currently replacing the blown up j35a4 in a friends sand car and it sent some shrapnel through the turbo, which is 20 years old, so I figure it’s best to replace the turbo while we’re putting a fresh (rods and pistons) motor in. With that said, what’s the current go to turbo for one of these...

I heard just recently that he ripped off a customer for a ton of money that was supposed to be going towards building a car for him. Definitely steer clear of bfd!

I always had great luck with the race prepped 300m cv’s that kartek sells and they’re only around 200 bucks each. They lived behind a stroked ls3 before I went twin turbo and 934’s.

It seems that aem has discontinued the series 2, what other options are there for a tune-able computer for a j-series? A good friend and customer of mine just put a rod through the block on his turbo j35a4 with the old school missing link and fmu after many years of use so I’d like to get it set...

Gonna be hard to beat what Alper can offer you for a sand car motor in that price range. I’ve seen “bulletlsx” postings on Facebook and he seems to be VERY inexpensive, to the point that I question how he’s able to make any money off of his builds if the parts are as advertised. There’s only a...

I have an iPad mounted in the dash with a gps app. I rarely use it. It does come in handy if you need to drop a pin where someone broke so you can make it back to them if you need to run to get parts or tools etc

I’d make the trip down to Tucson to see Steve Cole. I’ve used three of the tuners in the east valley and can’t say I’d recommend any of them.

Definitely sounds like the clutch is slipping. I’m running over 700whp on regular 33x15 #2’s without noticeable wheel spin in 3rd and 4th. I ran in to this same issue in a previous car with a Honda v6, upgraded the 1300’s to 14.50s and it made it worse. Turned out sand was getting in the bell...

Thanks for the info! I’ll do some measuring when I get back out in the shop! Looks like another issue we may run in to is the standard vs midboard micro stub setups. These areas have the midboard style mounting plates and all kartek has for 3.60 opening is for the standard style plates.

Looking for info on upgrading from 27 spline to 33 spline microstubs, anyone done this? Is it simply just replacing the 27 spline bearings and stubs with 33’s or will I run into issues with brake rotor offset etc? Unfortunately the hubs are older and don’t have a brand name on them so I don’t...

Jason what’s the secret to this setup? Currently doing a 4.0 whipple on a 383 build with 5th gen Camaro offset and accessories. The kit was purchased second hand and came with that same lower pulley, spacer and the bracket with the idlers, upper pulley is a 6 rib that lines up pretty close with...

Well I guess I should update you guys even though I failed miserably at taking picture or videos! got the fuel tank pulled out, Sky took it to performance radiator in phx, had it dropped off on that Friday and picked up the following Monday. Got it back in the car that week, hooked everything...

Made a post a while back about my S&S chassis breaking right in front of the front trans mounts, car was only a couple tubes away from the motor and trans laying in the sand. I had been wanting to re do the back half of the car so that it wouldn’t sit so low, and decided to make some...

and how she sits at the moment! Since Skylar is in Tempe and I’m in Gilbert we got to talking and i told him to bring the car over so I can get the tank pulled out for him! He dropped it off to have it cleaned Friday, should get it back next week and hopefully it will be running like a top...

What’s up guys. Gonna be doing some repairs to my chassis and also wanting to add a rear sway bar. Looking for some input on what to run for a sway bar, thinking 1-1/4” diameter but not sure if I should run a solid sway bar, .188” wall, or .250” wall? Anyone able to steer me in the right...

Had a hard hit last week resulting in some damage to my chassis. Clean break on both lower tubes just in front of the front trans mount, cracks in the upright tubes between the motor and transaxle and on one side it’s pulling away from the mid crossover tube behind the radiator. I’m guessing the...

What’s up guys. I’m looking for some insight on how narrow wheels with paddles hook up compared to wider wheels, say 7-8” wheels vs 12” wheels. Anyone have experience or input on this?    basically looking to get a little more traction out of my 33’s without putting to much strain on the ring...

Well, pulled the trigger! Here’s what my car weighs, s&s v series 4 seater with an s4s and stroked ls3 on desert tires in the rear… no wonder it’s so wheelie happy, 75% of the weights in the rear with no one in the car 🤣
