[mitcheyismyname]

Beefy. ass. tire.

 

[Scoot]

With stupid amounts of grip...

Think a 215 Star Spec should be enough grip? lol

Nice! Looks like it's in great condition. That's way less than that one on craigslist, or was it from that guy?

 

[Scoot]

Diff guy. Only thing the guy on Craigs had the Foam too which I need but I think some tape n glue can put mine back together.

 

[Sleepy_Steve]

I still gots mine!!

 

[Scoot]

[Sleepy_Steve]

Better idea.... Go buy some NT-01's and tell me how they is.

Then if you say they work the right way, I'll buy a set later.

 

[Scoot]

Better yet. I go and get another set for the same price I got those. Free

 

[unreal-]

holy shit those are some beefy ass tires!

 

[Sleepy_Steve]

holy shit those are some beefy ass tires!

Yeah, they also have a tread-ware rating of 60.


These tires do have grip for days though.... I can't even imagine what it feels like to drive around on some hoosiers; lol purple crack.

So it looks like she will go into the shop before Summer (Sometime in August)
She will be Fully Repaired and Painted
- Same Color
- Trunk will be done in Matte Black (Of course )
- Front & Rear Windshield Trims will be replaced

Right after she comes out she's going up on stands to swap the sub-frames out (Some of you will want to kill me for even driving it the way the Sub-frame is but I have no choice)
- in doing so I will replace the CV boot's because 1 is ripped and it doesn't look like there's any more lube left in there

After that's done I will need to save up yet again for a Clutch job which will consist of a RB/Z32 set-up and a Rebuilt Trans
Quick run down of the Parts for the Trans/Clutch Job
- Spare Trans to do the Rebuild on
Will consist of:
- New Bearings
- New Synchros
- New Seals/Gaskets
- New Shifter Return Springs (May even shim them to get a little stiffer/firmer feel)
- New Shifter Bushing
- New Trans Shift Boot (Mine is practically useless)
- SOHC Slave Cylinder (Will Explain why when he time comes)
- Maybe squeeze in a Clutch line if the funds allow (Jon still got that SPL line?)
- AMSOIL MTF GL-4 75w90

New Baller Trans 12pt Bolt set (IIRC I'm actually missing one right now )
New Starter (Still Strong but one of the Bolt holes is cracked and last thing I need is for that to shit on me)
Rear Main Seal (Might as well do it while I'm in there before it gives out | Already have from the Gasket set I got)

F1 Racing RB Pull-Type Flywheel (~15lbs not too light not to heavy | I know eBay but I read alot of success and well I can't justify a Spec or Fidanza right now)
OEM N/A Z32 Clutch Kit (Should hold about 220ft lbs if I calculated right)

Looking for a VLSD right now and will probably shim it but not stupid or crazy like the ppl have done. I will be replacing the shim with a slightly thicker one. Not adding another shim making it 2x or more thicker then what was in there.

Somewhere in there my VERY late X-Mas SPC Arm set should show up

After that she should be all good to go for a nice alignment. Something she hasn't had for about 1-1.5years now

Next step will be to do a tune up and get her ready for some minor tuning
- Replace CTS
- Replace KS
- Replace Primary o2
- Replace Cap & Rotor
- New Iridium Plugs and Wires (Check timing and bump to ~24* | Still pretty safe on 92 Oct & Stock Tune. Have heard of upto 28-20* on Pump Gas and Stock ECU)
- Replace VC Gasket (bitch is leaking )
- Replace ALL the Exhaust Gaskets (May try to throw in a ProjectNissan 80MM Resonated Test-Pipe | Maybe the Downpipe Combo if I feel lucky lmao)
- Install the EGR Block off


And that will be it for then. After that will be more saving for some tuning stuff which will take quite some time
Will jump back on the "Recon" part after all that's done.

 

[word sux]

if I had 2 240's this would be how I did the second one


the boy racer suspension and seat on mine is gonna kill me lol

 

[Scoot]

Lol. I'm pretty sure your coils still ride better than mine despite the 10/8 rates...

Fortune said they can do custom valving and even add more digressive valving. Might have to see how much digressive they can give me. If it can compare to an Koni 86xx (Koni Yellows actually have more) then I think I will be sold and getting a new set.

Isn't August after summer?

 

[word sux]

I havn't had a chance to soften my tanabe's up all the way they have just been set dead center for stifness


but they already ride better then tein's all the way soft I can tell you that much


my biggest annoyance stems from the near solid motor and tranny mounts. the vibration is insane

 

[Monkichi57]

Looks like a good plan.

So far I like that flywheel. Even though it is eBay, it's holding up. No problems for me so far. Well, I haven't done any serious driving with it yet

As for the clutch line, you going for the line that goes straight to the slave or just wanting to replace the short line? I have a spare line (goes from master to slave) if you want it, you can have it. Just come and grab um.

 

[BoostinIX]

The full lines are cheap. Just do it.

It's summer year round (here atleast)

Yeah those AVID Mounts are GNARLY!
Also weren't you running AGX's? I believe that's your main problem for the shitty ride on the Tein's. Not to mention the AGX Adj. do pretty much nothing (Atleast says the shock Dynos )

Yeah, I was just looking to replace the Damper and go from the Hardline straight to the slave. IDK if Jon still has his but he has a SPL line. If you have a SS/Braided I'll be glad to come grab that from you

The full lines are cheap. Just do it.

Meh, don't like the look of some random SS Braided line just weaving through the bay. I'll stick to the Hardline


Prices go up for EVERYTHING but our pay never seems to follow the trend. Sometime they even go the opposite way. WTF is wrong with that picture??????
