I think I've got about 5' of 5/8" fuel line somewhere in the garage. I'll probably just throw that on the return at the regulator and jump the pins in the diagnostic box and let the pump do the hard work for me. What could possibly go wrong?

The only remaining question is where to put the old fuel. I'm sure it'll mix well with the CA87 in the wifes Escape :giggle:

aidandj 09-26-2016 01:24 PM

Put it in the pickup

EO2K 09-26-2016 01:34 PM

Rear tank on the pickup is full, front tank I've been trying to empty so I can drop it and fix the sender so while the truck burns obscene amounts of fuel, its not an option right now.

That means wife's Escape or the WRX.

EO2K 09-26-2016 01:35 PM

Oo, or my brothers Toyota pickup! I'm sure he's down for free gas. :giggle:

18psi 09-26-2016 01:36 PM

don't pick WRX.

and really, ignore these guys talking about upgrades. I just want you to fix the silly stem seals you don't keep pooping up your pretty block and possibly ingesting a bunch of oil into the cylinders.

Yes. Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.


Move here and spend all of your money on race car things and beer.

Hey now, all I mentioned were seats and harnesses. Which is pretty reasonable for a track car with a shit ton of power.

18psi 09-26-2016 01:52 PM

bro, you're just not on his level.
stock seats, seat belts, 1 hand on the wheel and sippin a caramel machiatto from the other

G is waiting until I get around to replacing my out-of-spec seats. :)

Have you bought marcellos hot laps yet?

18psi 09-26-2016 02:10 PM

Nope. Only thing I'll be hot lappin is Gesso's ExoFish, and likely off track on some back roads or something.

someone give that man an mbc so we can run more boost than an average male fart :giggle:

aidandj 09-26-2016 02:11 PM

I've got a couple spare EBC solenoids kicking around.

18psi 09-26-2016 02:16 PM

I dunno how well ms2 handles ebc. It should work fine, but all the EBC's I've tuned were with ms3+

But you should bring ALLTHEBOOST parts anyway :)

aidandj 09-26-2016 02:17 PM

Open loop takes like 2 minutes to setup. I'll throw it in my box.

leboeuf 09-26-2016 02:18 PM

What do you do as a profession for realzies?
The promise land is always hiring. It's not quite as cheap as the mid west, but we have mountains and awesome stuff.
I think I saw somewhere you were going to defcon?
Masters degree? PM me if you'd like.

My supervisor just traded in his Audi S4 and bought his wife a Land Rover so he is stuck driving his 2wd 91 Chevy S10 until he picks out a replacement vehicle for himself. We've decided its the perfect recipient :giggle:

I'm trying to figure out if I want to leave it alone or try to swap them on on THURSDAY before MRLS. I fucking HATE removing the timing belt on the Miata, I always feel like I'm going to screw it up. I also fear making changes before trackdays.

I do seriously like that Pole Position. I would have bought one of the revised Pole Position NGs already if I could find somewhere semi local that has them in stock so I can see if I fit in them. What I REALLY want are Andy's Memoryfab S58 seats (or was it S68?) but those things have been out of production for probably a decade now. :(

18psi 09-26-2016 02:28 PM

Making major changes to your cars the night before track day is a tradition that you and Geoff MUST uphold.
Don't break traditions myeaw

@gesso, order this: https://www.amazon.com/Hallman-PRO-R...dp/B00IFWMQLG/ It's Prime so it'll be at your place on like Wednesday, and you can order the fancy in cabin cable like Andy at some point later.

I got really drunk and seriously considered it, not necessarily in that order. I know literally nothing about Nebraska I've never lived anywhere but California my entire life.

Monk 09-26-2016 02:38 PM

Nebraska sucks. It is Unholy hell.
Indiana is a much nicer state.
