afternoon all.

Woo top gear night! :)

I don't think there are any laws on camber itself. HOWEVER. when looking straight down from above the car, the entire tyre (including at the bottom) must be inside the line of the guard. So having epic offset and using camber to tuck the front level/inside the guard, but leaving the bottom outside the guard, will not be legal.

this, technically my car doesnt pass.

Come now Tony, i'm allowed to be curious!
Besides, i would like to run a little bit of camber, just enough to assist the rims in tucking correctly when underload/cornering
At some stage i will probably get a slightly smaller offset rim, but it would be nice to have my current ones not scrub when climbing uneven driveways etc...

Camber is nice but destroys tires on a daily basis. I know what your trying to do. Only a little camber will get those wheels of yours tucked in. I wouldnt worry too much, and it will get noticed anyways :)

I've heard 3* is the most suspension places will dial arms in at... Weather this is true or not I don't know.

Also camber ftmfw, I run my front camber arms maxed out you know... For extra hectics lol. And my rears are fairly angled as well :)

3 is silly for the road.

Drag racing should have 0 camber for tractions?? I try and get as much out as I can, as the standard setup has enough as it is once you've lowered a little. I want less on my rears, and better tires.....

Who needs boost, don't have any boost ATM and chop cars + does mad skids lol

bring it.

think my manual, run in tune would be quicker than yours.

atm its capped at 6k.

wait, does yours even go to 6k?

for drags, a tiny bit of neg, then it goes to 0 with squat.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
