  1. Track Day Setup Koni/H&R Initial Review

    Must be the browser being almost as old as the 38-year old ship I'm floating on right now. All I see is the dreaded red X in a white box.
  2. Track Day Setup Koni/H&R Initial Review

    I don't think one can insert pdfs into a post. Having seen the BL-281 bulletin (http://www.whiteline.com.au/docs/bulletins/BL-281.pdf), it compares solid sway bars (like the Whiteline sways) with solid sway bars. I also didn't see those specific percentages from isrboss's post (OE+0%, OE+14%...
  3. Questions about lowering

    I would've preferred the T-springs, but no one knows the front spring rate. The rears are just K springs so we have an idea about them. I asked the Tech line and they said they couldn't divulge, but I like to actually know what I'm getting. I would love to know the front/rear spring rate balance...
  4. Track Day Setup Koni/H&R Initial Review

    Just curious where you got the data on the swaybar. It's hard to find good data on swaybars. Thanks.
  5. 2013 stripe alignment issues

    I don't have any misalignment like that. Since it is only misaligned on one side, it tells me that the problem is the driver's side hood L-stripe (20000B L/H) since the front fascia stripes come together and the hood stripes are in 3 sections (L/H, R/H, center stripe). I wonder if there were...
  6. 2013 stripe alignment issues

    What is the nature of misalignment?
  7. K&N Air Filter

    You may have over-oiled it and gotten some oil on the MAF or MAP sensor (whichever your Mazda had). I read a Grassroots Motorsports article a few years ago (maybe 2006-7) that compared stock paper, K&N and Green air filters (and maybe some others that I forget) on a Miata, and the K&N flowed...
  8. Odd Noise.....HELP!

    If it is on acceleration, and not clutch actuation then I would agree to look at u-joint, driveshafting.
  9. Odd Noise.....HELP!

    302 Hi Pro had a clutch clunk issue, which he elaborated on another Boss forum. http://www.boss302forum.com/topic/15124-clutch-assembly-replacement-4000-miles/ I think I have this too and when I am back in the States, I'm having the dealer look at the pressure plate.
  10. Double adjustable shock question

    There is nice little shock setup guide on pg 19 of Truechoice Koni Racing Service's catalog (http://www.truechoicekoniracingservices.com/2013_TKRS_Catalog.pdf).
  11. Ford Racing Boss 302 Springs...

    Has anyone who has the T-springs been able to evaluate whether there is a change in oversteer/understeer. The rears are K-springs if I'm not mistaken which are stiffer than the stock Boss, P-springs and Steeda rears. Since we don't know what spring rate the fronts are, I was wondering whether...
  12. Decibel reading...before I do it

    Since neither said what location they measured from, then I guess they can.
  13. TracKey for DD?

    Silver key for daily driving (it's my DD) or long trips- red key wastes too much gas. Red key for hitting the twisties, etc.
  14. driveline clunk

    I'm kind of surprised by how many people suggest living with clunks, etc. My Boss replaced two successive Mazdas (RX-8 and before that a Gen 3 RX-7) and clutch clunk (esp. noticeable in 1st) is not what I'm used to (or any real driveline noise on 3,045 and 2,862 lb cars respectively). I'm on the...
  15. Winglets Anyone?

    Although the home-made canards pictured in a post above probably don't do anything because of that vertical wall behind and under the canard, but it is common addition to race cars for creating downforce on the front end of the car (although due to their size, significant speed is usually...
