What kind of carbs? Mikuni 45's, weber 45 DCOE's?.....That setup sounds wicked on an inline 4.....

 

[amwalker]

actually, its gonna be efi now. nissan ka24de tuned by jim wolf technology. i had a single weber 40 on a cannon intake on the stock L16 (perfect for downhill canyon runs, but anthing else was no fun) , but i need more power for my driving events and more reliability.

If you are going efi, that is the setup tp run..........

You can never have too much power; right, young Walker? Any idea how much RW numbers you will be putting out, and exactly how featherweight the car will be? I am just trying to figure out what it would turn at LACR? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :rolling:

when i have access to a digi cam, but no pics till its done...really ugly right now. about 180-190 to wheels, around 2200-2300 lbs. not really a speed demon, but should be killer in the twisties.

 

[stang99]

So, about 10-11 pounds/HP with you in it? That should turn a prettty stout 1/4 with the correct gears.
What are "twisties"? Did you mean Twinkies? Never heard of "twisties". Must be a new fast food product. You young guys always are the first to get in on the new stuff.

Twisites are roads where you drive slowly enuff to turn. Real men go so fast, turning is impossible:rockon:

I saw the "twinkie" yesterday. Man adam is so ghetto he used a 4 pointed lug nut wrench as a fan and a chain as an engine mount. I didnt look at the tranny for fear of finding an egg beater attached to the driveshaft on its place, causing me to laugh until I pass out. Current challenges include fitting a radiator in the already tight quarters. I should suggest to Adam to use a pair of flashlights instead of the stock headlights to give some more space. If budget is an issue, I have some candles you can borrow. I also have some xmas lights you can use for signal/parking lamps. Got plenty of red and yellow and if you feel a bit ricy, I have others.
You would have to get a 12vdc to 120vac converter so maybe using red and yellow hiliters would be cheaper

Adam,

You goin get your stop watch out and run that thing in any NASA events this year?

 

[amwalker]

nasa, redline auto events, speedtrial usa, tcra...as many as i can do, plus all my drifting events and a few passes down the 1320' for kicks. my goal is to have every weekend filled with an event. it won't be too hard, considering i have 1 or 2 drift events a month.

Is that all you had to give up? I am going to have to give up food and beverages after I retire, not to mention electricity and such. Fortunately, out here in the desert, we don't cotton to such luxury items anyhow.
