I've contacted ATS to see if it would be possible to enter my 300D for some 1/4 fun-run drags on August 1-2. By then I should have most everything done except a Myna pump, water injection and internal transmission modifications.
1982 300D VNT Modifications: M-Pump, Holset HE341Ve VGT turbo, A/W intercooler, W115 300D intake, straight pipe exhaust, #265 nozzles, 2-micron Baldwin fuel filter, W126 Gen-II 300mm brakes, battery relocated to the trunk, HVAC systems removed, 15mm rear sway bar, 3.46 diff, Mobil1 15W-50 synthetic oil and Galant front seat. Down for Holsetification.

The Sunday portion will be open to diesels in general so you don't have to have a truck to race. Look forward to seeing you out there!

Since the current pump needs replacing, I'm planning on swapping in the "stock" M-Pump and turning it up. If I can find a 98-99 E300's pump for cheap I might have an injection shop swap in the elements and calibrate it.

Well, at this rate the Holset won't be ready for the race and the M-pump won't have the 6mm elements. I don't want to put the GT22V on the 300 since its working so damn well on the 240 I don't want to disturb it.
I'll probably just max out the m-pump, turn up the T3's boost and increase the modulator pressure. Although I'm not sure if I even want to bother without the Holset.

Are you going out to bandimere? in Co I might show up there for the hell of it. I don't think my 240 will be set up by then though!

I started installing the Rajay turbo on my 240 today and if I can get it running in time I'll bring it up and run it! What needs to be done for tech inspection I think I need a water reservoir bottle any thing else I should worry about?

I've never been part of the races, but what I've read so far for a street car to pass is an overflow bottle (I'm not sure if I need one since it uses an expansion tank), a battery tie down, a working neutral safety switch, seatbelts and good tires.

My 240D is the same way so I think it would be acceptable since its factory.

Good luck finding one! I have only come across one set in the junkyard. If you do need one, I have 1 spare. Worst case, I have some cargo straps.

The 300D is finally track-legal. Last August I had to use an old washer bottle as a catchcan because the track requires a 16+oz coolant container, even if the system is an expansion tank type.
The bracket is from an early-80's Mazda RX-7 and the tank is from a 90's Mitsubishi Montero. Its bolted to one of the old battery tray mount holes.
Note: Don't worry, green is only for the intercooler circuit. The engine uses the correct yellow.
