yeah thought about that but feel like the clutch isn't holding once it get up and goes right now so we will see. could be the tires letting go too.

Unfortunately, I may not be able to bring my DSM, we put in the new transmission this weekend and it will only shift into 1st and 2nd, I am in the process of figuring out the problem right now as this was a fully funtional working tansmission before it was in my car. I will for sure be bringing the WRX down though!

Goodhart mess with the cable adjustment under the shifter, I was in the same boat until i messed with it, quite simple actually and it was the first tranny out of 4 that needed changing.

We (Myself and 95tsi) messed with the under the shifter linkage, we were able to get more side-to-side play and found fifth, but still couldn't get reverse. We tried two different reverse safety switches, and messed with the under hood linkage, but still no reverse. When we finally pushed it back into the garage, we heard some not so good noises, I'm hoping the transfer case isn't junk.

If I have much more trouble with it, I'll just start a different thread.

Is a large intake pipe in the way of the shifter levers on the transmission? I had this happen with one once and the car wouldn't go into reverse until I "clearanced" the intake pipe.

[scheides]

Ya, or the lower radiator pipe....I had trouble with that on my 2G.

[goodhart]

Thanks everybody, I'm pretty sure there wasn't anything in the way,but I'll have to look more into it this weekend possibly, as the car is at my parents house like 50 miles away.

What kind of bikes are you guys bringing? I will be getting mine finished up here in another 2 weeks.

Prepare to be pwned by an 85 Yamaha cruiser.

[A//// Guy]

Haha 89 GSX-R750, jetted and piped.

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

haha Mine is an '06 Suzuki SV1000. Just an air filter, and slip-ons.

[TalonFiero]

Haven't decided if it will be Talon or Evo or none as of yet. My Evo will make 320, 345, or 375 its always different.

Talon I haven't dynoed since Elite, lol.

What clutch are you running in plastic fantastic? I have tried five different ones and the spec puck sprung stage three worked the best by far. Then again that was damn near 10 years ago.

I also couldn't tune carbs worth a damn, so I had a holly 750 for drag racing and an edelbrock 650 that worked well for mpg but not as good at WOT like the holly. I could swap the carbs over in 5 minutes or less. lol

I keep throwing fiero parts out, maybe I should just give them to you! It would be nice to see that thing at the dyno day.

[turbotalon1g]

^Run the damn talon, then you can upgrade and see how far you have come. :O)

[scheides]

So, still only one person signed up!? What's holding people back, last year we had 15 people signed up at this point. Is it the pre-registration? Using the other site? What?

We had ***30*** cars to dyno last spring! Sign up people and let's keep this event strong!


We've got trophies, prizes, food, entertainment, what's not to love!?!

I was contemplating it, but at this point am not really sure if I want to considering I just dynoed on the same dyno a few days ago. If it was at a different dyno, then I'd consider it. Plus I'm not even sure if I'll be here, or in Fargo that weekend yet.

One other observation is that the price is up to $55, I'm assuming due to fees from that other site being used. I typically see $50. $5 isn't much, but $5 more then a dyno day another site is throwing, that's doing a dyno day at the same location. Maybe not much of an issue for me or you, but maybe a difference to those who are just scraping by. Just an observation, no idea if that's really a factor.

[twack]

Im coming, doubt my car is. I just dont want to mess with the other site
