SAU has been recovered after a catastrophic hard drive failure.

The latest viable database backup we had was from 6am yesterday which means we lost 6 - 7 hours worth of data before the crash. It was during the 12pm backup that the first crash occurred followed by a 2nd crash at around 3pm.

I am sincerely sorry about this and I hope that everybody didn't lose too much content.

Any questions, please PM me.

Lachy, what's "ideal" camber and toe for my 33? In 16 years not one set of fronts has worn evenly. Even with 5 or so alignments in its life.

Think I need to tell them how I want it set.

Do you have adjustable front camber arms? If not your camber will be fixed.

Negative toe or 'toe out' increases inside edge wear so you'll want to steer away from that.

Positive toe or 'toe in' increases outside edge wear so if you run that with negative camber it will help to even the tyre wear out.

On your car where you want it to handle well and have reasonable tyre wear something like -1.5 degrees front camber and 1-1.5mm of toe in either side (2-3mm total) might be agood place to start?

Be interesting to see what your camber readings are like.

If you are running coilovers and a bit lower that could be where the uneven is maybe?

double check the post you quoted...

 

Tis all stock Brah. As if spend money on suspension when more engine powah awaits :)

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
