whiteline adjustable swaybars front and back, both on hard setting

pineapples in the rear, set for max squat, shoulnt effect it i dont think ?

tyres are crappy china spec atm, 235/45/17 front, 255/40/17 rear

alignment is fine, no wobbles even at high speed

Soften the front sway bar first to deal with the understeer, but if you've got rubbish tyres this might be more dangerous unless you're handy with opposite lock.......

i will soften front and see how that is, booking in for new rear tyres asap so was wondering wether or not to do fronts too, might aswell i suppose

i aint no D1 drifter but yeh i can steer through most situations lol, never over corrected yet touch wood :laugh:

thanks for the replies :D

More air in the front tyres. Less air in the rears.

Soften the front suspension. Stiffen the rear suspension.

More front camber. Less rear camber

Probably get some decent tyres.

booked in for bridgestone adrenalins all round tomorrow, will see how that is.

if need to will soften front springs slightly, if still not working will soften front sway bar.

psylor, cant stiffen rear swaybar, as i mentioned its already max stiff :happy:

ur gonna adjust spring rate before ARB's? u realise springs are at least $100ea, whereas adjusting sway bars is free right?

haha yeh mate, read up a bit, adjustable coilovers. cheers :)

also new adrenalins made a bit of diff already. will keep fine tuning. cheers for all replies guys :)

yeh i know, but from what i read sumone suggested to "maybe soften the front dampers up abit, get more grip on the front"

just read back, i did say "soften front springs" meant dampers, my bad lol

yeh as mentioned that doesnt give u adjustment in ur springs, only changing springs changes the spring rate.

damper adjustment is more complex than what it seems, ur better off adjusting ur sway bars as that will give more predictable results.

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
