We have one in our club that tracks/hillclimbs a vr4. Super nice guy. It does pretty well.

I'll put the car in the readers ride section after its overhaul is complete this spring. As for getting back at my friends, I am just going to play it cool for a while because I am sure they are expecting a retaliation. After a good amount of time then I'll strike with a prank of epic proportions (haven't thought of it yet). Any ideas
On a somewhat unrelated note, does anyone else here have a vr4? Anybody track one of these cars?
and the DD is a 2008 Tundra
My Son and I have a shop by the unified school offices, and we part out Miata's to support our hobbies, we will be there all weekend getting some Mg parts ready for a swap meet next weekend

Can I threadjack this DSM love fest and ask if anyone has a line on a decent used head?
The head on my 4G63 got angry after a timing belt snapped. I've been trying to get the right access to what I think are the DSM forums/classifieds, but must be missing the bulk of them.
I'm in SoCal, but I guess I could pay for shipping if anyone knows of a good deal.
Thanks!

Maybe, let me look. Do you need a 1G cylinder head or a 2G cylinder head? No CAS in a 2G.

Oh my bad. 1G. Its for this bad boy...
I heard it doesn't matter if its a turbo or non-turbo head, but I need some turbo valves too. Not all of them, but makes sense to look for a turbo head. I don't need cams, mine are still fine.

That's quite the bumper, is that a LeMons car?

wait that looks much too nice for that and you're trying to fix it so it can't be. It's late and I'm dumb. I still want to know what you race it in though.

You've seen a Belize Green 191,000 mile stocker, right. That would be mine.

Yes thats a lemons car, that was a pre-race photo. We had some tranny linkage issues that left us bouncing off the limiters around the high speed corners. I think that helped snap the timing belt.
Slapping a $100 used head on a fully built and raceable lemons car <<<<<<<<<< less work than building a new one!
