Anyone try the different proportioning valves yet? I'm running B15 brembos, they are amazing. But there is a bit too much brake bias in the rear actually. 11" rotors in the back with 12" rotors on ...
I got the head on today. Only had a couple hours to work on it. I spent most of the time thinking. I got the head on by myself, which anyone who's done it before can attest... is a whore. But it we...
I like the feel of ripping 3rd gear, because with my 225 tires it still pulls you into the seat hard and pins you there until 4th gear. And 4th gear is handcuff territory, but it pulls so quickly t...
Gottdayum nissan f*d up again. That car is just gross. Looking at the side profile, hideous. the car adopted the fat-roll above the trunk like the versa.
I really hate how the front fenders arch over the tires, yet the rear doesn't follow suit. The lines are just... meh. The interior needs some black trims going on. No white or tan seats. I have a l...
What about the B14 with a B15 rear beam with a little less toe in? I can get the rear to swing around easily. Most of my understeer at this point is from power-on. But when you lift you get a bit o...
Got the head gasket yesterday. Took the head to get checked out. All is good. Perfect hold on all cylinders. So I'll be putting the head back on when I get the chance. My next day off is Monday. I ...
Got the new head gasket. I have a few days off next week. I'll take the head in and have a full inspection done, and perhaps cut the valves and seats a bit. Hopefully valve lash stays good. I do ha...
Incredible numbers. What compression are you running on this thing? What have you learned from this manifold building/testing that you can take out to possibly improve on?
I have no evidence that the valve ever contacted, So I am pretty sure it didn't. And the valve looks great, but I want to kinda get an idea on how lucky I got. I could s...
I did that to a few NX brake rotors. So far the Brembos have held up awesome. The only issue I have on the track is the rear brake bias. I am using an Altima MC and the rears will lock up before th...
I'm bringing this one back, as this happened to me recently. After looking over the valve and the seat, i cannot see any damage anywhere on the valve seat or the valve. I even took the valve out to...
Well, I don't see why all cars aren't getting 50mpg already. We have direct injection, 13:1 compression gas engines which see over 100% VE, then we put them into fat ugly cars and get 35mpg.
Considering this, brake pads at dealer are $200 a pair. I bought some Brake-best Selects, and they were garbage. I bought the DLG pads to replace those and they feel exactly the same as the OEM bra...
The valve reliefs on these pistons probably helped as well. They are extremely large and deep. And boy was I happy to see no marks from detonation on the pistons or combustion chambers. That means ...
That's what's scary lol. I revved the motor up, thinking it was a flooded cylinder. Then it stopped misfiring, and tapping. So, I just got VEry VEry lucky. :beer:
Greg, once again, is the MAN. Had a gasket in stock. He says it will be shipped tomorrow. Should be here by the end of the week. Next Sunday I should have time to put it together. Might as well put...
