Yeah, I am certainly aware of the effects of excessive lowering. I don't want it dumped on the ground (just lowered and leveled out, I hate the saggy ---), that was a side effect of what I was...

Nothing to update, but here is a neat pic I took from my webcam at work.

A slightly rare'er group of cars.
From left to right......
Stock suspension is back on for now. I want to drive this car this winter, and having it slammed on the ground might not work so well for that.
I have the suspension figured out though and I know...
Mine has less than 2k on it with venolias and oil pressure is great.
However, my head does seem noisier than your typical 8v. There is a bit of clatter in there.
I'll figure it out sooner or...
I have this same problem as well, exactly.
I can rail thru all the gears and not have a problem, but if I am cruising on the freeway and mash in 4th or 5th the light comes on. I havent seen any...
Having driven a BRZ quite a bit and plenty of old TD shitboxes I can say they are for two different crowds (obviously). The BRZ is not intended for the market that would even consider a FWD car.
...
Not sure if there are any fake DW pumps out there yet. I know I havent seen any pop up yet and Mike at DW hasnt let us know anything yet.
The place I work is one of their bigger vendors (if not...
I thought this was an 11 second van already? :eyebrows:
Spacers made and installed. The thumping is seriously reduced but with the additional height I have a new issue, camber.
The SRT-4's don't seem to do the camber adjustment at the knuckle like...
I bought mine from fiveohmotorsport.com and I could not be happier.
I used the OEM spacers that were on the outside of the stock setup and moved them on the inside with a nice thick washer as well. Actually worked out really slick.
I am really certain the...
White is a great color for the H bodies.
Yeah it seemed like it went in far enough. It certainly stopped the oil spewing out of it.
The more I am reading things it seems like axle bind is the likely culprit. For now I think I'll just...
It's probably 3" lower than it was. I really did not think it was going to be that low. There is certainly a possibility it is the axle angle causing it, but I can't help but wonder if my...
I'm not sure this is going to work, LOL. If I roll the fenders I can drive it no problem, but I now have what feels like a axle induced thump under acceleration. When i was installing the coilovers...
Those look an aweful lot like the overlays I designed, LOL.
Thank you for the information sir. I am going to pull the stock struts this weekend and take a peek. Some added caster sure would be nice, but since I am in this purely for the asthetics it's not a...
Sorry to bump an old thread but even after reading this whole thread I am kind of unsure still. This is for my SL.
I just got a set of Tein Super Street coilovers for an SRT4 for a killer price. ...
Silly question, what kind of boost gauge do you have? Have you tried another?
I've never seen a vehicle idle at 20in/hg up here, LOL. That would be neat!
On decel I see about 23in/hg. Looking at my math from last night I think I was off a bit. I usually see about 14in/hg...
8" seems super low.
The Lancer pulls about .4-.5bar (11-14"ish).
Those are the exact demons I have been fighting. My idle stays the same, but one day I will have it running great and knock free and the next day it just wants to light up the CEL everywhere.
I...
I guess now I can list some of the mods I have done.
First thing... PLX OLED Wideband. I needed to know where things were sitting. I went with the PLX because the OLED display could display...
I just hold grudges against RMR.
It may be better now, but I remember how often I have been treated like ---- in the past. I also remember the very obvious favortism by the staff (bringing...
It came with a FWDP Stage 5 cal. I did not like a lot of aspects of how it ran, so I went ahead and bought an Ostrich and started making my own calibrations.
Yes indeed. Dave said it was...
