I'm surprised it took me this long to find this place, but hello.
My name is Paul Przyborski, and I'm a member of the D.C. area SCCA. I live in Pasadena, MD. Currently, I'm racing my *gulp* 1999 Hyundai Accent. I did pretty well in STS last year, but I've gone turbo and will be running in SM next season. I'm also building my 1981 Camaro for SOLO II and HPDE. I'm going to full CP route and have a lot of work left to do. If you want to see some of the stuff I'm working on, please visit my webpage at http://www.paul-przyborski.com Thanks, and I look forward to hanging out here. -Paul (IMG:http://www.paul-przyborski.com/misc/teardown18.jpg) (IMG:http://www.paul-przyborski.com/hyundai/images/events/ripken_062605_139.jpg) This post has been edited by Gimp: Dec 7 2005, 06:44 PM |

The turbo Hyundai is, um, slow. Not as slow as it was, but slow. I took STS in one series this yes, but the new turbo kicks me into SM.
The Hyundai has the following notable items. 87hp motor stock, about 115-125whp turbo (waiting to dyno) Full 36-way adjustable K-Sport coilovers (400lb front springs, 350 rear) PSC rear sway bar 15x7 Rota GT3 wheels with Falken Azenis RT-615 (Kuhmo 710s go on next year) Front and rear strut tower braces Tiburon front brakes (larger rotor/pison) Corbeau Forza seat Right around 2000lbs It's a fun car to drive on track, but it's also my daily and beats me to death. And if the stiffness doesn't kill you, the lack of a muffler will. The Camaro is a slow project, but it's coming. It's actually further along than the photo shows. Notables: Full fiberglass front clip 16x12 circle racing wheels with 14" rear Goodyears and 12" front 3-link rear suspension Tubular upper and lower control arms All seams fully welded Gutted 1LE front brake upgrade Ford 9" rear Working on the motor and some other stuff. Being a teacher, I don't see myself having this really ready for at least 2 years, but it's a fun project. I drove the car all through college and can't wait to get back behind the wheel. |
