Glad you enjoyed the thread, careful mixing your grain and grape! Just making sure you realize that my stock motor died long ago.

Swapped out my old plugs. This is after an entire season of caressing my car down the track ( I never beat on my car.) Plus a couple months sorting my FF960 CA91 tune. Sorry for the crappy pic, just threw them in the box since they looked ok.

Well that sucks! Guess I am going in there again.


Is that interchangeable with a 5 speed piece?

Looks like they are both FE69-16-102A. So I have one in my spare tranny.

I think this was my own fault. Either some kind of grease incompatibility, or I just wasn't liberal enough with it. Always use enough lube, if there is ever any doubt about compatibility, remove every trace of old lube. That's what she said.

We're talking about lubed liberal trannies pivoting on my pin! Did I log on to the wrong site again?

For you Lars.


I am car 31. Car 83 is a supercharged Z06 that must have been spinning the **** out of his tires. My car hooked, the week after a huge drag racing event is always the stickiest.
In other news, about 43k on this MKTurbo exhaust now.


Kinda long in the tooth.

Thanks man, and thanks for getting me this so quickly too.



That sucker is beefy! I am actually excited to put it in, so I am going back in there before next week.


My opponent from the final rematch made good and traded me a 1st place trophy for a 2nd.


I was looking at my logs and that pass was at 87°F. I also took 2nd place last night.

Clutch disc works great!
This many 1/4 miles on my car now, like a fat *** dictionary.

Good question! I don't have a clue Lots! I think that is how much power I am making to the wheels now too.

Probably a few seasons worth of autocross events. Maybe more.

Do you really think that is a reasonable comparison?
