Want a set of 4. 13x8 (or 7”) for my 94 autox car. Bassett steelies are about 16# each: I’m wanting lighter. And cost effective. Maybe Shipped to central Missouri.

I’ve campaigned this car off & on for several years. 1st as (unsuccessful) GTL, now EP. Specs: * Fresh (almost new) engine from Springfield dyno * Prather flywheel & double disc 5 1/2” Tilton * Jericho 5 speed * Aluminum driveshaft * Koni double adjustable shocks (almost new) * Electramotive ECU...

I have a 1.8 Miata (DP AUTOX, basically stock engine) with a concerning oil pressure issue. Cold (idle) about 60 psi, hot (180) goes to zero. Gage (mechanical) checked: ok. Have no idea what oil was in it. Experimented with straight 50w. 75 psi at idle but drops rapidly as engine warms up...

Still for sale if you’re reading this. Clean title. Why is it halffast you ask? Because it’s only got compression in 2 of 4 cylinders. That’s easily correctable: just install the spare (stock) engine. Stock engine, gage cluster, ECU. Good news: Totally gutted for AUTOX use Aftermarket wheels...

I have a 1995 BMW 318 I autocross car with some issues. Last time out, it didn’t run very well. Lap times were down & it didn’t sound quite right. Found nothing visual so started with the basics: fuel, spark & airflow were ok so on to more serious investigation. Compression test was an eye...

I have an old Hot Lap timer that I used in my slow RX2 years ago. I recall I used a push button rather than the beacon to register lap times : some laps were really slow (when I forgot to punch the button.....). These systems are out of production so there is minimal old stock available. Can't...

Broken Mazdatrix 13B. x-Bob Neal. Needs rear Iron {one ported & one stock included]. Don't know if rotor, housing or center iron are damaged. Needs disassembly to be sure. Used center iron & 2 good Renesis rotor housings included. No WP or pulleys. $3,500 Tired Jesse Prather 12A. Built with all...

Picking up a car in LA Wednesday Sept 16. Will have room for small parts on way back along I40. Bill 414. 732. 773six

This car was built by Gary Martz & won several National races. i bought it as a roller in 2005 and three a lot of time and quality parts at it. Im moving on to another class so everyting is available. LOOSE PARTS AVAILABLE AS NOTED BELOW. Car is race ready unless the really good 13B or trans...

Need a 12 gallon cell to replace [grossly oversize] 15 currently in the car. Would prefer to not buy a new one if someone has a good used (or unused...) one laying around.

My 1st gen has a 15 gallon cell. It's WAY too big. I typically use less than 8 gallons with the 12A. I will eventually have a 13B in the car. How much gas would I expect to use with that (carbed)? I think a 10 gallon cell will be adequate. A 12 gallon will, i believe, just give me an opportunity...

All: Yesterday, I posted the car for sale to be parted out. See the details in for sale. Here's a crazy last minute idea: if you are coming to the Runoffs for a first time experience or from a long way away, I'd rent this thing for $2500. [Entry & track gas not included]. NO DNF's in 7 seasons...

Looking for shock dyno service. Preferably in Milwaukee area. Who do you use/recommend?

This is from my 1st gen RX7. I think it's from Mazdaspeed (no picture in the catalog). I pressed off the bad bearing - waiting for the new one. Help ID please so I can get a spare. Thanks Bill
