Thank you! Love the 100. Been in the family since it was new. 265k and still on the original motor and drivetrain ��
After a long, arduous journey through the DMV system I finally got the car off PNO and some fresh tags.
And took the car for its first legal street drive since doing the k swap. I can't imagine how brutal it would have been driving on the freeway with the 4.08. Even with the 3.5 I was nearly at 4k doing 60mph.
I entered a comp last Sunday. I wasn't able to get an alignment in time so I kinda eyeballed it at home, then tweaked it accordingly at the track. I kept having weird balance issues where the car wouldn't break loose or would nearly spin. After playing with tire pressure, I ended up switching to a different set of wheels that had new ss595's instead of rsr's and it made a world of difference. (American flags were part of my costume GO USA GO!)
After going in and out of the pits making adjustments I finally got the car dialed in and put down some solid runs, but it was too little too late and I wasn't able to make it into the big show ��
After the comp it was time for fun runs and I started to get really comfortable with the car. Putting the 3.5 in was the best decision. It feels comparable to running the sr with a 4.6, but now I have the rpm range to really make the short gearing work.
