A track car shouldn't have to turn the wheel more than 90% most of the time.

Track alignment. Setup to the tracks I'll be visiting. With the best turn in possible. Might have to be adjust some more pending track day testing. This was a string alignment.
F-3.0 Camber........Total Toe 1/8 out
R-1.8 Camber........Total Toe 1/16 in

Wish you had an exact weight on the turbo kit. Be nice to know the NA weight.

Yes that's NA. Backed out of the very lame GTM customer service. so I put a full cage in and put my money where it matters. Safety

Car should be 100% in the next two weeks.

Really? So what was getting done when you pulled the motor and was all worried about start up and such? I missed that.

That's why I pulled the motor to install the TT kit. And some other small things. After last month I got tired of waiting on GTM I canceled my order and put motor back in. Who was worried about start up? Not me. I know what I'm doing. Lol.

Well good! Glad you stayed NA. I've turbo'd and tuned. I'm over it! Our club owner even boosted his G35 and blew it and went back to NA and he has more fun, drives faster and harder. Every day he talks someone off the ledge from boosting. I believe he's right too. I can kick the **** out of almost anyone on my 600cc SS vs their 1000's. You can just ring its neck like no other and you can see them baby the throttle. Plus if I ever move south I want a fair fight haha.

Cage is 100% finished. Besides painting. Steering column has been totally reworked and OEM gauge cluster deleted.

For anyone looking to tap for RPM or a Tach. It's the first of the three harnesses off the ECU. It's the grey colored harness clip. Now due to the nature of this type of harness clip you can't count the pins to figure out. Which would be pin 14. I'm sure there's a way to undo the swing lock latch but I wasn't about to break it. Your looking for a red wire. There's three. A bigger one, one that's twisted around a white wire, and a smaller red wire by itself. The smaller one by itself is the one.

Bigger wire. Which also has a black sleeve on it to indentify.


Red wire twisted.


AND THE ONE YOUR LOOKING FOR

I believe so. I read so much I lost all the actual purposes of each wire. Lol. But I got it right. Lol.
