    Chunks' Build

    Yea like i said i thought something was wrong when i first started it, sounded like i had a stock exhaust on the car from the front. Of course from the back the 4 inch exhaust changed that opinion haha. Itchy is right, Gloves and a long sleeve shirt are a must when working with the stuff, they...

    Chunks' Build

    Yes is does, glad im done with the manifold, passing it threw the tubes was a nightmare! Next is the down pipe. But at the moment with the SSAC manifold i have, i rotated the waste gate flange 90 degrees but now the outlet of the waste gate is so close to the down pipe i dont think i could get a...

    Methanol nozzle placement

    Rather then start a new thread about this, those of you with the AEM kit it says up to a 50% mixture is allowed. Anyone running 100%? Looking to run straight methanol so i need a kit that will work. Also does the AEM kit use a solenoid to control flow or does the AEM box PWM the pump? I...

    Chunks' Build

    Finished wrapping the exhaust manifold. Used a 50 foot roll of 1 inch and about 10 or so feet of 2 inch wrap. I used the black color Cool It Brand wrap. The biggest difference i noticed was how much quieter the car got. It completely deadened the noise the Tubular header produces...

    Oil in intake side of turbo, charge piping etc!!

    EGR and EVAP are separate systems from the PCV. PCV is a ventilation system. It allows pressure differential to escape/vent so it doesnt cause seals to blow out. It also allows any moisture to boil off and out along with any fuel in the oil. It runs from the throttle body to the two ports on...

    CPS Whining Noise?

    project drop it low

    Cutting a spring of linear or progressive design changes the spring rate. its just easier to recalculate the new rate on linear springs. Say you have a linear spring thats 10 inches long with a linear spring rate of 10lbs/inch and a coil spacing of 1 coil per inch. When you put 10 pounds...

    A rebuild is a good idea especially if its leaking oil. Its actually very simple and something i am very glad i did.

    Anyone know where the thread is on sumping a gas tank

    Stock tank is not sumped. It has baffels like most all other stock tanks to keep the in-tank pump submerged in fuel. Sumping is installing a section to the bottom of the tank towards the rear of the tank and installing fittings to feed an external fuel pump. Reasoning is most all...

    project drop it low

    Thankyou! Half the peole claiming impending death as a result have not even driven a car with cut springs. Before anyone replies, no it's not directed to anyone in this thread. This is a general statement. Being the springs are linear, knowing the rate and how much your removing would make...

    Kouki Tail lights??

    You don't need to have a masters. Just be able to put together coherant sentences that can be understood. I have herd the term used in the 240SX crowd and frankly it's the same deal. Does it really feel that much cooler/easier to say kouki then to specify a model year?
