I was in a locally set up go kart racing league when i was younger(13-15), And you seriosuly do learn a lot of driving skills from that. I won most of the time cause everyone else didnt know how to build motors, But everyone wasnt bad. Then one kid had to crash and brake his leg, And that was the end of that. :( I always wanted to dyno one of the briggs motors i built. It was one of the rules, You could do whatever you wanted to the motor, But you had to use all the original briggs parts. So i spent hours building them lol. Some of the ones I built were a lot faster on my gokart than the stock motor, But none lasted long. I had bored out carbs, Modified cams, Shaved heads and decks, hours and hours of port work, including making my intake and exhaust ports look like mirrors. I found later that this is useless, But it still looked cool. But you learn a lot from driving anything in competition, and anything where your trying to get around the track as fast as possible. You will really learn a lot about how your car handles and responds.

All I can say...and I think I'm one of the old and wise guys (48)...TAKE YOUR CAR TO THE TRACK!!! (Road course...drags are for wimps)
It's the most fun you will ever have and make you realize street racing is gay.

i tried to rock Mitsubishi starion wheels on my car
it worked for a mile then i saw one roll by me.. dont put 10 inch wide deep dish wheels on the back.. doesnt work out well

couldve been that hubcentric crap

i have bridgestone patenza RE 40 . and they are great!!!! i push them to the limit all the time!

simann nice save
 

ive had 33s on a 88 toyota pu it definetly put a damper on things even with a v6 and the 33s on aluminum weighed about the same as stock steels on 30s

Will 18 Inch rims fit on the back???

How do you know what offset will work for you on the MKIII?
i got 17x9 in the rear with +35offset you guys think ill have problems getting them on?
with 255/40/17 yoko's i dont think it should br a problem

tires and wheels
 

hey soup, the offset for the 18x8 is 32 matched with 225/40 was perfect, the 18x10 is 35 with 275/35 it sticks out about 1/4 in which is okay because i don't plan on dunking it(comfort reason) but theres still room height wise to drop about 3/4 in the front i dropped 2inany tire wider than 275 on a 35 offset wouldn't work on my mk3 / same wheel and offset with 305s would fit perfectly on later soupras.

I am running 18X8 on a 235/40 ZR18 and its going perfect :-)
