    Spring length for 2nd gen front strut?

    What length of spring do I need for Koni insert in the AWR mount for the front on a 2nd gen? Been away from this for too long. :)

    A header you guys might be interested in

    I have no affiliation or experience with Rotary Shack or this header. Just looks to be heavily based on the SDJ concept. Thought I'd pass along the info. http://rotarycarclub.com/rotary_forum/showthread.php?t=7282

    SDJ header replacement?

    Got a guy that might be able to duplicate the SDJ header that's works so well but is oh so no longer available. Anyone have one that could be used for prototype?

    Am I the only one?

    Annoyed by the new post layout on this site? Anyway I can get the old format back so that I don't have to click on every post to read it? http://www.ludwigmotorsports.com/itdotcom.bmp

    The S5 ECU is ready!

    I won't have the specifics for about a week. I just got back from Atlanta 5 minutes ago, and am headed to Chicago in the morning, then vacation starting Sunday. So when I get back I'll post some dyno results and what not. But the short story is we did a final test today and everything checked...

    Under weight...who protests?

    So last month I came across the scales at IRP 10# under weight in SM. We made a mental error and that was that. The woman that was running the scales had me go around and weigh again and we were still 10# under. She wanted me to make a third lap but I said no it's fine, we're under, I'll take...

    "Good" safety wire pliers?

    Summit definetly doesn't sell them. And they sell the same thing I see on most sites. So where can a guy find something that, preferably, wasn't made by an 8 year old working on a dirt floor in Krapistan? My problem with the generic pliers is that after recruiting two men and a small child to...

    Topeka Email?

    Anyone have an email address for the tech people in Topeka? I have some pics of something I need some advice on and it's much easier to email them than trying to explain on the phone. Thanks!

    Programmable ECU

    We're just about ready to go on this deal. I promise! One more round of dyno work to be done soon to confirm some updates we've made over the last version. What I need now are seed ECU chassis. Anyone that has spare ECUs that they may want to get rid of please contact me. If you have a...

    Timing v. Coolant Temp

    Something that we came across while developing the RX-7 ECU is the actual curve the stock S5 ECU uses to pull timing as a safety measure when coolant temps rise. The chart attached below is pretty self explanatory. It was nice to finally confirm what I've felt for a long time.

    Has any thought been given to allowing the ITS RX-7 into ITR with an allowance for street porting?

    Programmable ECU

    What if someone could seriously undercut the price of the Motec option? Who would be interested and what should the price point be? The system in mind wouldn't have the resolution of the Motec but it would offer full programmablity for spark and fuel as well as datalogging capabilities. It...

    Wanted - Old junk header

    I've been drafted into service as the powertrain guy on a GRM $2006 Challenge car. The car is a "locost" 7, homebuilt chassis type thing. I'm staying out of that end of the deal. The fun part is the j-bridge rotary that's going in it. :D I'm going to need to build a header for it and thought...

    How to concentrate?

    Looking for a book, old wive's tale, secret potion, whatever to help make myself a better drive. The problem? My mind wanders. In the past I've had random thoughts like doing the laundry pop into my head while I'm behind the wheel. No lie. I'm a decent driver. We won the Cen-Div Area 4...

    IRP "repaving"

    Just got back from the Rotary Revolution at IRP. It was a weekend long event for all things rotary with an open lapping event today. I got to experience first hand the highly anticipated repaving of the road course. I had anticipated the chuck holes at a couple of the apexs being filled and...

    V710 pressures?

    I've been meaning to call Kumho and pick their brains but... What are the recommended hot pressures for the V710? Tirerack said 35psi cold but that's of little use to me. Thanks! ------------------ Chris Ludwig 08 ITS RX7 CenDiv

    Rotary Fuel and Testing

    With a low (stock) compression rotary engine there is no reason to run high octane race fuel. Us IT folks will do just fine on 87 pump. But what to do about fuel testing? Has anyone found pump fuel that consistently passes SCCA fuel tests? Or is the only option to run expensive race fuel...

    Soft Pedal

    On my 2nd Gen ITS car I've always had a bit of a soft pedal. This year I'm determined to rid myself of it. Everything in the system is new or rebuilt. New master and rebuilt calipers. Nothing is leaking. I've bled until I'm blue with ATE. A fellow 2nd Gen racer helped me with bleeding last...
