try a battery terminal remover. Its like a small pulley remover, goes for something like 3 quid and makes a hell of a difference.

if both sides are on jackstands, then yes, both wheels should spin. If only the drivers side is not spinning, its not a knackered box, its a knachered driveshaft. Try the old driveshaft with the knackered boots. You may have bough an 1.* shaft by mistake which isnt the right lenght and it...

Chip: I understand it is a great quality product, but the manifold is only available sencond hand nowadays! Also, I work in the automotive industry (not motorsports unfortunately), and you'd be surprised at how cheap things can be built. The rs2 inlet is a sort of artisan's work (labor is most...

what are the specs on the manifold? is it an exact copy or something put together from parts?

Cant acces the link! can you get a pic up? what runner lenght did you use, and what were the gains?

Reason Im asking is that Ive just came across this thing on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/nissan-sr20-intake-manifold-for-sunny-pulsar-gti-r-/271351758885?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f2dd34025&vxp=mtr#ht_1143wt_1179 I know it's for the SR20 engine, but if you look closely...

The diferential makes a difference on how the power reaches the wheels, but it doesnt play a role on the atcual power values. So what exactly is your airfilter and exhaust setup? and what power was your racer putting out before the mods??

I figured the sequential box played a major role in how the car performed. Anyway, anyone ever put a race car on the rollers to se exactly how much power it put out?

i meant, the race cars dont have itbs, turbos, or different cams. So how did they make the extra horses?

I was wondering. Clio race cars (172/182) were supposed to put out 200 BHP with stock internals, correct? These were supposed to be the exact same internals of their current-day production cars. So.. why do we struggle so much to get that extra 30 bhp on a regular production car?? Im sure...

I used some gray RTV on my rear mount. I figured silicone would be more flexible than urethane. I didnt remve the original "X" plastic thing, just emptied the whole RTV tube around it. I cleaned the mounth throughly before applying the silicone (dishwasher soap, carb cleaner, brush). It's been...

The only thing this does is turn on your reverse lights (and read wiper during reverse). You can even just use a proper sized to blank it out (so it doesnt leak) while you get the sensor and you can still use the car.

Ill be damned! As I started looking for the sound to record it, I ws greeted with a substantial oil pool near the dephaser solenoid. I took off the plenum, only to discover that the spark plug hole must have had around 15mm of oil in it. Took off the plug, and sure enough it was completely...

I'm using 96 ron fuel (that's the highest grade available here) andy, I'll get a recoding (as soon as it stops raining).
