Some tips for your overheating. drill a hole in your thermostat, put a larger pulley on your water pump, these techniques work by slowing the flow of water which means it spends more in time the rad and actually cools better than faster flowing coolant. If you use another engine for it down the line have the block caustic dipped to remove all rust from the block, especially in the water jackets and the outside of the bores. Also move your oil coolers away from the rad, as they will just be heatsoaking your radiatior. really enjoying your regular content too.

+m16a2m4 We're hoping some ducting and a vented hood should do the trick because really we're not seeing engine temps that are really high so those measures are more for preventative then anything else.

You might try removing the front license plate. That's a big obstacle to air flow and you don't need it on the car at the track. Just a thought.

I was talking to some guys from Japan about my Fit, and one of them commented that (being an Alberta car) I don't have a front plate, and how much the front license plate restricts air flow to the radiator. Even to the point that most people who run a road car at the track will remove it. Sounds really simple, but if you're worried, it might be a free and easy solution to a little more cooling.

A lot of guys running a wing set the car up scary loose mechanically for quick rotation in slower corners and use the wing to bring the car back to neutral or a slight push to make it driveable through high speed corners.

is the reason for your under steering is because the anti-sway bar that was installed in the front is stiffer than the rear? Also thank you for your public service to frs/brz owners like me.
@speedacademydave
@speedacademydave 9 жыл бұрын
+aaguirre123 we're pretty sure the understeer is being caused by the giant rear wing as well as a bad rear alignment (it currently has 1/4'' toe-in and about 3.5-degrees of negative camber). We're getting the car aligned properly at NV Auto soon and will be sure to loosen up the rear with zero toe and less camber, plus adding a front splitter before our next track test should help balance out aero grip and make the car a lot more neutral than it was during this test.

If you open up more holes for cooling at the front you will compromise your aerodynamics; ie. increased drag, as for downforce; cannards, and a splitter for the front and a diffuser for the back. The hood should totally have vents. Kudos guys!

Looking to get a new toy, and since I'm a follower of Speed Academy, I am checking to see whats my options and perhaps get some ideas by watching your videos. I don't want a track car, but more like daily driver yet very capable car. (for example, i have a c63 but its auto only, and i had enough of it), so i was thinking maybe M3/335i or is300 (old school w/single turbo), any other options? 3 things are must: Manual (w/ clutch that is), Low dBA on highways, RWD.

+Roman Ash you're 6'11'' 250 lbs? Damn, you play in the NBA? :P I think you're on the right track with a M3 (you thinking E46 or E90/92?). Those are spacious cars so should fit you pretty well and they're tons of fun, great sounding engines when you get on the gas, but cruise nice and quiet on the highway for daily driving. It's a great all-around enthusiast car. We really like the IS300 too, and with a single turbo setup it would be plenty fast. You'd certainly have a lot more budget to play with if you started with a IS300 vs a M3.

Radiator fans do not move enough air while racing to make a difference in cooling. Fans are only there for slow driving like stop and go driving or standing still. Most Time Attack and full out racecars like Australian v8 Supercars do not run fans. If you had that much understeer from the wing, you should have put the wing on the lowest AOA or just removed it and you would have ran faster lap times.

Your engine is pulling in hot air from inside the engine bay. You need to separate the intake air from the hot engine bay air.

Thanks for the reply!!! Could you also say what jackson supercharger kit you got on it? Im 21 in the US Air Force and just bought a FR-S because of the way you guys made yours. They drive so nice but i want to make it faster than what it is. Thank you!

could have sworn somewere that american/ canadian gas uses a different octane rating system so our 91 octane would be similar to your 93 octane, with 100 octane gas (103 octane in europe) being rare but available
