Holy shit the bracket is completely different. Not just the adjustment ability but even the cutout is rectangle vs my triangle. I want to pull those sections and send them back for swap out. I will let you guys know if that happens otherwise beware....
Also like the brothers vid look how far...
I filled out the massively long overkill support form (I better be getting some extra trump cash its like filing taxes). At present the tips pinch and hang about an inch too low (stock hangers). If this gets resolved I will be sure to recommend but at present, the fitment pictured in videos and...
Its not the midpipe, look at the bracket pictures, they can only “point” at each other one way, IE the muffler pipe can only line up one way. There is no play in those brackets nor the AWE plate. I think the pictures of the video version against the real version are pretty clear.
So without the plate, the driver side is extremely loose (hence the orange strap) and the passenger side has some movement ability. I can push it all into position but without the constant pressure joining the exhaust (IE this plate) it is hard to say if it will stick there or there will be...
I have this exhaust and while I like it in general, I have been going crazy trying to get the fitment right. I just cannot do it. It is to the point where I had to order all new clamps. The tips pinch the inside of the bumper and hang too low. I was directed to the "how to align" videos but that...
Maybe we can just cap off the inlet into the charge pipe and route that little house to a catch can that vents out of the system completely? If heavier oil is used, can you pull the charge pipe and see if it actually fixes the issue?
Well then we need a catch can stat... because we are all burning that and its contaminated oil so eventually that is going to lead to a lot of problems
Doing more research on the Accu-seal clamps, they need 61 ft-lbs. 65-70 is high, the installation instructions of “minimum required torque of 60 ft-lbs” is slightly misleading. Then the calibration sheet of the torque wrench needs to be taken into account because that will be certified to be...
By chance does anyone know what the torque on the downpipe vband clamp should be?
I pulled my stock downpipe in prep to swap it out but cant seem to find the torque spec in the repair manual.
as far as the exhaust end, the accu-seal clamps have a 60 ft-lb minimum requirement so i have been...
I swapped out my charge pipe with an FTP but I found a lot of oil in there!
On my twin turbo 300zx there was a lot of oil due to BOVs and the blowby but I was not expecting this on this car with only 2500 miles. Is this normal or is there a deal failing?
It is the stock tune, no other engine mods.
I installed the AWE touring with resonators. It was a bitch and a half to get the tips aligned. I had all the clamps loose when trying to align too. Initially I tucked the resonator pipe nicely into the car and it all fit but it caused the exhaust tip to touch the car (especially on the left...
Awe let me know that without the pin the actuator will just spin and spin and throw an error so you need to add something that simulates a stopping point
There is a pin that connects the solenoid to the valve flap. Without that pin, the flap can freely move. And the pin just rests in a slot of the solenoid. I see some exhausts like the awe fake out the solenoid by bolting it to a bracket they include in which you add a fake pin and ziptie it to...
can a front sway be installed with the car planted on all wheels or does the car need to be jacked up? I have a four post lift and can easily get to everything with the car planted but i am not sure if tension needs to be relaxed to do this.
Broke mine early on- replaced with oem glass via safelite (geico insurance) the glass was like $600usd, i had a $500usd deductible. It has to be oem glass because there are a bunch of plastic brackets that everything plugs into....
No camera recalibration is needed. It took about 3 days for the...
Does the mst intake has the same flaw as the op intake where previsions are not made to account for this connect, or is the mst intake more “complete” but the hose was just broke in the install process?
