[325ix]

I like the way you guys think! I would love to throw my ix in there!

[Eric]

So I just read the rule book, did I get most of the mods allowed?

- Shocks are replaceable up to double adjustable
- Springs must be stock length, but rates can be changed???
- bushings can be changed
- offset can be poked out up to 6mm
- no restriction on tires other than no full on racing slicks. Stock width though?
- Harness can be added

Pretty much. motons/jrz/ast triples with upgraded monster front sway and a6s.

[Eric]

sounds like a blastyblast! With fresh LSD's in the ix, I bet those things would rip on a6's!

Bushings can be changed, but you can't increase the metal content IIRC.

Spam spam spam spam spammity spam spam spam.

An exhaust shop in Australia is of less than no use to those of us in landlocked Colorado.

"In the top left corner of this video, you can see the reason why you should never buy a car with semi-trailing link suspension..."

But seriously: Nice run and footage. I'm jelly.

cool vid! Ever think about disconnecting the rear swaybar? I disconnected mine, and have been pleased with the handling.

that'd be sweet to do. I'd really like to build a car within a set of rules, not just throw parts at it like the E30. Too bad I already have too many cars :(

You should get the E30 classed for NASA Time Trials, and come play. It's a great group. You can also run GTS with NASA if you want to go wheel to wheel.

The GTS rules are as follows:
Car Weight / horsepower = Class
...
That's it

[Roland H]

NASA FTW. Need to finish school and acquire baller-status first though.

I'm not ready for wheel to wheel racing yet, but the time trial sounds cool! Looks like I just add up all my mods to see what class I go in? I'm probably bumped into a class that is WAY faster than my car is! haha.
