So I've been thinking about a J's wing to replace my C-West wing. Then I started texting with Brian from PCI today and he shared the new and improved version of my wing brackets/wing. This whole kit weighs 1/3 what my kit weighs!

Okay...last teaser before it's all done. Been exactly one month since I dropped the car off and it will be done just a few days before Wekfest. I hope everything works out. We still have to find a way to support the J's bumper. That damn thing has no provisions in the middle for the bumper support :/

Hmm.. I know you just replaced basically everything! Its running rich I assume.. May be something in the PCV system, possibly an O2 sensor?
Any other conditions to go along with it? performance wise?

So I have some great news...

My car finally started! After a two year build starting right out of high school, it feels phenomenal. I can't believe it.

Ended up being a bad coil in the dizzy which we thought was good.

The last few pages have been win. Some very nice cars.

The EF community is alive and well.

EDIT: Just to add, some snaps from the GTCC Grassroots event at Tsukuba

Yes, the wing and mounts will be sold as a kit. I don't really have much more info. They were total teasers from Brian at PCI, but as soon as I can buy it, I'm buying it!

Thanks mang. Still nervous about the finished product. I've never done something so drastic to a car. I've always been pretty simple. The fenders are cleaner than I thought...considering the J's fenders are totally hacked, the owner of the body shop said he wouldn't make them any other way but clean.

If I didnt have so much invested into mine already I would probably give you guys a shot. My apologies for just calling it expensive metal. Thanks for the video!
No its all good. Im sorry for not being here on HT more often. We had a few good threads going in terms of how ours worked. It was a development from our own race car. HT deleted most of the threads which I can understand, it was turning into a for sale thread. Ive been nervous to post anything about it in general. One of my threads was about why some EF's get a super hard pedal feel after a hydro conversion whether it be a mechanical conversion or complete hydro. We uncovered some secrets during our testing. It was some good info but it was deleted.

Im sorry to hear your unhappy. There maybe be some reasoning behind your issues. We have extensive testing and real life R n D expanding to 3 years and 50,000 miles spread between 15 cars/driving styles and every EF chassis on and off road. Hit us up on FB see what we can do for you.

I wish you were around when I tried the hydro conversion 3 years ago. I had an extremely hard pedal and even snapped a clutch pedal in half!!! I quit after that and always carry a spare clutch cable with me now

Anyone like brand new parts?



Thought it was funny that it had a "vintage" label.


Oh, question to those running Goodridge brake lines. Were they a little on the long side for you as well?
