Took the teg to autocross again. This time I worked on trail braking to rotate in the tighter turns, and even with my double sway bar, I got the back end to swing out into the turns. The first time I successfully did it, I had the car drifting sideways lol.
I have the addco bar now, but it’s not just going to bolt up. The bends aren’t tight enough and it hits my exhaust. I think it could work but I’m going to have to space the frame brackets down at least 1/2".
Any videos of your run?
No vids but there should be some professional photos by next weekend!
Came home today and my battery is dead in the car I was working on this weekend. I didn’t leave any lights on or anything.
Weird thing too is that my neighbor’s car also had a dead battery.
Aliens.

Whhhaaaaaattttt???
Transmission shop (Anaheim Gear) turned around my tranny really quick with new bearings, springs, carbon-lined synchros and lsd and final drive install. i just need to install my steering parts and I’m ready to finally get the Teg moving again.
Starting to get the itch to take off my front license plate. But the giant philips head screw is rusted in place, and I don’t want to cut the bracket. I make my own problems.
Just curious if the spruced up transmission is going on the b18a or b17?
Bonestock,
It’s going on the B17A. It’s a YS1 tranny, so with the close ratio gears and upgraded low FD it’s much better suited for a high revving motor.
Best
That is awesome setup for your b17 
. Can’t wait to see vids of you ripping it in Vtec
Dude that refurbishment sounds amazing!
I need to put new steering racks in both tegs but I’ve heard that the remans are poor.
@Kip-ft Is a front plate required in your state?
Thanks! I’m looking forward to putting it all together. Are you sure the pinion gear and/or internal rack teeth are worn on the steering rack vs the inner and outer tie rods or steering rack bushings? The pinion and internal rack teeth are pretty robust and a lot of times if the inner tie rod or outer tie rods have play you can, nope, will get a lot of steering play. I’m regreasing my internal gears and installing new tie rods and bushings and boots as I agree with you on the remanufactured ones as they seem iffy to me too.
@NFULFX yes, but from watching everyone run at the autocross, it must not be enforced all that much. 2/3rds of the cars had no front plate.
