With a 10mm-15mm spacer up front, yes. It'll fit without a spacer in the rear, but I use a 12mm spacer out back to bring the wheel flush.
On a 275/40/18 you'll want the 10mm spacer. If you use a 275/35/18 you can get away with a 15mm spacer (that's where my range came from).
Buy the cheap...
Beyond the MT vs AT data difference, the fluid in each is different and I have to imagine the manufacturing of gears has gotten better than older stuff.
My only temperature data points for MT is from much older cars that had mechanical fluid pumps inside to keep the gears cool. We generally...
I run the 275/40/18 Yok on an 18x10.5 +35 wheel with a 10mm spacer that makes it effectively +25 and it's fine. I also have H&R springs, camber plates, and the same tune. I do have an Eibach front bar that might help keep the tire off some, but I never tracked it on the stock bar so I can't...
I haven't removed the spring perch specifically, but I have done a lot of similar things. Definitely use a real hammer, and work your way around like others have said. If you can't reach the back to impart similar force then see if you have something that can act like an extension (pry bar...
I was also quite sad to see Pitt Race go. One of my favorite tracks so far and easily worth the 9 hour tow for me were it still there.
I think I figured out part of the issue of why the car was more tail happy there. The rear toe had slipped some. When I reset it and then swapped to the...
I think they were there in the morning since I saw a large group including at least one Lexus leaving as I was pulling in. The afternoon session seemed to have more daily driver or lower prep style cars. Since I live 3.5-4 hours away I usually pick the later session if I have a choice so I can...
I was there for the afternoon session in the red Supra. I think I saw you there, but it was one of my friends in the white ERay that held up the intermediate group so I didn't get to wander around quite as much as I wanted. You reminded me I hadn't posted video of that day though.
Here's my...
It does look like it's slightly more expensive to get done if next day shipping is required vs the cheaper overseas option. That said, after all is said and done, the timeline will be much shorter for basically $30 more. It took 9 days total for DHL to get the package from South Carolina to...
I've talked to and raced with the Zebulon guys. It's a very nice setup, and worth the cost if you're pushing the envelope. AJ Hartman has also run locally at various time trials/time attacks I run at and his stuff also works well. I haven't chatted with him though, so no real comment there...
I bought the AT unlock a few weeks ago. DHL fucked around a bit which cost a few days, but all said and done it was 7 business days (9 total) to get the ECU back. MHD went on the same day it returned and the car is considerably quicker than before.
I specifically chose AT just to give femto...
For the noise, does it show up at light throttle while cruising? Diff should be warmed up, at freeway speeds (the 50-80 mph you mention), and then vary the throttle small amounts at very light opening. If the whine shows up while on light throttle, but goes away when off throttle or at lower...
Interesting. That's actually relatively similar to what the older LS1/6 engines would do to the fresh air port. Most would use a 1 or 2 psi check valve, and like you mention it wasn't perfect but it did cut down dramatically on oil going into the intake. I commonly use the little breather you...
Does any oil actually come out of this port, or is it strictly for fresh air sourcing?
I'll freely admit I haven't looked at the B58 crank case venting or how it's setup other than the cursory search to see if it needed a catch can on track. That said I'm curious about this since I've long...
I've ran the HP+ and DS2500. I think the DS2500 is between the HP+ and HPS 5.0 line, and none of those are good on track with power/heavy cars either. My first ever track pads were HP+ and while I was a noob, I was quickly finding the limits of the HP+ on track at Mid-Ohio in a 2,800 lbs 300...
Good to know and thanks for the real world feedback.
I've used the RSL29's on several other cars including a Cayman GTS and always felt they were pretty spot on. Prior to that I've had experience with Hawk, Carbotech, GLoc, Ferodo, and Raybestos, but the RSL keeps me coming back. They can...
As in they fade? The temp range says they are mostly the same (which does seem dubious) and the Mu is also similar. I ASSumed the N+ and HC+ were closer in style to the RSL29/GLOC R8 and would be worth a try while the 999 would be more in the DTC60/70 range which I always found to be too much...
Curious if anyone has tried the lower bite N+ or HC+ from PMU? My Pagid RSL29's have another few track days left in them, but I figured I'd try some new sets. I tend to like pads with lower initial bite but still able to hit ABS on 200tw tires if I mean it. Looking through the catelog those...
Given the air going through the intake manifold is usually moving over 100 mph when you're out on track, the phenolic spacer isn't going to do much. In stop and go traffic where the air is much slower moving through the IM and has more time to leach the heat from the housing it can help. By...
295 on a 10.5 isn't the worst, and would likely be faster than a 275 on a 10.5, but it won't feel as good and you'll need to be ready for the squish.
Again, I haven't driven this particular car on a 295/30 or 295/35, but the people I know who have tested those two tires have said the 35 doesn't...
