i didnt go with a split pipe on mine when i got my exhuast done, bcoz i think that the welding will crack alot quicker on the split dump pipes compared to the normal style ones bcoz of the heat, also the welds are most likely to be the weakest spots for it to crack. so less welds = less chance of cracking it, i reckon anyway.

Holy shit looks like you have been busy. You should have that completed by next week. HA!!!!!!

These coil overs mate, there is no were to adjust them as far as i can see, the rears have a brass cover over the top of them which does not want to come off unless there is a trick to getting them off.

But there has to be some adjustment because the ride is just to hard.

Also got some semi slicks yesterday. 275/35/18 Falkens AVENIS.

What are you doing today, do you want to look at this suspension of mine or are you to busy with your stuff.

Haha yeah its a task and a half isnt it! (who sprayed ur interior?)

I'm actually lucky i am doing this, because i've found 2 patches of rust, and its eatin right through the panels, both very close to the seams :D. So now gonna get the inside seam welded just to be sure.

Thats alright mate, maybe next weekend. How did you go at Noels is he getting it together. Thats the motor im talkin about.

Those semi's you got sub, Are they circuit or drag???

Well they are 35 series so assume they are circuit. But they are a shitload better. No wheelspin in third anymore nice and sticky :D

You have non damper adjust Teins then, which is pretty common. Non damper adjust come VERY firm/stiff unless they were ordered with a low spring rate, which sounds like your's weren't.

Best option for you is to just sell the Teins and buy some fully adjustable coilovers with a decent spring rate or some drag style coilovers.

    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
