Thank you! It was great to finally be back on track. The Voleex ran like a train, and we ended up winning Class C by 30 laps and in 14th place overall out of 76 cars. Staying on track the whole time pays dividends. We won Class B in 2018, were overall Class A winners at Gingerman last year, and with the Class C win last weekend, we've got them all now.

For the ECU, I race with the Frankenstein Motorworks guy (MR2 swap kits with 2GR V6s and 2AR 4 cyls - I've raced the 2AR MR2 and it is phenominal). He knows ECUs well and might have something, but Great Wall could use totally different programming, however I doubt it.

I need to replace bearings all around and check ball joints, in addition to figuring out how to lower the car - i'll start measuring stuff when I'm in there.

Congrats! Looks like you'll be in class B next time?

I think I talked with him when I went last summer--had a white MRS with a 2GR in it? Good guy, had lots of great info for a prospective LeMons driver.

I was going to suggest looking at Yaris sedan suspension parts but I have no idea what unibody the GW is based on. Probably something proprietary from China?
