Both rotellas are pretty stout. I like the synth 5w40. Cheap for a synth. Good year round.

^^^ Thought about those for the sentra. Sick tires. BFG. I have the GForce right now and they do ok. The DR should hold up a bit better.

wrong gear oil most likely. Try synchromesh? you just gotta be careful running the stuff. I shifted to 2nd by accident going 100mph and it slid right in. Felt funny, so I didn't let the clutch out....

im diggin it. Quick spooler for sure.

I would give the pennz a shot. It is made by Shell now and all the BITOG results for the new pennz comes up as really stout stuff. They don't publish IVA sequence IV wear results for the pennzoil, ...

permatex ultra grey. meets import spec and is compatible with all synthetics, not just group III. It's good for oil/coolant and 625*F continuous.

I'd like to see the transient response difference on the BB turbos vs the PT. The BB is hailed so greatly from the rally guys, and the drifters. I wonder if the gains in response are worth it. I lo...

Rotella synth ftw.

Most of the synthetics these days are still a group III, just like non-synths, but are far more durable because of the distillation/molecular structure. Just a lot more refine...

A lot of the pcv I see now are just a one-way valve. You shake it and hear nothing. I would take it off and replace it. Its only $2.

If you continue having problems make sure the crankcase venti...

Not to nitpick here, but i documented what I would consider to be an obvious flaw in the cometic design. The holes in the gasket that align with the dowel pins are too large, and this can cause the...

No CEL means I pass. Underhood I keep things a little untidy to keep people from looking too hard for other emissions equipment that doesn't actually function. AKA EGR. There is a method to the mad...

mine lasted one season. arp 2000 and cometic that is.

I have 20v and golden eagle going on next.

He has a 60-1, stock 2.0 cams with valve springs. Running a Honda ECU, tuned. Makes about 420whp on 13psi with 340wtq or so.

The car is no joke, it is fast. But he can't keep a transmission in i...

ya you guys are lucky you don't have this obd2 crap and strict emissions standards. The spec v swap looks great. Too bad it will cause a CEL on Obd2 cars.

I had pretty good luck with the heavy shockproof, even though i shattered 2nd. Perhaps I will continue using it as there seems to be no hope for me.

If I keep breaking transmissions I don't know...

I figure we can rebuild the trans and see if we can get it to hold up for just a few runs down the 1/4. But this P10 of his hasn't even gotten off spring pressure on the 60-1 (13psi) and he cant ge...

Breaking P11 trans

Those numbers are for the mustang.

You can't argue physics guys. there are mustangs that can run faster times 1/4 mile because they can make 1.5 60'. The rear suspension hooks really well. But l...

Cobra. 3700lbs. even with 500whp is only 7.4lb/hp.
ZO6. Stock. is around 6.8lb/hp.
B13 with 350whp is 6.8lb/hp.
Super sentra is 6.4lb/hp.

Now a cobra at 6.0lb/hp is going to need ~620whp to g...

some cool videos nonetheless. Stock GTR vs Mercedes.

12.9 for the GTR.

My friend's CTSV supercharged. I beat him at the drag...

I ran a cobra with the disco sentra I had. And even that car (capable of high 11s) got smoked on the roll against my 330whp sentra. We got it on video, but it is a highway race. I will link to if i...

so... the wire end came off from the wire?

IF so, then you should just get another wire from a junk yard, remove the old pin from the ECU plug, and slide the new wire with pin into place.

Onc...

yeah, if the wire touches anything when disconnected the light will flicker on and off.

still has charger on it? wtf :eek:

Anyway. I believe it is possible, but it just sounds like one of the most extreme cases. Like AMS evos. They can, but it is far from the norm.

My friend hit a 10 with a procharger on his 97 cobra on a built motor and higher compression. sprayed a 200 shot with it and blew it on that run lol. Then he sold the car.
