Run groups and spacing permitting... If you are in my run group, you need to be at least 5 cars apart.

It was a very fun course. I don't like shifting down into first though...er rather, my car doesn't like it much. It only ground a little once, but yikes.

P.S. If anyone has any advice on how I can loosen that up (i.e. get the tranny to allow me to downshift in to 1st at a higher speed instead of locking it up at anything over ~10mph), offer it up. I'd really like to be able to get in to first at 15-20mph so I can stay closer to the top of my powerband while still carrying a decent amount of speed.

Survey Says!:
Redline Shockproof Lightweight. I'm using Uncle Scotty's Cocktail and it's only slightly better than stock. I can shift into first doing 25mph without revmatching or double clutching, etc but I have to be pretty slow with the shift. Everyone who runs the Redline absolutely loves it. It should really help you out J.

Today was fun. My car seemed to go into 1st better today...I'm sure me being slower with my hands helped a bit. I gotta say I enjoyed the course better yesterday for some reason. Great weekend though. Thanks to all that helped make it happen!

Go to Summit, buy fluid. It is on the back side of the first or maybe second rack as you walk in the door to the left. You need 3.7 Quarts. You also need a long bendy funnel or bottle pump to get teh fluid into the dip stick hole under the intercooler. Make sure tranny is warm. You just got back from Summit, right? Ramp or jack the front end up.(Use stands if jacking) Jack the rear up at the diff to make the car flat. 21mm socket on a 2' breaker bar + extension to break the plug loose. Rags, socket extension, etc. to protect your hand to undo nut & copper washer and not drop it into the drain bucket you are using. Let it drain while you clean the metal shavings off the magnet in the plug, open the bottles, put the funnel in place, . etc. If the turbo is still hot, Put a rag or two over it to keep from melting the funnel. PUT THE PLUG BACK IN!!! Put about 3.5 bottles in. Put the car on the ground, dipstick in and go drive it for a while. Come back let it sit a few minutes and check the level. Top off if needed. By the third -5th shift, it should be a different tranny.

Also if you double clutch going into first it will go in magically smooth. The owners manual says that every gear is syncroed , so double clutching should not be needed, but it helps. I've gotten comments AutoXing, and RallyXing how smooth my upshifting is..
under braking in 2nd gear I hang enough of my right foot over so it can blip the gas pedal, i stay in 2nd gear as long as possible, then i push the clutch all the way down, put the shifter into nuetral, i let the clutch all the way up (or i think i do) I rev match my engine, NOW i push the clutch back down and slide it into first, and it feels silky smooth. with out the double clutching it won't go into first @ 25. even if i hold the rpms at 5000 it just won't. My WRX had the exact same feeling to it. this works great for me, Your Results May vary! offer not applicable where specifically voided! |

No, I won't work on your car. F* your car

Awesome weekend! Not to rub it in again, but it looks like I snubbed Scott in Nick's car on Sunday by a 0.02 second margin! The "battle" was SO much fun tho!
And it was awesome having my Pops come out to watch!

That guy INSISTED that the first apex cone was out of the box and made me fix it. But since there was nothing wrong with it, I just made it look like I fixed it but really just moved it back and forth.
