jake has a point, even the NEWEST Gixxer 6's can barely beat BPU+ mkiv's from a 50-60roll. and the new Gixxer 6's beat last years Liter bikes, on the strip and around road courses... but thats mainly because the 6's are better in the turns anyways. from a roll, 600's and 750's will go down to...
yeah, you could pick up a pair of 1/2" thick T4 flanges off Ebay and get them welded together. i see that to be a common fix for spacing the turbo. how do you have your compressor housing clocked? i mocked up my T88H-38gk on a spare 7m and it cleared the runners on the XSpower manifold w/ the...
yeah, i was test fitting the wheels on my old car to make sure they would fit my black car. so since we were polishing the wheels, i put my car in the air and swapped them on. my friend wont let me take the wheels untill i find him new wheels to put his car on... thats why i bought these Volks...
well, thats true but a major factor is alignment too. my friend has 315's on his mkiv and it spins like crazy on only 16psi w/ his SP71gtq. its got too much negative camber and bad toe in. but the car was previously a low 10-second car, so i think his toe-links are shot and it just might not be...
you dont grease sealed bearings, and they generally dont need to be greased for a pressed-fit installatoin either. if anything, i would take a piece of 1000grit sand paper and WD40 and polish the inner race of the crankshaft itself so theres no rust, burrs or pitting that would hinder the...
well, its quite possible that since both the PP and the flywheel are USED... that the step is COMPLETELY wrong now. the clutch system is designed to work within a small range of thickness between the flywheel and pp. on a fresh PP and flywheel w/ a proper step, the clutch will loose its clamping...
the Mk3 has a different suspension geometry than other cars. the point at which the shock bolts to the unsprung area can drastically change the lever advantage of the control arm. im pretty sure thats how to explain it. one combo might work for a camaro but when putting it on the mk3, it may be...
they are perfectly fine for a stock rebuild. and stock motors have gone to 600rwhp, time and time again. ive never seen a stock rod fail from HP reasons. i expect stock rods w/ ARP bolts and proper machining to handle 800rwhp just fine. ive used those pistons in 2 builds so far and plan to do a...
if its a progressive power steering car, your connector could be broken or there just isnt connectivity from the solenoids in the rack to the PPS ecu. the PPS rack w/o the PPS connected feels like almost lke manual steering. once its hooked back up, it feels light and airy.
nope... my current car had a MINT burgundy interior and a MINT black exterior w/ no dings or dents. it had/has only 74k original miles. it was COMPLETELY unmodified and had $3900 worth of receipts dating back to 1998 from the Goodyear tire service shops here in this area of florida. the good/bad...
if it wasnt welded together, dont weld ti now. its quite possible that there will be flex between those 2 parts of the body and just rip the welds anyways.
man, you shoulda caughtme on saturday.
I:
-installed my new slave cyl
-bled the clutch hydraulics

-installed Defcon DP
-installed O2 sensor
-completed fuel system
-installed turbo heat sheild
Sunday, I:
-thought about removing shredded tires from the Fox body...
upgraded CT cars can run 12.2 @ 120mph? my friend has a stock-twins BPU mkiv w/ an Auto that has run a 12.0@122mph. he's barely breaking 400rwhp right now. we usually outweigh the MKIV by 200-400lbs. we would have to bring more than a 50rwhp advantage to the table to beat a BPU MKIV... they go...
