Re: CC White bunny throw out bearing

It's 2020 bro, gps based or bust! ;)

Mind you, I did that gauge cluster like 8 years or so back.
Everything still works flawlessly ...speedhut stuff is great, lifetime warranty is nice too.

Re: CC White bunny throw out bearing

Touches, I just rather grind a little material off the shifter itself than scuff up my nice trim. And yes , the sheer size and weight of the tranny def gives me confidence to bang some shifts....can't wait to test it out when I get back to fl.

400z proto

What you fellas think? Personally I'm not a big fan of the front end, but I must give nissan credit for developing this vehicle 100% on their own. The fact that it has a manual transmission is shocking and welcomed. I doubt it will be a supra fighter just based on the transmission but at least it sh...

Re: Hitting a wall at 4500rpm [SOLVED]

Glad you got it sorted... As for your timing, .look at a full ignition timing map for stock ka24de.....IIRC it commands somewhere around 28 to 30 degrees of timing in the higher rpm/ high load section for NA setup. That's where you start to pull 1 degree for every psi of boost you make for a ball pa...

Re: Hitting a wall at 4500rpm

Is that a typo where you said you are retarding one degree per psi but yet you posted 15 degrees for 5 psi?? If that means your running 10 degrees at 10 psi.... Your ignition timing is extremely retarded. When I'm doing a ballpark tune for low boost on the street to get my fuel maps right, I pull on...

Not gonna lie, I just skimmed the thread so you'd be rightful to yell at me if this was already discussed. Have you tried using the exhaust as a scavenge to pull out crank case pressure? I'm trying to decide what would give me more vacuum....pre turbo or exhaust. Obviously preturbo with the catch ca...
