Ya I kinda expect the car will get smashed up from being used like this. I'll probably just do the minimum and get the safety stuff put together for each car. I have at least 2 Berettas I can dedicate to this. Yah A fiero would do good in a derby, you might damage the steering though. I've seen derb...

So I found out where I live they do dirt track oval racing, and possibly derbies. Two things I always wanted to do when I was younger. Now that I have money and time I wanted to have some fun with a couple Berettas I still have. Those who have done this before, what is the typical cost in parts to c...

Depends on how many parts you can sell and who needs parts. Usually you can break even when its a car nobody wants to pay a lot for.

Get a piece of toilet paper and let them crawl onto it. Then wrap it up and flush down the toilet. Stink bugs leave scent trails like ants. Once you get one, more will follow. The nice thing is they are not destructive or hard to kill. They are just anoying when you see them clumsily flying around t...

Last I knew, there were only 14 others -that meant my car stood a chance! Does the FB group throw in any? Any at all?

Cant wait to see your photo!

Why twin turbos instead of one big turbo with lots of boost? lag? Huh? I mocked-up a twin turbo setup before I built the crossover pipe months ago, but I went with the single T-04 (big turbo) for simplicity, and because that turbo was just too big for the pushrod 3.4 in my '90 'Retta but was a good...

Some of the smoke is actually clearing up. It is still puffing a bit under boost, but just heavier loads it isn't doing it now... There is hope of a self-correction here! I more or less knew the water pump would be wetting the bed -it was original, and I never took the belt off this thing while it ...

I think rwd drive shafts were off by a few degrees to keep the bearings always spinning in the U joints to reduce wear in one spot.
I'm not sure how that works with fwd if it changes anything.

I recomend a tighter belt to bring it back to how it was before the smaller pulley on the alternator. It will slip eventully and once it slips to much you might have to replace the crank pulley and any other pulleys that no longer grip. I had that problem on the sunbird. New belts kept slipping and ...

I like seeing what other people have. lol

Took my 96 Beretta to my local car show. Someone stopped me as we were leaving and complemented how nice my 96 Beretta looks. Said he had a red GTZ in the past and he missed it. Didn't take photos of the car, to busy talking to other people we knew. Going to have to wait till next year to take photo...

I thought I had a photo but my tire is pointing towards the camera so I'll wait till next year, Not going to try and Photoshop that. lol

Hard to know without seeing the parts side by side.
But I'm thinking they might have changed the molds on the ends.
