Figured I would do a quick write up on how to make your own EBCS since I don’t think there is one on here. Don’t go spending all sorts of money on a Cobb one that is literally the same thing with a custom sticker (unless you really like custom labels)
Depending on where you find your valve (can...
Going to link to my FB page with the main post, but just in case someone doenst have FB who wants in. Im possibly doing a 2nd run of the Speed 6 subframe bushings. If you are interested let me know. I wont even be able to consider starting for another 2 weeks once my shop opens up from lock...
@JohnnyTightlips is going PI and wanted to upgrade his fuel pump. Ended up sending me the parts to make him a basket set up like I had back in my speed. Keeps the pump on the bottom of the basket to avoid starvation (I never had an issue). Stock line is used as a return and in this case an...
I decided it would be a fun time to renovate 2 houses, and have a 2nd kid this summer, so I pretty much kind of fell off the wagon with working on knobs this summer. Im planning on starting new beginging of the year and knocking out a bunch of them for people. As of right now, I would like to...
Trying out a coating (Salt Bath Nitriding) on a knob Im doing for a friend. Did a couple I had lying around in it as well. This is not something I plan to offer on a regular basis as its quite expenisve, so I would need a lot of interest and make them in quantity.
Its a nice satin looking...
Hey everyone,
Im back on working to plan this year’s Midwest meet this is going to be a long post, so buckle up and get to reading. (also, Im doing this at work so I didnt proof read this all haha)
Starting out for those who don’t know, it will be the weekend of August 16-19.
First up...
I was looking a while ago, when I lost my tow hook, for the thread pitch of what ours were. Never was able to find a correct answer. Ended up getting one and measured it up for anyone else that might need it. This is for a Gen 1, I have no idea if other speeds are different or not.

When my car burned down, I got going on a light bulb knob style that I had been asked to do multiple times but was difficult to make. Well I ended up not needing the funds as fast as I had intended so they got put on the back burner.
Now they are done up and ready to ship. I made 10 to...
As many of you know, I had a bit of a fire at the track a few months back. Car was a total loss. My plan at the time was to take all the money I had saved for re-doing my LeMans from selling parts that I made (shift knobs and various other projects) to buy something. It wasn’t a lot, but it...
Hey guys, I do more than just make shift knobs!
I have been working with Clint Griest and his super race car MS6 on a new project. He asked me to work out some solid subframe bushings for him to replace the compliant stock ones. After a bit of back and forth I think we have it figured out...
Bought a new car that came with some mud flaps. I had made my own previously from some amazon basic flap kit, but just kinda guessed on how and where to cut them. Gave this kit to @Hashineer and he CAD-ed them up for me. Decided to make a drawing so that people wouldn't have to guess like I...
I picked up a valve cover breather and ended up getting a bunch of oil pushed out the valve cover (I assumed it was going to happen, but I tried anyway)
Well, I liked the idea of the breather so I mocked up a baffle to block off the oil slosh from getting all over everything. Had some people I...
I found that I was missing my MAF sensor O-Ring. I assume that my MAF cal is not perfect because of this fact and I wanted to replace it. Dealer price is stupid, and to order online anywhere was going to cost me $25 after shipping. Eff that noise.
Even after buying 3 sizes to get it correct...
@Chef made me a bunch of stickers with the logo he designed for me to test out his new printer.
They came out awesome. Debating on if I should get some made up. Is this something people would be interested in? Not sure on what they would cost yet, and what sizes I would need to get.
Does anyone know what size hose connects to the fitting below? I want to buy hose barbs today to replace my hard line that goes over the transmission, but I didnt measure the hose.
Im pulling my turbo and DP to swap them with a Tial hotside and a CPE downpipe (got that exclusive shit)
When I was getting them all ready here I wondered about buying a turbo blanket and what the benefit would be. From my bit of research there doesn't seem to be a downside. Wonder if anyone...
Looking for a gift for that mazda friend of yours? Maybe need to drop a hint to your significant other about what to get you? I decided to take stock of what I have that I can get out before Christmas (if ordered this week).
Right now in stock I have:
(8) Spheres
(9) Dessert Beagles (with...
Tracked the car this last Monday with my fancy new Wilwood brakes. Things got hot up front (600+ degrees on the rotor even after 1/2 a lap of cool down)
So Ive decided I need brake ducting. Has anyone done this?
Ive gotten a solid start I think. Ive removed the dust shield and made a...
Thanks to @DaUberSchwebel I now know there is a motorcycle section. Figured I can post in here and see if I can get some advice.
I have a 1970 CL350 I bought a couple years back. Bike has ran well since I bought it, but towards the end of last season I had issues with spark on one cylinder...
Finally have my PI system up and running after a few hiccups. Talking with Will at PD tuning (@Captain KR) I mentioned how I somewhat built up my system myself doing it on a bit of a budget, and he said I should post up a list of what I used and how much it cost for people who aren’t going all...
