Time Attack @QR 12/2/15

[OLDIE]

Car is being converted to coilovers with uprated springs/shocks so looking for less push and a more neutral car powering out of the corners.

 

[OLDIE]

Are there any members going to the morning session??come and say hello if you are .

Picking car up tomorrow and looking forward to see how if turns and feels.

 

[OLDIE]

Car is much more responsive to steering input and feels more stable in turns on the road so hopefully this will lead to better grip on the track and make for earlier powering out of turns without the front running wide.

Sounds good.
Only a couple more weeks to get ready.

 

[evo-gsr]

It's my 85 JB STARION that I have had since 92
FYI there were less than 250 sold here and less than 20 known left It has a JA bonnet that has the vents opened for airflow and a JB rear spoiler and an aftermarket front spoiler with ducted air to the centre of the Evo4 discs with a built 2.3 TC

Ian91 , Rob Chapman tunes it

That's correct

I've read about you an ya car, about 2-3 years ago,
It was only when I saw ya comment about being less than 250 sold an fewer than 20 known left that I clicked, was a nice car when I last saw pics, and as much as I do love a good rotor, I'm glad ya son got ya in a Mitsubishi, having knowledgable members with hands on experience is what makes this forum so good,
Best of luck for next weeks event too

Also, Do you mind if I share the article, it's a cool little write up

 

[OLDIE]

That's OK by me

Nice one. I like that it has a 9" bore x 9" stroke (230 × 230mm)

Looks sweet as oldie. I like that you can get a bit of lip on the rims.

 

[4piknup]

That works out at 38 litres of engine. Woohoo.

strangely its 2331 cui, rather than 2300cc. Must have pressed the wrong buttons on the calculator.

 

[evo-gsr]

Nice write up.

 

[OLDIE]

Thewre were a few typos as they didn't run it past me before they wrote it up .
It is 2323cc as it was bored outto the max oversize recomended.
