I really want to do a 2.2 also. Thank thing is just awesome. Also thanks for all the info the wedssport wheels, I have the same set now, they look awesome.

 

Thanks man. I'm really happy with the 2.2, good power band and low vibration. No problem on the wheels, glad you are happy with them.

 

TC105N are awesome wheel
Relatively affordable, light and look great
What kind of spec did you went with?18x9.5?

 

17x9. I was looking for a really good looking17x9 and that wheel is the win.

 

Agree. 17x9 et35. 15.5lbs Added a 3mm spacer to clear the front brakes and running a 255/40/17 tire without any modifications to the fenders at all.

I chose the 17x9 since I like to keep rotational weight down as much as possible. This is easier on the drivetrain and makes the car a little faster. It seemed to me that a 255 sized tire was lightweight, inexpensive and all I needed for compared to anything larger.

For reference , wheel and tire on my scale is 37lbs. A stock bbs with bald 235/45/17 was 40lbs.

 

Is it a must to use spacer to clear the front brake?

 

Yes with 17". IIRC the 18" does not need them.

 

Updated 1st page with battery pic.

 

Tim's Evo is a great example of a car that was built for numerous things! keep it up man! this thing is a beast

Im actually trying to get a hold of EFI to see if they still make the battery tray. I think my Miata battery is reaching its end and i would like to go up in size now but i need to reposition the battery. hopefully i can get one.

 

Man, I am jealous of your cruising RPM at 80mph. That is awesome!

 

Me too!! I have a 2.4 4.11 and I have to double check but I feel like I am over 3500 cruising at 75-80

 

I've got Evo 8 ratios and 5th gear. This is 82ish

 

Attended the Street car takeover 4-10-16. Updated page 1

 

Nice work on the M130.
Did you use an off the shelf GPA/R package from Motec, or a custom package from JRR or similar?
Did RSP end up using a different idle valve such as a Bosch 3-wire instead of the factory 4 wire?

Cheers.

 

I'm still on the Infinity. Its been too busy to put the MoTec on. Yes, its the JRR package. I've talked to John personally a few times and he runs the M1 on alot of Rally cars out west.
Factory idle valve with the 2 red/yellow wires taken out of the connector.
