Qman

We( Qman & Zapar) did an interesting experiment. We ran two cars in the AM. To do this we had to run points first then T/O second. It hurt our points times but allowed us to run 4 runs in very fast conditions for T/O. Basically we had 4 runs in while the rest of the competition had only ran 2 runs. Glad we did it but I don't know if we will do it again.

On the bottom of the page is a tab for the other classes.

I will try to get a list but in the mean time check for hotel/motel in Shelton. BTW, camping will be available on Friday as well.

Looks like the faulty ones finally made it east. I have run the large Accell's without any problems in both of my Brat's. I won't run the cylindrical ones though. I have an MSD coil in my XT6 that seems to be working quite well.(still running) Biggest improvements can be had from a correctly tuned engine and improved exhaust. After that the gains are smaller and more expensive.

Very cool Ryan!!

If you have rub issues I wouldn't recommend running them in RallyX. You will rip up the tires or your fenderwells. Street tires will allow you to run in PGT. Pretty much any other tire will put you in open class. If you are not sure where you want to run you can run for time only and run what ever you want. You should be able to pay at the registration. I haven't gotten any notification of the event being full.

No, I didn't approve it, someone else did. Unfortunately, we don't get paid to this and most of us do other things besides sit on line every hour every day. Heck, once in a while I even sleep!

You put this here because you are impatient. It was visible when I logged on at 7:00am.

Mark, I can be to your place around 9:00am. I would like to get there and settle in a bit. Maybe get a chance to watch others drive or to chat with a few people. Let me know.

2" will help the flow. It won't be much gain but it should be slightly noticable. The Y-pipe will provide all the back pressure you need so you can go with a high flow turbo muffler.

If you want hunting quiet go with the turbo. Anything else will have too much noise to work for hunting. Keep the Y-pipe the same diameter as stock. After that you can open it up a bit. This will retain back pressure and allow it to flow. I have spent big $$ on exhaust systems over the last few years experimenting with different set ups and sizes. If you have the time and money I can recommend a good guy in Sumner(east of Tacoma). But, he isn't cheap. For the entire system it would run about $300.00 with a turbo muffler. Magnaflow's, cherry bombs and glass packs are noisier mufflers designed to have a distinct sound. The turbo's are designed to be quieter.

Correct, the 3dr has a unique ws. The molding is also different. It has the cupped edges that are supposed to aid in keeping the water from the ws out of the side windows. The other models do not have this type.

How many times have you been to Hillsboro?

No way do I want to chew your dust cloud. Let's use class finish or overall time from the last rally X to determine who goes first! Qman 6:10 2nd Xsnrg 6:49 1st 84 Brat 7:32 1st JQ 8:00 2nd Rallyroo 8:19 8th Edrach 9:08 3rd Sorry Matt, looks like you may be eating dust either way. J/K I don't know if I am going to get there at the crack of dawn or not. I am running in the afternoon so I may get a little more sleep. It sort of depends on the family also. They will be coming with me since we are going to Hillsboro directly following the rallyX.

Downforce? These cars will not ever experience downforce! Do experience downforce it will require much more sustained speed than almost any EA series car would experience. These are purely cosmetic.

Could you go in to detail of how you installed the belt(s)?

Yes, definitely remove the bottom bolt from the shock. That should allow all the room neccessary to remove the axle. Half the battle is getting them loose. If you can loosen the two rear bolts enough for the diff to have a bit of movement that will help as well. Worst case scenario is to remove the three mounting bolts for the diff drop it down and remove the axle. Then reinsert the axle with the correct orientation. Slides on in any spline but the pin will only go in one way. If you look at the axle and the stub you will see that one side has a slight recess in it. Match those two up and the pin will slip right in.

Roll your fender lips flat or you will keep slamming the tires under suspension compression. Once rolled it may be just fine.

I don't mean to come across as harsh but this is the West Coast Subaru Show. He could bring it but it(the Sami) may not get past the gatekeepers.

I might suggest that you relocate them to the top of the bumper. Considering you like to drive fast on the logging roads and such. The first dip in the road hit at speed will probably eliminate them quickly.

It should be on a tag on the front top of the bellhousing. It may be stamped into the case as well.

Hmmm, I wonder why it only lists for the Pathfinder. Is the offset housing different than the older centered diff? BTW, good link Mike!

Hey Morgan, just join up. Same registration process as here. They have an old school forum there and also some region specific forums as well. Granted most of their membership is new gen but they also appreciate the old stuff as well. Besides, they are a little freer on the topics allowed.
