Race 1: I raised the rear of the car and soften the front off to stop the weight transfer backwards, hoping this would allow me to keep my foot planted in the faster corners.

    Did the valve tapping issue you had before you changed the valve springs, etc, ever go away when the engine warmed up or did it happen wether it was hot or cold? My 92 vr seems to be louder now when it warms up, a lot louder than it used to be

    • @kakepipeautomotive
      @kakepipeautomotive Рік тому

      VRs all tap a bit of left a while (2/3 weeks) so that’s why I generally start mine now for 20 mins each week. Yes the valve tapping does disappear when warm but it goes quicker one you give it some pressure. The lifters are shit and ive had new sets that are a arse to get free, I have a draw full of deader or stuck lifters. Id suggest if it’s louder now, you might wanna get some new lifters in Bill

    • @billbradley6380
      @billbradley6380 Рік тому

      Thanks for the reply, I forgot to check back. How's that Corrado coming along, it's always something on these damn cars. I did replace the lifters but that was at least 10 yrs ago when a buddy of mine helped me change the leaky head gasket. It seemed like there was a lot of carbon on the valves when the head was off, could that also be causing some of the noise?

  • @himwiththehair

  • @agdryicecleaning9425
    @agdryicecleaning9425 Рік тому

    Very nice man jealous for sure, if I could suggest, use the track its wide, use it and try not to scrub tires coming out of those turns. That is momentum racing so every time you scrub speed by over correcting and not utilizing the whole track your loosing time. But overall I can see your improvement in the car and your driving! nice run you had them guys peeking in the rear view constantly. I also think you can get that Integra.

    • @kakepipeautomotive
      @kakepipeautomotive Рік тому

      Thanks for the nice comments! The car feels great and with a few more tweaks I think it will be on point! YeH after reviewing my footage over and over again I can see there is so much more track to use to help maintain my speed! The next video I’m going to dig into the fastest lap data from last year and this year. Hope your enjoying the content

    • @agdryicecleaning9425
      @agdryicecleaning9425 Рік тому

      In order to get better constructive criticism is needed. Its Kart racing just bigger, one scrub of wheels and your race can be over. Slower is faster find the best line to keep momentum this rule applies to all racing including RC racing.

  • @DeePaignall
    @DeePaignall Рік тому

    That was a blast thanks! Great to see you progressing. The captions really help btw and how far did you throw that fkn wiper lol? PS I'd go for less tight cornering and more wide entries to keep momentum in the curve, not that I know anything:)

      Slightly better diagnostics and the ISV is internal to the Throttle body. Apparently there are natural gains to be made from OBD2 but not that i saw. Also the TB is smaller than OBD1. This is why alot of VR6 turbo peeps prefer the OBD1 setup and its easier
