Does anyone know of a AWD dyno in the Tampa Bay area FL?

 

yeah maestro subaru on w hillsborough. they have an open dyno like the 3rd saturday of each month and if i remember it was like $179 for 3 pulls. that may have changed though

 

Oh cool, thx bro

So how do u like your evo? i really can't wait to get mine...i ll miss my ITR tho

 

no problem. im loving every minute of the evo. i've had it since april and everyday im as happy as i was the first day i got it

 

by the way do you meet up with any of the crowds on the weekend. i know in the regional forum someone is always trying to get a gtg going but it never smeems to work out. i drive around some nights just looking to hang and meet people but most of the time friday and saturday are dead.

 

yeh i know what u mean here in sarasota/bradenton fridays and saterdays are dead, it snothing like 2-3 years ago ( probably because of the new law on street racing).

But it would be great to meet up on week ends and cruise, as soon as i get my Evo and my friend his srt-4, i l let u know and we could go cruisin ( bruisin )

anyway did u ever run your car at the track?

 

yeah man sounds like a plan. no i havent ran at a track yet. im not too partial to drag racing. if there was a road course around id be all over it. but since there is not i have been considering going to bradenton motor speedway just to satisfy the urge to run. even if it that means drag racing. it would be better than nothing

 

yeh that s how i was when i got my ITR at first, since i am from europe i am more into road racing and rally, but drag racing had to do. When I'll get the Evo and before i go to the track i ll put the ACT clutch in.

 

i hear ya man. road racing is just more interesting to me. im shopping around for a clutch now but the thing is im not sure if i want to start modding now and throw the warranty out of the window or wait until april '04 (1 year) before i start to "unleash the beast"

 

installing a new clutch wont void anything...clutches are not covered under warranty anyway

about power adder if i were u i would wait till u know how to handle the car stock very well an post consitent times

i have heard conflicting stories. i have that a clutch will void the warrany but i have also heard contrary to that. i know that OE clutch is not covered under warranty. i thought the aftermarket would void any other drivetrain or tranny warranty

 

look at it this way, with a good clutch and good driver there is noway u ll damage your tranny ( i talk form experience here)
I blew up my ITR tranny around 20k miles and had it replaced ( $3000 mind u ) after that made a lot of modification to the car, i run high 13's on street tires and now i am at +40k miles and my tranny is holding up better than before for the simple reason i drive my car better and never ever grind gears


to me blowing up a tranny means the car was driven like $hit

On the evo even with a bad driver it should quite difficult to damage it from what i have heard

 

true true....high 13's?...nice work!!!

 

thx, and it s ALL MOTOR
