    Autocross Build '99 gsx CA road race build

    what are your goals for the car? just track days for fun, or are you trying to fit into a certain class of a certain sanction? myself I like a higher rev'ing road race car, means less time lost shifting. If you are planning on building the head etc. eventually I would stick with the 272s.

    Road Race Build Super Lap Battle Cota bound

    Yes using the eps column from a Nissan versa. The install has been super easy so far, I was able to pull the telescoping part from the factory column and use it on the nissan part so splines matched. Then made some brackets to mount it to the roll bar as the factory dash bar has been cut out.

I have been busy cutting...

    Race Recap: So as some of you that watched the live stream saw, we were plagued with unforseen issues with the car...Friday was practice.. I could not have asked for a better experience during practice. The Talon was performing flawlessly, so much so that we had too much aero for the stiffest...

    Been a long time, but finally started to make progress on the car. After A K&N oil filter came apart inside the engine I went through the long process of trying to get them to cover damages. Long story short they admitted to the filter coming apart but refuse to pay for any repairs claiming...

    2G Road Course oil starvation

    So I have since installed a 3qt accusump. I have been able to make it to several events with 0 issues since the install. I do agree that this is a temporary fix for the issues I was having and that the end goal will need to be a dry sump once the aero kit gets installed... I have recently...

    greengoblin's AWD Project

    I went from the frame rails as well. I need a better deck lid for it though once I get my V2 kit installed to balance everything out.

    1G Pulling the block and transmission together

    Assuming your downpipe is already removed, Transfer case is 5 17mm bolts, remove those and wiggle it off the output shaft (may need to lightly pry in multiple spots to get it to begin to slide on splines). once off the trans, you can slide the transfer case off the driveshaft or just support it...

    2G Carbonetics AB Hood (Pictures)

    Yes that is with the timing belt cover on. I run a clear HKS cam cover as well and there are no fitment issues clearing the cover. I even have enough room for my spark plug wires to run over the cover without rubbing on the hood.

    2G Carbonetics AB Hood (Pictures)

    I know mine is different due to the fact that it is the V2 version and has the large vents added to it, but I believe it is from the same mold as every other V2 AMB hood that he sells. I can say it fits with the stock bodywork, so to the best of my knowledge it is the same.

    Thermal coatings: How well do they hold up over time?

    I had my manifold thermal coated but was not impressed, not sure if it was done right or what but after the first track event it started flaking off.... I think maybe the prep process wasn't done correctly or the surface had some contamination before they applied the coating. but needless to say...

    yeah there are only 220 Nobles in the U.S. and from what I can tell only 135 of those were M400 models. Mine is chassis number 142/220 they use a ford duratec 3.0 with a couple turbos. they send it to roush for the tune and throw it in a 2340lb chassis. Mine is still mostly stock with basic...

    My new toy (Noble M400)

    I have custom wheels on order for it already, the stock wheels are heavy and one had a crack coming from the lug hole, so someone over tightened it at some point. so the new wheels will be 8lbs lighter a piece, should make a huge difference!

    I am planning to safety wire the bolts that hold the turbo to the manifold myself, they constantly vibrate loose and blow gaskets... I know you are using studs, but should fix it in either case.
