Progressive Tiens suck balls, had them in the s14 to start with, crashed though all the bumps on the street, then got all rolly on the track, worst of both worlds.

Compared Tiens with Kings? I'd be interested to know your opinions of each if so...

hey nick,

the XXR 527's in 18x9.75+20 that you had what did you need to fit them when you had the tien progressive springs?

i'm thinking im gonna go same same... $800 you cant go wrong lol

also i'm thinking 245/40/18

I ran 17s on the XXRs, 17x9.75 +24 iirc and had 255/40

sup

is it just me or does every evo 8 have a different shade rear bar?

ive looked at so many and i think in all of them, the rear bar is a different tinge/shade compared to the rear quater panels

surely not all of them have had touch up / spray work ?

bumpers are always a different shade as it's plastic compared to metal, and there is something with the paint when it is applying so the shade is always off a little

Hmm... Tiens it is then :P

Srsly tho... Whatever I find cheapest hahaha

I had teins, they were ok. But I would just spend the money and go BC coils, there could be a chance you get knocking front struts like I did. Iirc it was pretty common in 7s

I'd say so, look the best on the ct chassis

true, have seen a few with these. i like the 521's a bit, i think.

or maybe some varrstoens.

or i'm thinking some rpf01 in 9.5 +15 in SBC... delicious.

show and shine is in feb, 15th I think, Como park booked out till then.

for the S14 cracked it and went straight to Coil overs.

Had white line in the BB b4 it and they were bearable, pretty stiff and sagged a bit but was mainly looking for drop so that was fine.

Kings in the ute (well the front) and they seem quite nice to daily drive on. way too soft for track tho.

shout-out to an old member #@M34N ?

anyone know steve personally? had a R34 and a V36. hasnt posted since 2012. Used to work with the guy, havent seen him since like 2009 or something.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
