The bolt should have snapped, if the block cracked then the block had damage before. The block is cast iron and will not crack due to a bolt. I'm also wondering that if you cracked the block while bolting on the filtermount, WTF happened to the filtermount ? If nothing happened to it then you've...

I've made a custom 2" high + widened cowl with reverse scoop hood. Just tell me and i'll link the images (it's not painted yet but it's on the car and being prepped)

Running a set of Dunlop SP9000's (225 and 255). I have no idea how they hook or hold... engine went with only 500km on the tyres. What i do know is that they are loud... Way louder then the stockers with 225's. Had some el cheapo tyres on them from the previous owner.

Hmm more info :) Good reading, very understandable :) Sorry for the threadjack but this is great info :)

So much for the reading up :) Thanks for the info, i might aswell look into these then... How much do they run approx. ? Thank you very much jdub :)

Damnit... i'll have some reading up to do :D But how does it work ? How does it dampen ? Sorry for coming off like a dumbfuck... i know my way around these cars but this is new for me :D

Kind of wondering, but what are the exact expected benefits of this thing over the stocker ?

I _might_ look into it... seeing that i'm not at all pleased with the way my supie brakes at this time... might have to bleed it a few more times though. It's like allan said, if your current calipers are up for replacement then it'd be interesting.

I think Allan has a point there. If you're already locking up the brakes then the calipers are already outpowering the pads. You'd actually need a bigger padsurface to stop locking up. Which will then result in more usable stopping power. It doesn't really matter if you'd put 16 pistons on a...

I think it takes a whole lot excitement out of the game, dragracing should be on a track. Yes it's safer, but no where near realistic. You're missing the aerodynamic part, the traction part, the acceleration part and most of all, the thrill of racing. Your basically not gaining an inch at all...

FINALLY, i've read all 18 pages (yes a mere 18 here ;)) and i still have a car specific question. I'm in the proces of getting my 88T up and running. Other then my RC550's, SP61GT@9psi and a 3 - 3.5" DP (approx ;)) my car/engine is stock (yes a stock non metal HG too). I have a Lexus AFM but...

I've heard (read) stories that the OBX camgears are made out of weak / soft material and will eventually damage or break the timing belt. Might check into that before buying camgears of any kind

They indeed are the same, my T DS fits perfectly in my N/A Hanger bearing. Maybe check the rear subframe for cracks ?

Make sure the engine is tuned properly, maybe go MAFT Pro but stay away from FCD's, even if they're adjustable.

Thanks for the pointer :) i've looked at the online tsrm but must have overlooked it :x Thanks a bunch :)

Anyone ?

Hi, Like i said in the topictitle, i'm looking for the partnumber on the USDM spec 89+ taillight lightholders, the white things that you plug the harness in and screw the bulbs into that click into the back of the "glasses" . Thanks in advance :)

I installed a HF metal Cat in my exhaust "system" too a few months ago. Helps keep the noise down and it'll make me pass inspections (i hope :D). Cost me about 180 euro's which would be close to the 200 dollars you are reffering too. It's a 200cells HF metal Racecat... but the supe sure doesn't...

It's a nice gadget and maybe someone could get used to it, but i for sure wouldn't. I'd rather look down on my gauges but once you've driven a car for a certain period you just know how high you are revving and how fast you are going (or at least have a decent idea ;) ). The idea basically is...

That's what i was thinking, after 4k rpm boost could be higher then below. If the BOV's spring is not up to the job it'll open. Maybe just a little but enough to get a hissing sound
