Yea its a night and day difference, the GM Alpha 2 platform/chassis is outstanding. My main purpose for Camaro is track and autocross, occasionally I will take it out to drive around down, but at some point I will mod it to the point to where keeping it street legal will be pointless. The...

Here are some pics and a cold start video, cause everyone likes those. https://youtube.com/shorts/4-95FQFZOMY

I am going to start posting footage from my autocross runs to YouTube again. This is my 2nd year in this car, and we are about halfway through the season. I was actually starting to feel a bit stuck in my progress driving the car. The first year and the 4 previous events this year, I had...

I couldn't think of a good thread title, but @Raider told me I should hang out here. I got my start in autocross and motorsports on the Mazdaspeed platform. Owned 2 Gen Juans, a Speed 6, and an RX8. I have now graduated to a 6th-gen Camaro with the 1LE track package. I figured I would use...

Hey man, do you do any work for your real job? ;)

It has a racing beat cat back, and an elite rotary race pipe. I do not think it is loud at all. vT seems to be working without issue so far. I have only flashed OTS tunes though.

Got the new race pipe installed over the weekend. Was a bit of a pain but not to bad.

Hello everyone, After a long hiatus from autocross I am going to get back into it next year. A couple weeks ago I picked up an 09 rx8 GT with 95k miles on it. It’s in extremely good condition, I have stacks of receipts of every service and part that was put on the car. Last weekend with the...

Who let this guy in?

So I have an issue with the 3 where after a pull, or even just a decent amount of boost the feel of the clutch changes. The engagement point will be on the floor, pump the pedal 3 or 4 times and it will go back to normal. I am going to bleed the clutch line, but i figured if there was air in...

Here is the box I bought. These guys where great to work with i gave them the specs i wanted for the box and they customized it to that with no extra charge. Would highly recommend. https://www.zenclosures.com/Mazda-3-Hatch-Subwoofer-Box-p/mazda3hatch.htm

I will try, Essentially say i go over a bump. The front goes up and settles immediately, the rear goes up, and instead of settleing it bounces up again before it settings flat again. if you ever follow your local ricer around town, or a car with blown shocks its similar, you can see the ass...

So your not having any issues with the shorter shock body of the B8 with stock springs? I am running on the assumption that most replacement shocks and struts are likely designed with stockish spring rates in mind. Hence my thinking of finding lowering springs with close to stock spring rates...

I would imagine my best bet is to find lowering springs closest to the stock spring rates. The 3 is much stiffer from the factory than the 6, and the internal bump stops in the bilstiens should still keep body roll down. This car is just the DD so it does not need to be crazy, that is what the...

Yea that's my issue, the ass is always bouncing over bumps, at highway speeds its not as bad, but around town, especially with road conditions currently on certain roads i drive regularly the back never settles properly and just bounces all the time. i found some other post where the Cobb...
