That tranny is still in the car. Had to combine parts from my old trans, the gears from your trans, along with a new syncro.... So far it has held up just fine. I did realize there was a sheared off bolt in one of the rear trans mount holes, I didn't realize it until it was completely installed so I have been running without it since the 2007 convention! No issues thus far.
Thanks for the welcome guys! I will likely host another meet at my house this summer and have all you guys down for some food, drinks, and general geekdom. |

| Welcome wes!
I was lucky enough to get a ride in the evil twin on Pocono south course. Very nice ride, well setup track car. |

| Thanks Josh! Your B13 daily is a blast of a car to drive as well! Heading to the convention this year? If so you need to go out with me on race rubber! Car is crazy now compared to what it was at Pocono! |

| Bump for wes - article on MotoIQ - cooling upgrades: http://www.motoiq.com/magazine_articles/articletype/articleview/articleid/1632/project-200sx-track-ready.aspx
Thanks for the track ride @ MidAmerica Motorplex! It was a hot day, so amazing to see the low oil & water temps on your gages, while pushing the car hard on track. You need a g-force meter, lol! Even with a really good harness, I had to hold on pretty good in the corners!

Thanks again for the bed and shower! I owe you dinner/lunch/breakfast or the meal of your choice!!!
I hope to make it next month. I had an oil leak on the back of the block my last session and am trying to sort that out now, I also had a drivline vibration that is either axle or wheelbearing related. |
