Hey guys I've just recently put 19x11+20 on the rear of my V

And every time I go up a kerb or a high driveway the inside of my rear wheels scrub against my coilovers causing the locking collar to come loose.

Just wanting to know if anybody have the same issue with similar or same size wheels and is there a way to fix.

Thanks for your help

LOL... not sure if anyone has put 11inch wheels at the back.....

But to fix your problem, you can try using spacers to space your wheels away from your coils, but your wheels might either stick out of the guards or be rubbing against your guards...

PS... You can always try some narrower wheels...

Mines on coils with one of the collars removed, lipped rear guards, camber arms and a bit of tire stretch to make it all work without rubbing. The front is not as easy though. Brake & swerve or crazy angle & take you time seems to work best for me.

Check the geometry of yours, the top of the wheels cambers in as the suspension compresses, how much clearance do you have to make? With enough room to the rear guards, you may be able to run a small spacer depending, but they aren't ideal.

Good luck

      Cas issue

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
