Ya actually if you take the joint apart, you will see grooves worn into the cup that the ball bearings sit in. And when you turn the wheel, the ball bearings will slide in and out of the grooves ca...
But, I did notice that my 200sx had a weak LSD when I first bought it. But it just seemed in general, that the B14 SERs were more hammered on. The diffs l...
Yes it matters. They are numbered 1-5 from the front of the engine to the rear (flywheel). On the end pieces (1 and 5) the machined end faces inward toward the crank, not outward.
Got the new head with S/R and SR16VE cams today. Looks really good, just gotta get the head resurfaced. The block will be getting resurfaced with the oil pump so that they are the same height, and ...
you can synchro shift easily in some transmissions. Seems the ones with the most mileage actually do better. Long haul trucks also synchro shift a lot of the time too.
There are situations where proper rev-matching will not produce any more wear than using the clutch. You just have to get it right, every time. I've driven cars that actually like upshifting withou...
The best time I have managed is a 13.3. I've even tossed the keys to a lot of my friends, and got the same time. I'm sure the car has more in it. It is just hard to get traction. Granted, most of m...
I've done a million passes, but I've never run slicks. I have no idea what to expect. But as long as I can average 420whp in my powerband I should be able to knock on the door of low 11s.
I have a spare computer you can use if you wanna try it out. then you can toss it in and see if it plugs in. The only 3 wires you really need to swap are for the rear o2 sensor. JWT has a write-up ...
As long as you are running an OBD2 computer you will be fine. Get the JWT computer it is the way to go and very simple. Get it reprogrammed and toss it in. Nistune doesn't...
I'm really diggin this setup. Money spent right. Very interested to see how the dyno goes as well. For a 1.8 with that kind of setup I imagine 200whp coming pretty easily. This head is stock? Port ...
clean her up. Get the preventive maint done. Then get rid of the factory exhaust. It sucks. Keep it quiet though, you don't want anyone thinking it is actually fast. Cause it aint.
What is to stop you from running a GA radiator with hose adapters, and using the stock trans cooler for your oil. The GA radiator is 1" thick anyway. I think it would hold up pretty good if underho...
yes. On a larger bore you will need slightly larger gaps. 86.5mm you could still get by on the 17 and 19. Any larger than 87mm and you prob would wanna go 18 and 20.
