Thanks for the pic of the harness bar.  How pricey was it?  I know Speedware isn't known for it's low cost.  :rolleyes:


IIRC, it was somewhere around $375 when I bought it 3 years ago.  Nice stainless steel construction.

Sweet. Another nice brilliantrot:D . I have to find the vids I have in my old 2002. A buddy and me made at least 10. I have yet to make a track vid with my 318is. Only my acceleration run vids here:p .  Do you need hubcentric rings to run the Koseis? What size spacers? I've been thinking of running a set and painting them gold/bronze.

Here's what I used to track:

M42 - Running 205/50R15 BFG G-Force K/D on 15x7 Kosie K1s.  Quite an amazing tire.  They came with the car and had 3k miles on them.  In the last 3 seasons I have out prolly another 3k miles on them, plus 5 track days totaling 13 hard track hours.  Tread looks like it could take another 2-3k street miles or another 4 track days.  Very grippy when hot, linear and predictable and also provide some nice auditory feedback.  Youv got to love lightweight track cars as consumeable last soooo much longer.

Grippy - Nice '02.  What happened to it?  The Kosies come with hubcentric plastic spacers.  I do not know the measurements.

Streetspec - whats shakin jake?

I sold the '02 last year. She ran a very basic setup, but was a lot of fun to drive. This is what I had in her:

Engine:
40 DCOE side drafts (eventually changed to a 38/38 Weber)
shrick cam
Tii manifold
ANSA exhaust

Suspension:
ST Springs
ST Adjustable sway bars
Bilstiein Sports

Oh yeah, forgot the 3.91 lsd

It's the hands on the wheel that tell the story. From working in pit crews and being a spotter it's one of the things you learn to look for. I love day-glo orange gloves. You can see them from farther away. Smooooooth!

Are you referring to mine or TIATO's. Mine are at a buddy's house in Santa Barbara, still in 8mm format:mad: . We never digitized them. If you are referring to TIATO's, they are still in Pg.1.
