Is that a chop shop in ur Garage or are u just happy to be in the forum. Look at all that stuff, Is that an S4 in the back near the OIL drum, i think i even see a pink toyota supra with gay strips all over it.

Enjoy talking your crap. Audi TT's are still slow and still suck. I am good up to 160mph never said 245. Your words don't bother me, cuz your the flake, I just like the humor you guys bring. All our racing stuff got auctioned off as racing is not profitable any more. The cars are sitting in an elevator cell 50ft off of the ground. Soon the finance guy will see those on his books and put the order in for them to be crushed. So sad for 600whp on 2200lbs.
Yes I am aware autocross is for slow drivers. Thats why they dont' drive at high speeds because its way harder to driver at high speeds around bends.

I lack respect for organizations that rip people off and make you wear helmts to drive at slow speeds. I am surprised they don't charge $5 for every cone you hit to. Now if I was the manager of the SCCA and taking in all this cash I would love it. Your money should be spent on your car, not going into some fat cats wallet.

The lack for attention in racing will cause you to lose your sponorships. Sponsors don't pay for cars racing with no viewers. Why do you think the IRL and Champ car series joined into one. I got out of that engineering in the knick of time. So many people loss jobs and teams needed less vehicles and less crew members.

I have already received my H & R red springs to go along with Koni sport shocks 8710.1377 F 80.2818 R
I am looking for a brace bar inside engine compartment to replace stock one.

So far how does this sound for a suspension set up I am replacing all bushings F & R either with Powerflex/Steve's
and what comes with bars.

if you have had yours Revo the limiter is taken off who knows how fast you can go.

also, 350z's have a limiter of 150 mph for years 03-07 I believe with the 08' with the 3.7 liter it went up to 160 mph.

Do you feel I am headed in the right direction with the suspension????????? Thanks so much for the feed back.
Its not governed to 150mph when you got 20" rims on an 18" rim car with ecm cal

dam dawg, u only do 160 in ur tt? i be going around 185 24/7 bro. ya bro i wit u on da scca stuff, its only fur rich people. im poor like u bro, i got my whip lower by cutin dem springs, i put dat borla exhaust on cuz it wuz cheap bro, and i did a diode mod cuz i culdnt aford a chip. real racing is on da streets bro.

Let me guess your one of deutsche bags who got a degree and started a little speed shop and think your automotive engineer making crummy parts for cars. Such as brake kits that relocate calipers and then don't use the proper steel with the proper heat treatment to stop the relocation bracket from fracturing under normal use. Because your little engineering shop lacks the ability to perform proper finite analysis. Good things people depend on those parts with their lives.

Or your one of them know it alls with LED lighting. Ya man we will just through in current limiting resistors. Then our product will burn up. Then some mechanical engineer will get the bright idea to put a fancy heat sink on the LED pack assuming thats lowers the thermal resistance from case to air will solve his problems because the problem must be with that thermal resistance. Another fix is to put an even higher value resistor and reduce your lighting output.

Nah your probably just one of those people who buy this aftermarket stuff with a lack of engineering.

In case your wondering how to proper design LED lighting for automotive use you DO NOT USE CURRENT LIMITING RESISTORS. An amature engineer does that. What happens is some engineer uses nominal values and then wonder why it burns up. Thats because these LEDS sit through extreme ambient temperatures. The PN junction will drift its voltage drop changing your current through it causing it burn up. In reality its the thermal resistance from junction to case you need to cool, but that is pretty much fixed from the LED manufacturer. The proper way to engineer LED lighting is to use use active current limiting. You set your current threshold by placing the LED in a cheap feedback loop typically using the feedback of a voltage regulator becuase they are dirt cheap. If you want your lighting to vary with your dimming switch, you use a transistor to control the feedback ground current. This way as the LED/diode voltage drops shifts with temperature your current is always in a safe operating range.

But I am sure your professionals already new that since your so smart.

Ya you can build one fast car, I can always build one faster with more money. When it comes to building a few hundred thousand cars, leave things to the pros. Enjoy the SCCA, they swindled me out of enough money. Just a bunch of jealous people because you good at handling cars at low speeds, and wish you were good at high speeds.

If you saw the satellite photos of where I work you would think its a theme park for cars. So enjoy the parking lots and cones.

I imagine go smaller or leave it stock. Use adjustable shocks instead. 2nd place D-stock Nationals last year was a guy with a TT Coupe (either '02 or '04, but first gen, 225 hp)
