Outer Tie Rod End Stuck?
hardsteppa replied to theDETlife's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
"by ball joint splitter I don't mean a pickle fork" I did...cause they're cheap as sh&t and work just fine, as long as you don't have weak bony girl arms and have the strength to hammer the joint apart. -
Question For Those With Greddy Informeter
hardsteppa replied to Equilibrise's topic in Four Door Family & Wagoneers
in my experience via consult, the stock 02 sensor runs back>forth (cycles) around the middle of the scale. Consult displays as a gauge, and it cycles from probably 1/3 to 2/3 of the gauge..?....and my 02 sensor is a reasonably new genuine Nissan one. No experience with the informeter though... -

Outer Tie Rod End Stuck?
hardsteppa replied to theDETlife's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Is there any reason you don't want to use a tierod remover? I mean, that's what they're for, and i just went and bought one when i removed the bit you're trying to. It wasn't coming off otherwise. -

Rb20Det Into R33
hardsteppa replied to mattymatty4's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
friggin hell there is some retards on here. The dude quite clearly says he is aware of it not being the best option, and explains why he is doing it, to get a cheap car going. But no, everyone has to run him down and rubbish his ideas, cause it's not what 'they' would do. F&*ktards. If you have any info to help him, post it. Otherwise STFU and quit being keyboard warriors. -

R34 Conversion Useing R33 Kit
hardsteppa replied to skyline34circuit's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain

R34 Conversion Useing R33 Kit
hardsteppa replied to skyline34circuit's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
lol at no idea why, the clue is in the first line of your post. but... There have been some great men through history, men with a dream. Martin Luther King for his work in civil rights, Louis Armstrong being the first man to walk on the moon, and Tom Berenger for his role in the "Sniper" series of movies. OP you say it won't fit, I say NO, don't let the dream die so easily. Just because it's a part manufactured for a different model of car is no reason that it WON"T fit, you have to make it happen...but the path to glory is never easy. Don't give up my friend, persevere and in the end, you will emerge victorious, and stronger of character for the experience. My thoughts will be with you. -

Wires From Fuel Pump And Fuel Tank Won't Take Solder
hardsteppa replied to SargeRX8's topic in General Maintenance
Or if copper, refinish the surface with a light sandpapering and clean with shellite. -
I don't have a license to do roadworthy's but I've driven cars before and it looks fine to me. I think you should go back to him and let him know you have asked other people who haven't actually seen the car and been told it's ok and they should either pass it, or give you your money back on the RWC. You could also try the ol' "it's a factory option" line, but I don't know if it will work in this case...

Where To Buy Cone Lock Nuts (In Small Quantities)
hardsteppa replied to 260tech's topic in General Maintenance
Toyota exhaust nuts - m10x1.25 thread. Have a look and see if they're what you're talking about (sounds like they are). Used on a few different engines, definitely on the 3sgte's. Get them from any toyota parts dept, and cheap enough. -
Braking In An Auto - Which Foot To Use.
hardsteppa replied to blind_elk's topic in General Automotive Discussion
after reading this, yes I agree wholeheartedly, that yes, *YOU* should not try it as clearly you will become confused and a danger to other road users. So what you're saying is that all those professional race drivers should not be allowed to drive on public roads or hold a license. farken lolll, thanks o wise one, i will be sure to remember your words of wisdom , and you're certainly entitled to hold your own opinion, as is everyone else. My issue was with you crying down anyone who left-foot brakes as an idiot, without actually knowing anything about it. As said earlier it's a valuable technique worth learning, if you have the time/inclination./finished. -
Braking In An Auto - Which Foot To Use.
hardsteppa replied to blind_elk's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Yeah of course, you can't comprehend it so it can't be true. Indulge in a bit of self-education, i suggest starting with youtube. -
Braking In An Auto - Which Foot To Use.
hardsteppa replied to blind_elk's topic in General Automotive Discussion
I can't be the only one who's heard of left-foot braking in performance driving, surely, I mean i'm the first to admit I'm not even that flash a driver. And I'm not talking about the examples above of muppets driving round leaving their foot on brake, or not applying the technique properly. The idea is to make for a more smooth transition of the car; making it more stable when getting on/off throttle rather than the car shifting direction suddenly. I've only dabbled with it but you can feel the difference, especially when coming back on throttle out of a corner. Would take a lot of practice to have as a skill, but would imagine it would be a good thing to have as a performance driver. -

R33 Or R34 Tein Lowering Springs?
hardsteppa replied to rex12324's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
you didn't buy them off the seller on SAU by any chance did you? the guy that was selling Tein lowering springs for r33/34 that he said have been cut....? becuaee if you did then yes it would be safe to assume they have been cut...should be easy enough to see anyway -
