Next week will be my "final mods" of RPS Street Max clutch and MWR Flyhweel!!!! Which will be installed on the following Monday or Tuesday

I think I speak for everyone when I ask for some dyno and track slips
;-)

I cant post dynos because I dont have any up to date. And I will be going to the track in two weeks the weekend after I get my clutch and flyhweel. Oh and one other thing will be a retune with the menthol added to the water injection and raising the rev limiter to 7000 grand or so.

I'd definitely love to see those track slips (though, I'd also love to see it all in person; you got quite the nice rolla ;-))

More vids of that with that sweet ass sound you got comin off of that would be great, too....

I will take some vids soon. any requests?

Hey, just wondering if those new tires helped you out a lot more than those 26 lbers.

you a drifter? taking a nice corner on video (how you'd pull that off video-wise I'm not all that sure...but you know) would be pretty sweet

oif you could get your video-recording friend to the track with you to watch your 1/4 mile run that'd be pretty awesome, too...

Some nice longer videos would be great, like a minute or 2 of showing off the handling and accelation. BTW, how much do you figure it all cost you, if you dont mind me asking?

I must say that car is fun to drive Tyler, thanks for letting me :wink:

Can't wait to see you raise the limiter and create some serious power up there :twisted:










*cough* you need an LSD *cough*










:roll:

???

sweet ride man! Its one of my favorites! :shock:

I am making less boost because of the header and mid pipe. Still more than stock though. And I will try to make some longer videos. Chris I have decided not to get the lsd just because i really need to stop dumping money into my car. I am happy where its at now especially once I get the clutch and flyhweel. I have a little over 15 grand into my car not all of that is on there because I have bought a lot and then replaced it with different or better parts waste of money on those items.

I'm just curious... Are you running the 8 PSI of boost on the fully stock internals?

yes stock internals.

what's scary about this is he thinks theres a point called "done" :wink:

Oh no it will never be done I am just saying I am done for now. I need to start saving money for the winter months when work is slow and money isnt coming in as much. I may think about doing internal work next year.

definitely take vids of all the parts if you can. I can use them for a model for my mods, and I'm sure others will enjoy all the worked you have put into your car.

Oh I also forgot that I do have the CF Engine Cover too I will try and get some vids soon. I want some of my friends mr2 and I racing from a roll. He had mid engine, rear wheel drive, and lsd so I have no chance off the line.

From a roll it's going to be a damn good race :wink:

I will be looking forward to it. I am pretty sure I will beat him from a roll especially with my lighter rims and then clutch and flywheel will help too. It will definitly be fun either way though.

might I ask what exactly you're into?
I mean, insurance + year old (I'm assuming bought new) corolla + 15k of mods is a *lot* of money for anyone...
you say money not coming in as much during the winter....construction?

Well Yea I bought the car new and my insurance isnt to bad. I make 60 grand a year doing sales and the slower time of the year is in the winter because I sell outdoor products. I dont have two many expensese because I am only 20 and have a little rent, car payment, and cell phone so I have a large disposable income.

your car is looking great. probibly where mine would have been if i got the 5spd over the crapy auto. Get some sweet vids. find a large empty parking lot. get some vids of the car in and out then drive it around. some smoke to start would be sweet. and i realy miss the sound of that supercharger. i cant wait till im back in a car i can mod.

shit, dude. nice
I've been thinking of getting into sales (I did cheesy non-commissioned sales during high school, and it appears as though I'm about to lose my television job come the end of the month)

let's just say we're all jealous, both of you and your car
though, personally, I'm not a fan of your tail lights. I think that's the one part of your car that just....doesn't bode well with me. I think I like the painted tails better on the black...

You would not think that if you saw it in person. SOme of the pictures dont do the tails justice but everyone that has seen my car before and after likes the tail lights better now. I will try and get some video soon just need someone to take it.

*cough*
you have 2 different tails in your sig there
the far left pic of the 3 has different tails than the rest
whoops
lol

Yea.... I have the black ones now the other two. Which ones dont you like?

I'd have to say I'm slightly jealous of Tyler's mods. Sales isn't my thing but I make enough in my job to get me by. I'm using Tyler as a model for my future mods....

Your getting there..... just need a chip and unichip and a few other small things. I will let you s/c guys know how much the clutch and flywheel helps and that could be your next mod. I am thinking it will make a big difference in terms of acceleration and landing shifts faster. I am hoping my last grand of the year was money well spent. Next year I may think about building the engine up and getting a custom pulley and belt to run more boost. Not sure yet would need another car first. I will see how my insurance looks.

Some exhaust clips would be cool, and just standing revs.
