    HE351VE and its fricken flange

    Soooooooooooo, anyone making any headway on this? I still don't have a motor, so it's a No for me, but I believe that I have a good idea about how I am going to control the VGT actuator. I'm planning on doing it old school mechanical sytle with a wastegate and a $10 manual boost...

    Joined a gym. What to expect.

    Well, I'm gonna put my $.02 in. I did the workout thing for a while while I was in the Navy, but I suffered an injury which resulted in my ankles and back being completly f*cked. I was discharged from the Navy (60 lbs heavier). Long story short, 4 years later, my girlfriend talked me into...

    HE351VE and its fricken flange

    I think that the problem mostly originated from a couple of sources, A). the soot from the diesel wasn't so friendly for the VGT portion, and I personally don't like to see electronics mounted a few inches from the Hot side of a turbo. I've got a couple of ideas for control of this system, I'm...

    HE351VE and its fricken flange

    I'm actually in the middle of the same thing. I'm just going to get a fleabay china manifold and hack it up and re-enforce it. that dam turbo weighs in at 48lbs. I already got the flange (also ebay special). Plus the turbo doesn't have a divided flange. save the good header until you run...

    edit: Link fixed, http://www.swiftsprings.com/products-coilover_springs.html http://www.swiftsprings.com/file/metric.pdf That should help you out. You can get springs with basically any spring rate for your coilovers (4-34Kg) I can't help you out on which ones to get though. You'll have...

    Pros & Cons of Aluminum Con Rods

    I'm gonna go with the rest of the clan on this one. I'd personally opt for the Ti rods vice the AL ones. Here's a good little article to read, as I'm sure that you've already done your homework looking into this...

    I thought that it was supposed to be parallel to the lower control arm.

    did some steering angle work today. turning to the right the saw blade bottoms out on the sway bar now, and going left, it hits the bump stop about 2-3 mm before full lock on the rack. I moved the tie rod mounting point 27mm inwards. I still need to get a tapered bit for the bottom side, but...

    Hi, I was wondering a couple of things. I'm currently pricing out having a new rack CNC'd that's 50-60mm longer than stock to add more travel, and more steering angle. I've already added the tie rod ends, but I don't really see how adding the tie rod ends is gonna add more angle. The rack...

    USDM 2j into a 1j'd shell

    I just realized that the shell that I bought was previously wired for a 1J. I just ordered my 2J, with a USDM 6 spd harness. I'll be running an AEM also. Any ideas of where to start? Should I just bite the bullet and pick up another body harness? I'm kinda leaning towards that one since the...

    just finished painting the engine bay, and started putting things back into the engine bay. The paint didn't turn out 100% like I wanted it to-mostly because I tried to use a clear, and it caused some peeling/cracking. Advice to others: 1. sand/rough as much as humanly possible. I was...
