  1. Hey guys, ive attached a picture to show what i mean better, but basically ive installed my new coilovers on the front of the car...and wanted to make sure i didnt screw up any of my spring rate settings....

    Basically, the only thing im concerned about, is when i was lining the new coilover kit up.....i lined up the top and placed through the two holes, and loosely screwed the two 14mm nuts....i then rotated the spring (yes the spring), which in turn rotated the whole unit which made it easy for me to line up the bottom of the shock to the thread, once it was in, it was smooth sailing, i never even touched any of the pallets at all....

    So my concern, was rotating the spring a bad idea?, im sure all rotating the spring does is compress it, uncompress it etc....

    Pic reveal a 1000 words, itll explain it better.

  2. Cool - good to know its not something overly bad - first time it happened i was not going to drive it and was turning back home, but as i was turning back on the way it all seem to fix it self, thats when i knew its a startup thing, so i have never really worried too much about it, once it gets going, its fine! - maybe 1 minute driving before its all ok

  3. Got the motor back, even 165 accross all 6, turbos have N1 labelled on plate, and also have Garrett M24 AR60 written on them, mechanic said they are ball bearing, and i can also hear them winding down just after the motor is turned off..would this mean they are deifinte r34 n1''s?

    Im getting a fuel pump fitted - bosh 040, and some injectors aswell (nismo 555cc), i wont need a fuel regulator will i??.

    Also deciding whether to go std power fc with hand controller, or d-jetro etc....???

  4. Hey guys, are these r34 n1's suppose to handle more boost than the stock setting, as ive just put in a rb26dett motor to replace my blown one from the r33, and the new engine feels the same - cant tell the different at all....though it is running stock boost right now - im not going to up the boost till my fuel pump and injectors + tune goes in, and until i know the new motor is all OK.

  5. Hey guys, im wanting to know whats a good reading for a compression test on an rb26 engine, i just got a new motor put in, and would like to make sure its going to be healthy for me.

    Basically the guy i bought it off advised me the readings he got before giving the motor to me were:

    165.7

    165.8

    167.3

    170.2

    165.1

    165.4

    Is this a healthy motor?, and i want to do a leakdown just to make sure....

    How much will it cost to get a compression test done, and wet/dry leakdown test???

    Thanks.
