Emissions vary from county to county, but around here, it's visual inspection of emissions. So they look for a cat/airpump/etc etc. But that all depends on where you go.

Where was everyone? I stopped by for a litlle while at the track today i seen zachs car,brians car,andmikes car but no people!I tried getting the 7 up there but once again it needed oil dumped in it so i didnt even bother,being i would have to do it again once i got ready to leave the track,unless i left it running the whole time,which it was a little to warm for that.I have 74 miles on it(break in sucks),im going to get it runnning first thing in the morning and just drive all day long.I hope it starts on its own soon this pouring oil is getting old quick!

Wish I could have been there today, had to do the M-Day thing in Gloucester.

Good news about my a/c though. I picked up a R134 conversion kit last night to see if it would work at all, charged it up today and it blows ice cold. I just hope there aren't any slow leaks for me to hunt down.

By the way, this hot weather sucks for boosted cars, i can tell a huge difference in this hot sticky weather.

How bout it sucks for NA's. My car can't breath during the summer. It sucks driving it.

Good times at the AutoX. Dave we were working if we weren't by our cars. I talked to your dad a little.

Me and Mike switched cars. First time I've driven a first gen, and I got to drive it as fast as possible . I am very impressed. Excellent turn in properties, decent power for the weight, and limited slip kicks ***. I can't wait to get mine on the track now.

I think this year our cars decided to be angels during winter, and are going to haunt us during summer. Oh goody, at least I'll have money to fix the problems.

i forgot you had to work the track(duh).You still looking for a 1st gen zach?I went to my mother-n-laws house yesterday(in BFE)on the way there theres a gold 1st gen.,im not sure what year but it dont look likes its going anywhere for awhile.

I might have been at the store when you came by. Me and Carter (ididoth, my friend with the black 90 vert) went to the store up to road to get something to drink. That was my first autocross, and it was so awesome. I didn't race or anything, but I got to ride in mike's car. Wow. I'm looking forward to the next one.

Also, I recorded the afternoon heat. I'm in the process of editing the video now. I should have it done by tonight or tomorrow.

Well here's the video http://brianmcd.no-ip.com/Videos%20B...%2011%2003.wmv . Right click and save as for best results, because my cable modem is too slow to stream it. Please gimme any feedback you have; I appreciate it. I tried to get the music to synch up to the video in this one. I think this is my best vid. Hope you like it.

Since it got quiet for a day:

Nice video!

hows the microtech coming joe?Im going to drive my car all day today and put some miles on it.

Zach McAfee

Ok, I give up. Why doesn't the vid work for me. I've tried it on two different computers.

onepointone

look zach, you can either loose to me, and have the video work, or beat me and suffer with no video... its doesnt work both ways

Josepi

It runs.

However, I need to set my timing and hunt down what may be a vacuum leak (my readings at idle bounce from 20"-18"). From what the search button has revealed to me, 18 is a good number for stock ports...so I'm happy!

Another issue I have to deal with is that the boost control solenoid (elec controlled bleed valve) is now out of commission (no wiring for it...can't seem to figure out a way for the ECU to control a switched ground to have a cut on AND cut off point...) so I'm boosting a powerful 2-3 psi @WOT thanks to the cats.

That's the big stuff...small stuff like toss the cruise and wiper wiring back in, clean up the wiring mess with looms and ties, put down my rear carpet so I don't keep getting gassed (ohhh man).

To do list:
MBC
Custom TID
Cold air box
*maybe* rig up the AUX fan...keeping an eye on temps
DP/MP combo
maybe some pretty gauges once I get an alarm...

sounds like you coming right along joe,you gonna dyno?AED opens the 30th.I drove my car today,got 289 miles on it and it still wont start on its own i have to dump oil in it everytime(im starting to get pretty quick at it and less burns on my hands)this sucks,and to think i have 1 more im going to have to break in.The A/F ratio guage quit qorking on me today it was showing green all day then it went to red and stayed there for the rest of the afternoon,i richened up the S-AFC and it made no difference on the guage(P.O.S.)Im thinking from the 550 inj. it runnning so rich,maybe it coated the O2 sensor with carbon?

Zach, I couldn't get the damn thing to work either, I tried downloading **** from microsoft but it still won't work.

Anytime ya'll are playing HALO, call my ***. I am thinking about getting an x-box, that game is badass.

Josepi

Halo does kick ***...I rented it and got through 2/3 of the game over a weekend...

Anybody know of a place to get injectors serviced locally? I'm getting a hesitation right where the secondaries kick in...

onepointone

pm 85gs. hes the guy i got my car/13b from, i know he had injectors cleaned and balanced. he might be able to refer you to a place.

Heres some pics of my car https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...hreadid=186775
its slowly getting better,but oil is dissapearing,after talking to rob im going to check my O.M.P.

Zach McAfee

You don't need Halo, you need Haltech.
We're probably gonna have a few people over tonight BTW. Beer pong, drinking games, the usual.

ok its wmv file meaning its official microsoft media, the file plays just fine with me but thats becasue i have just about every video codec in existance. Download windows media plaer 9 if you already haven't. Then try

www.divx-digest.com and see if you can find anything there

l33trx7

And bring my hat back when you come too!! Leave it with Joe and I will get it from him sometime.

Josepi

How ya gonna find me?



I'm RARELY at the address you got...

In a few minutes, i'm going to be uploading a datalog from my trip into work (trying to pinpoint a damned hesitation...I changed one setting and it got rid of two points of hesitation...) and posting it in the microtech section...i'll link it.

Good news, I'm running better than 13.5/1 at all times it seems (cept on decel). I start to dip into 12.7-9 once the boost gets to 3 and sometimes 4 psi (must be getting better with the fuel and timing...).

Josepi

Here's what a fancy datalog looks like
