Product Ideas thread

[Vansquish]

It's come up a few times in the past, but if you could create something to remove the slop from the OE transmission, that would be great. I know I have around 0.75"-1" of side-to-side play when I'm in any given gear. There are a couple of threads out there that have covered some of this before.

That said, if you can come up with a solution, you'll be the only ones on the market who have, and I guarantee that a lot of us would pay to have your "fix" on our cars!

I had these on my old honda. It was like a socket joint inside of the bushing. Removing a lot of slop from the cable.

Something to prevent said dickbaggary mounting jobs would be nice. 2nd vote for battery relocation kit to the rear.

2nd on the mount kit, I have a DVC-30 kit sitting in a box in my garage because I can’t bring myself to mount it half-assed but that is all the time I have at the moment (plus... winter...).

A fmic kit for the speed6 would be amazing. If it came with a crashbar replacement as well I'd personally come to your hq and give each of you blowies.

How about ...... a traction bar for the 3`s....Camber & caster kits....rear adjustable toe arms ...

[Dumbguy]

I agree with the meth kit mounts. That sounds like a good idea. What about shift cable upgrades? No one has anything like that to my knowledge.

[NCspecV81]

How about taking your meth/tb spacer a step further and adding one or two injector bungs on top?

My 6 should be running by the end of the day tomorrow and my wallet is ready for new parts.

Bring them on!

True coilovers for the speed3 to get rid of the rear independent spring, track specific type setup would be rad

There are already great coil overs for the 3, or you could get some custom stuff made pretty easy. There are plenty of guys doing great on the track and ax with the available options.

What would be the benifit, of putting the shock inside the spring in the rear anyway.

[Mauro_Penguin]

A 4th/front engine mount for the ms3's or ms6 would be nice. Turbine tech is the only company that makes them and it's retarded expensive, won't fit with front mounts, and not always in stock.

Also something like the whiteline anti lift kit for the gen2 would be nice since the one they make only fits the gen 1. It helps with squat, steering, and provides some positive caster.

Hoping to surrender my anus and wallet to you!

[Poohster]

How about oil return line for BT on MS6. Let's get rid of the OE crappy one. just a thought.

Besides fucking up the handling, I can't think of any.

How about a Brack Friday Bunduru?

Or just a Black Friday Sale.

Matt, since 2008 you have never done me wrong...my JBR RMM is starting to look tired and worn...and I hear nothing but tales of how your RMM is basically like having Jesus riding a unicorn massaging your engine. Are you doing a Brack Friday deal on these?

[Matt@DamondMotorsports]

Awesome suggestions guys. I'm gonna be working quite a bit on designing some parts this week.

You mean like this, LT Dan? Damond Motorsports Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale!

Another idea I had while at an install meet this past weekend.. Your methanol TB plate has 6 ports for nozzles, but *most* of us will only utilize two. I don't know about other guys but having a solenoid close to the nozzle is pretty tough without having to get creative with zipties. How about some sort of mounting plates that will utilize unused methanol nozzle ports so we can easily mount things close to the nozzles (solenoids, check valves, failsafes)?

It's interesting, but while it won't work for the MS6 trans.

The Subaru transmission is mounted directly beneath the shifter, so you're actually modifying the shift mechanism, rather than one end of a cable-operated device. It also wouldn't address the issue that I'm talking about. The issue we have with our transmission is the amount of slop while IN gear, not the amount of lateral movement between gates.

Make a Miata part, I'll buy it, don't care what it is.

Thanks for the mention brown bear.

Aluminum subframe bushings???

How about a stainless steel clutch line for the ms3's?

Still waiting on that 4th engine mount as well...

I am pretty sure that I am a front mounted speed 6 and I still have my turbine tech front motor mount on the car still. @WetzMS3; can verify this since my car is in his possession right now.

Treadstone TR1035 with CX racing piping kit.

Front camber plate - rear chassis brace

[Cujo]

The white piece that fits into the shifter. The stock one is so sloppy.

or the locking ring that goes on the shifter that breaks when you try to swap in a short shifter.

I can and do confirm. Front mount is still in use.

I think FMIC fitment is most difficult with the TT front mount on Gen Won MS3s, due to the elaborate longitudinal bracing...

I have ideas to solve those issues.

I don't doubt it.

Supposedly the c-pe FMIC has been fitted to a Juan with the TT front mount, but that also might've been back when their piping was smaller (didn't it get bigger at some point??)...

I want a front mount for a 3, that is made by someone who will send me an invoice.

Bundle it with a throttle coolant bypass and you have the ‘heat’ part ready.
