before)in them as they seem to have that pretty much buttoned up at this point.

    Torque Converter/Electronic Automatic Transaxle?

    What difference would it be to the electronics if they were upside down or not? That entire argument is rubbish. So long as the actuators are placed properly it doesn't matter if they are placed while standing on it's head.

    Torque Converter/Electronic Automatic Transaxle?

    Scott I'm going to assume that was a joke or you are just a tool but either way THIS site is all about component cars and as such there are MULTIPLE THREADS (not to mention all the dedicated trans axel threads in here) about this. In case you are not a tool and honestly didn't know than let me...

    Torque Converter/Electronic Automatic Transaxle?

    There are a group of guys over seas that took the M5 V10 and chopped up the trans to make it a trans-axel to fit into an Ultima. It is running the OEM electronics which is a HUGE deal if you know about BMWs. I have posted the info on here before with link...

    Air intake tube routing for the race tail?

    Seems as if I WASN'T WRONG and some feathers should NOT have been ruffled. I asked a legitimate question about aerodynamic (and in this case the lack there of) theory behind such an OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW and well here we are. Lets get something straight and put some in EGO CHECK TIME. MY build...

    Air intake tube routing for the race tail?

    The question is if the vent will vent the air which if there is positive pressure (as I have been stating the entire time) than how in the world is the air going to do a 180 degree turn when the air on the top of the car is (in laymans terms) pushing down as well and thus when the air runs over...

    Air intake tube routing for the race tail?

    Again the air coming from the vents is moving in the opposing direction of the intake and IF that is creating your desired effect than there is no need at all for the opening in the back of the cowl. I just asked a question about design theory and posed my concerns and when the Kamm tail pic was...

    Air intake tube routing for the race tail?

    In the illustration above the air is still "attached" to the UPPER body where this cowl is and it illustrates the air moving in the opposite direction and actually goes to more to prove my point. He would have to draw air from BEHIND the car as most others do BUT this takes air from the top and...

    Air intake tube routing for the race tail?

    Admittedly I know nothing about aero BUT wouldn't Al's design PULL air out (air has to reverse direction to enter intake) ? Wouldn't a NACA duct supply smoother air and more volume? I know MAF's (at least in BMW's) can be very touchy.
