Of course its sped up! What do you expect, the guy did it for free! That was ludicrous speed after that I think I hit plaid. :-P
No pat on the back or "That a boy, way to go!". Tough crowd. :-/

So if you were a lapping day customer of the 2013 season you were awarded a FREE lapping day! This time I drove the car out to the track with a demo tag that the boss man let me use and a coworker let me use some 15" BBS wheels with Dunlop Direzza tires. Big THANKS to them!!! Car handled great! 160+ cars were expected threw out the day! They broke it up in to two groups, fast and slow. I was in the slow group, still breaking it. It got a lil crazy at times! After the end of first 30min. session I checked tire pressure, it was too high! By my 3rd session my tire pressure was dialed in as good as I could get it. Had a fella in a '04 miata spin out in front of me in turn 5, I think, at the end of the back strait. He went in a lil hot! Contact was avoided! Would have been pretty cool if I had an in-car video of it! :P
Another thing I did was that I installed an air filter in the air box this time because I drove it out to the track. When we tuned the CIS injection no air filter was in place. I noticed a lack of power from the last time I was out. My thoughts are that the metering plate of The CIS is not seeing the same amount of air. Am I right in my thoughts or do I need to look deeper? CIS gurus chime in!!
Here are some long distance pics and vids for your viewing pleasure!

Portland is a great town and has good beer! I've just been spoiled with 360 days of sun and good beer! :wink: I see PIR every time we fly out of there and it looks like a great track! The family was packed up and ready to move out there but the wife's job offer fell threw. Her dad has lived in the Montavilla neighborhood for ever!! Turned our world upside down a lil bit. But hey, thanks for the nice compliment on the car! If all goes well I might have a roll cage in this winter.

Hey, You can get a wideband oxygen sensor and meter to monitor your air/fuel mixture, that will tell you exactly what's going on! Programable with separate outputs for wide and narrow band signals to your CIS (you'd use narrow).

SO much great information in this thread. These 84's are hard to come by and especially the parts for it. Great job on both of the cars here!!
Most of the work done by the guys at Eurowise with me finishing it up. Id like to upgrade the brakes next myself and especially convert the rears to a caliper set up.

I am missing this stupid little metal piece on the bottom left of the bumper cover. If anyone has an extra one for sale I WOULD REALLY appreciate it =D.
