    Rotors and calipers

    How bad do you need the holes? Cross drilled rotors are meant to let excessive excess gas from braking escape. How heavy will you be braking? Its all relative etc. The only reason I ordered cross drilled for my Miata is because I couldnt get OEM replacement rotors, which is honestly what I...

    Rotors and calipers

    Brembo are OEM on alot of hardcore cars, such as Evo, G35, and I believe Porsches and Ferraris as well. Quite a reputable company

    Power steering pump Issues after Rack replacment

    I've been away easter weekend, so I havent been able to respond. I'm curious exactly as to why ATF cleans as well as it does then. Like I've said I regularly clean P/S reservoirs and tools with it...it takes shit right off. How exactly does it do it then? How wouldnt it work? The link...

    Power steering pump Issues after Rack replacment

    100%. My auto teacher (who worked for GM for 10-20 years, worked as an engineer for Merc-Benz) runs it through his diesel pickup and little gas turbo Sprint every once in a while to clean up the insides..gas lines, injectors, etc. Both have 300,000mi+ on them. Also, keep in mind that in auto...

    Power steering pump Issues after Rack replacment

    You really shouldnt have to clean out anything power steering related...our cars use ATF, which is notorious for cleaning stuff because of it's detergent content percentage. Its loaded with detergents. Therefore, since everything around it is usually cleaned, all of the crap would gather...

    Diff oil?

    Indeed. 80w90 LSD is the best oil for our cars. I personally prefer Redline and Royal Purple oils, though dont have experience with Redline. Perhaps Jeff can get an MSDS sheet on the factory oil to find out what is used. I think synthetics would work best though...synthetics actually are...

    Equation for Displacement

    2954.1919394141816870984890115018 Theoretically is the correct displacement from the factory lol Jeff: actually, I think what I was doing is leaving everything as mm instead of converting to cm by dividing by 10. An even easier way for the equation is to remember that except for...

    Equation for Displacement

    I've tried that before, and for some reason it never seemed to work

    Most boost..

    Bump. Looking for more people's opinions on a GT30R and also on running 18 psi on 93 pump. What would the desired A/F ratio be with emphasis on daily driving/reliability..11:1? 11.5:1? 12:1?

    Most boost..

    Well I'm looking for the best boost responce I can get, so I figured I should go with a slightly undersized turbo, however I havent found anyone whos actually had a GT30R installed on a 3.0 undersquare engine before. I'm planning on water spray for the IC, and a good sized IC as well, making...

    Most boost..

    Hey, what is a good safe number to run the most boost on with a stock internals? I'm planning on going GT30R and getting the most torque and low end out of the 7M that I can...but I was wondering at the same time if I could run as much as 18 psi on pump gas of 93. I want it to be as reliable...

    Anyone running a GT35R on a 7mgte

    The best way to look at compressor maps are to look at the innermost oval, and where the widest part of it is would be the most efficient part. On the side will be the pressure ratio...2.0 means you are running 1.0 of ambient (14.7 at sea level) and 14.7 psi of boost. thats the basic idea

    FFI dhort runner or long runner or meduim

    I know of the long/short runner theory, but does that still hold true for forced induction? The theory as I was taught was for N/A, just wondering if it still holds true... Reason I ask is because theoretically, you'll get boost sooner on short runners because less area to pressurize...does...

    Anyone running a GT35R on a 7mgte

    Let me just say you guys are fuckin crazy. I've decided the GT3076R (http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarrett/catelog/Turbochargers/GT30/GT3076R_700382_12.htm) is the turbo I want to go with for a bit over 400rwhp, though getting the .63 A/R because I want it to be a 100% street beast and...
