    • Seeing as the engine size and injection rate and type (double pulse to 3k then single pulse per cumbustion event, batch fired), it would be foolish to create a new injector for a standing platform. Especially one used in multiple markets.
      Trees aren't kind to me...

      currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
      94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

        In other news. My spare injectors are back from getting cleaned.

        Sounds like you weren't going too fast, you just experienced the speed at which things get fun. Find a place to safely learn how to toss the back where you want it, and you'll soon want better seats.

            Probably just a new supplier then. Supposedly they are made by nikki and the festy ones are made by denso. In all the pictures they look like the denso ones in a festy but are a different color and don't have denso markings on them.

            Too fast for the drivers skills not for the car lol. Looking back on it if I had stayed in it instead of going for the brakes I doubt it would have stepped out. Around February/March all the tracks will start opening back up and I can try to get into a hpde or track day.

            • Get a set of those sticky federals for your 13's before you do a track day. The Nankangs don't hold up well to track abuse.

                      I'm on Achilles now. Still have vibrations/shakes pretty sure it's from play in the LF wheel bearing . I may just get a set of 14" tires for my miata wheels just for track days.

                      exim "mesh" 13x6.5 +13ish. I forget the exact wheel model but they usually pop up for sale as "exim mesh".

                      In unrelated news the saab is back together and running better than ever..... Until it split a heater hose lol. Think it made it about 10 miles this time.

                            if you boys can get nankangs, they've got a new semi slick out that's not bad. unsure if they do it in a 13 tho...
                            I'll get back with more info.

                            • A few of us have been trying to get those Nankangs, I think TheAstronaut scored a set in 15". Hopefully we start seeing more off brand track tires here, I'm sick of giving Yokahama 200 bucks a tire for stickies.

                                When you spin the wheels, bolted to the car, how much run out are you seeing? These low offset wheels are less than friendly when they are bent or not true at all. I had a hub that ended up being bent on Pedro. I couldn't feel the vibration with high offset, but with my ET10 BBS wheels, it was unbearable.
