WELCOME! Good to see a car put to the use it was intended for.

[speedblind]

Thanks! The car's been great for the last three years, and I want to keep it forever. Will need a new clutch soon though, and that isn't cheap! Also looking to get a B13 SE-R for DD/occasional track.

[wgnths]

half of us are looking for a b13 se-r, just no place to put it :lol: i still miss mine...

Hey, I remember running with you at NASA a few events ago. Remember when it was raining and like ten of us busted 360s :lol: The car looks very nice! HIDs are beeeeeautiful!

[Anonymous]

Yup, that was me. Lift-throttle oversteer is baad, m'kay.

I did get my suspension sorted out because of it though. Rear bar is set to the middle and I installed a front bar. Car is much less twitchy now. It was a handful in the rain.

[1bad_ej20]

that's cool...the rain was freakin fun though :wink: are you gonna run NASA again in Sept?

[speedblind]

Not sure on September, but I will definitely be running next year. Trying to work and move into a house will make it tough to hit the track for Sept.-Oct.

[1bad_ej20]

yeah, it's pretty expensive...maybe you should start autocrossing. that'll get you more driving time for cheap. it's not as fast or as much time as NASA, but it's still a good time. also, you learn some good fine tuning for driving that can be applied on the road course.

i hope to be out at nasa sept-oct with the 240
