Hard to find reliable dyno results that help my selection Thinking G30- 660 twin scroll 1.06 Problem is my current setup isn't imo terrible. This is the genuine flog it at the track tune so there is a few kws in it but pulled for track safety Non VCT RB25DE home built and has baby 256 Poncams, 60mm throttle body. 90mm exhaust and decent ARC cooler with Emtron KV8 Would like to break 400rwkws on 20psi and want a bit more through the 4,000rpm range. New setup needs to beat attached dyno -
Hey y'all, had some bad ball joints in my tie rods, so figured i'd just replace both inners and outers. Went with the high-misalignment system from GKTech. My car's lowered so figured why not. M14 Super Adjustable Inner Tie Rod High misalignment S13 240sx/S14/S15/Skyline tie rod ends (12mm/14mm) Welp, took over a week to get the job done, but finally did. Took it on the maiden voyage today and... - The OE boots do not sit properly on the new inner tie rods - If you look at the photo in the link above, new ITRs are basically threaded all the way through the length of them, so best I could do was tighten the boot down with a screw-down hose clamp onto the ITR's threads. - There is a "whoosh"ing sound every time I turn the steering, seems like it could be coming from the air moving into/out of boots. Concerning, bc it'll likely pull in nasty shit from the outside when I turn... namely thinking of moisture. - Looking at the rack from the back of the car, under it, the left tie rod is straighter than the right. Right droops down a bit. - My alignment is way outta wack, that's expected. Taking it to get an alignment as soon as I can. - The big thing is that the steering isn't really "springing" back like it used to. Wondering if there's something tied to pressurization of the system that I managed to f**k up. This was supposed to be a 20 min job... why doesn't anything ever go right with these cars? -
