Some updates,
We had a good deal of new issues at Willow Springs. Most were overcomed with hard work and dedication. Racing and development is a fun battle!!!
Issue 1. Low than zero oil pressure. Oil pump went down due to bad machining/shimming than damaged the piston inside.
Issue 2. no fuel pressure. One of the walbros in the tank died. We replaced it.
Issue 3. Knocking, hesitation. It was 105-110 degrees outside and track temps @ 165 degrees. Decreased the timing a tad and changed the spark plugs we were good to go.
Issue 4. Electrical failure. Car died while we had 6 car lengths over the K&N G35. We were done.
However the grip levels were phenomenal and the suspension and Aero proved them selves very well with all the added tq. Just sucked to have to take it easy with the car since we had these issues. We will conquer these hickups and make the car stronger as usual. This is what makes a Subaru....a Subaru.
STi is in Nebraska right now. Cruising back to Chicago and prepping it up for all the local events, including but not limited to the GTA @ Autobahn later this year.
More updates soon.
Anyone else doing anything with their car?
