Hey guys. I know its been a while, almost a year exactly but im back at it again. I have a new fully built motor ready to go. I sold my 93 240 as a shell to a friend with a rb25 and that motivated me to get my 89 out of the garage and fix her up. Currently im working on tubing the front end and gett...

There were a few things you shouldve done to find out where your compression was going but too late now. It all depends on what you want to do with the motor. If you were gonna rebuild it anyway then pull it and send it to the machinist to get it all looked over. If you dont want to pull it then loo...

300hp max you would have to be completely insane to do an sr swap. and swaping to a dual cam you also have to swap the rack and pinion b/c the pump and resivor is in different spots. go single cam with just forged pistons with 10 pounds and then your good ^UMMM NO. The rack and its position are exa...

Can you physically grab a hold of the pinion shaft where it mounts to the back of the driveshaft and move it in any direction? do you have any abnormal movement in your u-joints? Do you have movent in your c/v flanges where they go into the diff housing? could be a bad carrier bearing? If your pinio...

Sorry, yes i was asking a question. I now notice i didn't make that very clear. I know the z32 calipers bolt up to the stock spindle but i need the spec between the mounting tabs on either the caliper or spindle. The reason being is wilwood sells dual piston calipers with a greater piston surface ar...

s13 rear spindle/caliper bracket specs?
Im interested in the center on center spec between the 2 mounting tabs on a stock s13 spindle/caliper bracket/z32 rear brake caliper? All should have the same spec so any of these should do. TIA for any info. http://i476.photobucket.com/albums/rr128/BUBBA060/caliper.jpg http://i476.photobucket.com/a...

The arias pistons out of the box were .016 for the top ring and .014 for the bottom. When i asked the builder if he had checked them he said no, in a long and round about way trying to cover his tracks. He told me that they weren't to sure what to do, so they contacted multiple people and were told ...
