    Converting a SM to a full ITA ride "build"

    So the last few times I've been on track, I've ran the SM in ITA. I'm really happy being back in IT, and want to convert the car over to full ITA spec car (as budget and time allow). I know the 1.6 isn't ideal, but it is what I have. The car is a tiring crate 1.6, with a nice header on it...

    so what e36 chassis is the prefered one to build?

    I have my ITB car up for sale, and am thinking of building an e36. I like the fact that they are reasonably priced, parts seem readily available and you can run them in different series. One thing I don't know is what is considered the "prefered" chassis? The 325is can run in both ITS and...

    Anyone interested in new Hawk Blues for the 1st gen CRX or 3rd gen Civic?

    I'm working on a deal to get some new brake pads for the ITB CRX. He want's me to try the Hawk Blue compound. As we all know, Hawk doesn't make that compound in our bracket shape, therefore they've had to be cut down. If I can get them to make a run of 20 or so pair, would people be...

    Mitsu Lancer

    What's the general concensus out ther on the non turbo / non awd cars? I always thought these were good looking cars and had lots of potential. The 2002 O.Z. Rally Edition has the following specs: 2.0liter 120 HP @ 5500 rpm / 130 ft lbs @ 4250 rpm 102.4 in wheel base / 177.6 in overall 2701...

    does anyone have a name of a place that can sensibly help me with some issues to spring rates and lengths that I'm having on the honda? i tried talking to Ground Control, but I think I hung up being dumber than I was when I called. I have to make some setup adjustments, and want to make...

    Whats it take to build a competetive ITA Integra?

    There were a good number of Integras at the SARRC/MARRS last weekend, and I was very impressed with their speed and manuverability. ITC has been a great learning experience, but its time for me to look at one of the bigger classes... thus the interest in the Integra as a possible build project...

    Would the Prelude be a competetive ITA ride?

    With all the talk of the Fiero and the MR2 in ITA, I was curious about the Prelude. Is anyone racing them? How are they performing? What about parts... is stuff available for the 88-91 cars? Which one is the one of choice? It just looks a bit interesting. hoop

    A question about Engine Rebuild Kits.

    I ventilated the block on my Honda, in May. I plan to do a .040 motor. The machinist that is doing the work has looked into some rebuild kits and I have a few questions. Honda does not make a rebeuild kit any longer. They do offer parts. He has found a rebuild kit that contains the...
