Here's his instagram to browse through. As I said before, I'm positive he'll be racing in Quebec this summer. I'm sure you could compare lap times afterwards? Unless of course you just like swinging your ****, and not backing it up.
In all seriousness tell your buddy his Miata is off the hook, and yes he would most likely spank me silly.


BTW didn't say I would eat the Sti only that it doesn't scare me unless it's cobb tuned (or modded to an extent), it'd definitely be a fun competition that I wouldn,t back away from is really all I meant.


Why you gotta try to find the negative about everything, you sound very 'Murican in your attitude

Also keep in note my car isn't the fastest thing in the world and I'm well aware, that being said I try to mention my sc when it's at least semi-relevant to the conversation (I'll know once I finish the little things left to do on it and get it dyno'd)

Cost wise, is FD more expensive than headers/tune?
If you do it, please let me know how much and where you can do a FD rebuild.

Gonna ask my mechanic to see if he does it. Apparently JRP does it too?

I believe FD is cheaper. $300 for the part from Weir I believe and $400-500 labor

I've had passengers tease about flappy paddles before... they are usually the same passengers who get terrified when the tail goes happy. YMMV.

Hehe, I pull out my keys and offer to let them drive the car. They immediately refuse and say car seems scary to drive.

I respond with "its only 200 hp". Your car has much more than mine.
