Project Infiniti G20 Racecar: Even More Power
By Steve Rockwood
In kid's soccer, everyone gets a trophy, regardless of finishing order. No winners, no losers. Motorsports, on the other hand, is completely defined by whether you're winning or losing. Unfortunately, our normally aspirated SR20 was not so mighty when compared to the other MPTCC cars, so we forced some air down its throat in the hopes of finally getting some hardware.
C.A.D. - Cardboard Aided Design
By Dan Barnes
It was an epiphany when I walked into a race shop and saw the interior tin work of an under-construction Rolex GT car mocked up entirely in white illustration board, clecos and blue tape. I made a mental note: I can do that! I can even afford that! Now my projects turn out better with the use of old cereal boxes, scissors and tape.
Project Frankenmiata: Failure is ALWAYS an Option
by Dave Coleman
Wanna see what happens when an engine eats a screw? Wanna know how to fix a head gasket with JB weld? Wanna know what a Mexican Dodge Stratus and a U.S. Subaru WRX have in common? Ever wondered if an engine with a thrown rod can still be driven? Start reading.

In our last edition of Project 350Z, we upgraded our Wheels and Tires to Motegi TrakLitesand Nitto NT01’s. When Sera went back to the track she reported much more grip and good basic balance, which complemented the Whiteline Swaybars and KW Clubsports we had previously installed. Now it was time for a Stoptech big brake upgrade.
Since we opened up the back part of our exhaust with Greddy’s 85mm in diameter RS catback exhaust system, it was natural to next look for a better downpipe. After evaluating what was on the market, we decided to use the AMS Wide Mouth because of several unique design features which we felt made it stand out above the rest.
Project Starletabusta- Looking Back at Some Backyard Bodywork and Paint
By: Alex Vendler
DIY Paintjob? It can be done but it's really not for the weak or the impatient. Here our Starlet takes on a new skin and it's owner loses some of his during the process. Read on and see where he went wrong and right.

It started off like any other chat conversation (note: actual words may have been modified from the original text in order to fit the screen and time allotment)
Khiem: Yo Martin, what's happenin man?
Martin: Workin. What's up with you?
Khiem: I need to take the S2k out for a track day in cold weather.
Martin: Oh yeah? I need to take the SE-R out. Speed Trial USA has a day coming up at Streets.
Khiem: Perfect! How much power does that SE-R make...
As outlined in Part 1, if a Husqvarna TE610 matches the description of the bike you want, then there really isn't any other bike that does. Things didn't go the way I expected when I got the Husky home to my garage and started going over it. The plan was to get the bike home, change the oil, clean the air filter and chain, and go ride. But with the grease and dirt removed, I could actually see the chain guide. There was work to do.
Project 370Z: Part 1 - Testing the AEM ETI Cold Air Intake

Project G20 Racecar: AEM AQ-1 Data Logger Install
My memory is horrible. Outside of which landmarks to aim for, my recollection of what I just did to nail that last corner just right is downright absent, and I couldn't really even tell you if it actually was nailed just right. Peak coolant temp on that last session? Hell if I know, seemed fine when I bothered to look at it. A/F ratios? The guy behind me said I shot flames on decel, so rich would be my guess. Intake temps? No clue. The fact is, there's a lot going on inside a racecar, and it requires a whole hell of a lot more of my attention than I can give. Enter the AEM AQ-1 Data Logger.
