3G hatch race car

You are not allowed a turbo in ITA. The legal engine modifications are very few. These include port matching the head to the intake and it cannot exceed one inch. Racing camshafts are not allowed. Some guys play with the ECU, fuel curve, etc. I probably will install a MSD system as I have one lying around.

Thanks for the interest.

I would upgrade the Spark and the Fuel, and run a Scoop and intake into the hood. get as much Air and Fuel and Hellatious spark. Wouldnt it be better to run rich for this????

[Justin86]

So he could do a b-series intake swap, and some higher compression pistons.

it doesnt need PS, AC, CC, any of that under the hood.

I have done some studying on SCCA racing and they are strict as hell on regulations. Very few motor swaps are allowed.
Here is a short list of things you can do to be competitive.
Shave as much weight as possible. If its not nessisary take it out.
Fuel cell - A must for safety.
Get the absolute best brakes and suspension components you can afford.
Front brake venting.
Full roll cage
Very little engine mods are allowed, the are very strict about this.
Mild head job.
Port match the intake.
Cold air intake.
Header and free flowing exaughst.
Lightweight wheels
Good tires are a must, street Yoko's will not cut it.
Tune it to the most strict tolerances possible, use a dyno.

Since my 3g is a beater I just may have to convert it for racing. But that would put a damper on my other project, a NHRA Pro Street Dodge Ram 50.

I wish that I had a second car to drive while I screw with my 3g. There are so many things that I wanna do...but need a second car to drive first.

That blows... I don't know what I would do without my racing cam.

[slammedLXI]

yah those beemer wheels. hahaha ghetto intake!

[Lt99]

Nice ...

[PogiLXI]

hmmm, would one of those doubled up E-Rams work???? I havent read the Specifics on it. but it gives you like 1psi of boost, and double it up gives ur 1.5. that would help commin out of those Corners. Check out the Big brake AEM kit, Theres a thread on here about it. im sure you can Fabriacate, and I think there are only a few parts to be done to get the kit on.

i dont think a b series intake would be legal. too bad they cant use turbos. one of johnny o's 35 pounders would make that bitch fllyyyyyyy

anyway. welcome to the board ITR! its great to have another pro class 3g driver on here! [not me included]

[PortugalFocus]

that car loks great......

like someone states earlier, more weight reduction there is probly at least 75lbs in there... I saw glass, door panels and a dash.....


lose them, congrats on the car, it looks superb!!!!!

[3G Jester]

haha johnny o has an 11.1 drag racer........he still has like 70 % of his original dash. nothing behind it.....original gauge pod...with speedo and in place of the tach and temp gauge he put in two new gauges but in the places of the originals so it still looks awsome. hes even got half of his carpeting and door pannels haha plus roof and dome light. its soooo awsome. 11.1 sec :super:

[Mike's89AccordLX]

Damn that is a killer car! I might have to convert my 89 into a racer (not that it isn't already... ) and I can drive my 91 lude si while I'm fixing the accord up. I'll race both cars but the lude will always be faster.

[3G Jester]

i found something deffinatly old skool in reference to the age of the board [3geez.com not the 3g community--ez board, Automotive Forums]

but this thread made me think of it.....
