    Great Street Tires

    in Brakes, Wheels, Suspension and Chassis

    Posted

    I just had my new 235/40/17 Bridgestone SO3s installed today and I have to say they are the best grippn street tire I've ever had.

    After breaking them in for a couple hours of driving, it started to rain. Boy that's where they really shine.

    With my old Summitommos, if it was wet out, I could really get hurt fast when my turbo came on. Not any longer. They are very hard to break traction on wet ground, and same goes when dry.

     

    Love em'

    Will Infinity M30 CVs work?

    Update:

    I guess I put out this post to fast...

    I just learned that the bolt pattern on the wheel side is a little differnt, so the end peices would have to be swaped out with the ZXT ones for them to work.

    Still, to have the binding issue solved with shorter shafts, ( with some mods ) is good to learn.

     

    I would still like to hear from someone who has used these please.

     

    thanks

    my rearend is out of whack

    Ya know, I'd sure like to hear from someone also that knows what's the cause of this. Mine is exactly like what your describing your to be like.

     

    I put a long strait edge against the outer rim and couldn't belive how much the pass side wheel was pointing in at the front of the wheel.

    Like you, my driver side was in but not as much.

    I thought maybe me having so much tourqe at the rear wheels, that maybe it some how tweeked things that way, but their has to be another cause????

     

    Any other ideas anyone??

     

    Thanks

    I thought I would save a buck or two and have my set made, well it ended up costing pretty close to what MMsport charges. It's up to U, if you know a good machine shop and someone that works there, go for it...

    I did have a problem with the emergency brake cables chewing up the boots on them, been there, done that, kinda thing...damm..

    Dyno run done!

    Thats fairly close, I measured mine against a regular stroke before use and came out 2lbs differnce. Although I'm using the Findanza (spelling?) Alum Flywheel, I still wish I'd have had a few lbs taken off just for shits and giggles.

     

    My motor dosen't seem to mind the extra arm weight though, so I'm not complaining, just wishing.

     

    Again, I think we all know that when it comes down to it, a properly sized turbo/ wastegate set up is the key to lag... .02

    Myself also would be very intrested in a nice aftermarket harmonic ballancer, as I've already gone thru 4 oem ones due to cracks at the key way. Like TimZ, I would like to continue using my a/c, with the need for a double groove.

     

    Seems that before I went to the stroker crank, I never had that problem. Also I can say that having to cut so much material off the back side of the dampner for the TEC2 trigger wheel install, it dosen't stand a chance of lasting very long.

    Mine has also spun the outer groove peice off it's rubber absorber, rendering the timing marks useless.

     

    So... if anyone comes up with a hit on a better replacement, I'm all ears...

     

    thanks

    Hey Ron, without me speaking to them yet, I'm still kinda in the dark on what peices you actually get with the Pro. kit for $739.

    Does the EGO sensor (most importantly) come with it for that price?

     

    Thanks

    Figured out a new turbo Monster.

    This is only a T-61 but combined with stand alone, proper fuel flow, air flow, and LOTS of proper tuning, I hope to be in the same league with TimZ and James soon.

    James, you ready for me to come back out there for another tuning session? hehe

     

    I hope I did this pic stuff right...

    OVERHEATING!! ---- HELP!!!

    in Miscellaneous Tech

    Posted

    Well, going back to basics solved the problem. I didn't think the fan clutch would be no good after a short few thousand miles. I guess aprox 400 - 4-- turbo'd rwhp is heck on a simple fan clutch.....

    Anyway, things are under control with the cooling situation. Thanks for the help.

    I have a Motorsport Auto 4 row rad. in like new cond. and its not keeping my water temp below 195-212, sometimes as much as 215 with air cond on.

    Would changing out to an ALUM rad. solve this issue, considering of course everythings in good working cond.

    I want to not have to worry about overheating ever, even at idle with air on in 100 deg. weather.

     

    What would be the best fix for this problem?

     

    Thankz

    I spoke with a guy named Fred @ FJO and he told me that I could use the TPS voltage input spot in the Tec2, to datalog with the Tec2 and FJO WB unit, then compare the voltage #s to the sensors calib. chart? Since we don't have a 0-5V input in the Tec2, does this sound like it's feesable??

     

    I don't know, it sounds kinda complicated for my simple mind...hehaw..

    Wish I had the AEM setup??? arrgg..

    This all sounds great, and what I'm looking for.

     

    RICK, have you been able to come up with those pics and or graphs yet?, I'd love to check them out.Also, how about lining me up with where you bought your set up.....

     

    THANKS ALL
