legacy_specB, u obviously trying to start on me too.but thats ok. |
No Padna i have no issues with you....if i did i wont have answered your questions when u sent me the pm's earlier in the year. Trust me.....
The Olive oil was just a figure of speech......all i said was that if you want to put it in your car then fine put it.......One thing the LGT is, is a place to share ideas, opinions and knowledge. Its then up to the individual to use that knowledge or not.
Personally i think all that back and forth and name calling was not called for......regardless of who started it. Both of you hit each other below the belt.

Hadda take the buff.
Farley(?) struck me as pretty professional- there was a skyline there up on the lift and he took the time to stop work and bring it down show me and to discuss what he was going to do and answer some of the stupid questions that I ask as a habit.
We are wrapping the down pipes.
Stupid Question for the day.
Iv done 3 things including the exhaust-Change the filter, Ecutek being the first 2.
Anybody can give me the step ups in hp that on average I would have gotten with each step???
- I didn't dyno before and once I get the car back I will head back by Jason to fine tune. Then dyno and see what I end up with.
Also what would you all recommend I do next.

Installed some STI springs on my legacy here are some pics.......
The car handling like a beyotch... no body roll......
If anybody is thinking to install drop springs on their legacy that may not be such a good idea. In addition to lowering the center of gravity of the car it also lowers the car's roll center. What this does is causes alot of understeer which is undesirable.

I always said that I'd give the guy a try. I prefer spending 1k as opposed to 5.5k anyday.
I don't find it that stiff. I actually like it.

Shucks I meant to say 95 my bad. I know ppl who trying to tune on 93 octane though. Doesn't make sense to me. |

Check De Bench on the forum.....he should have the stuff to do corner balancing (don't discount how important that is, when you have four independent height adjustments), and can advise you otherwise as well (he has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Suby's....and suspension too). |

| Actually on 95% of Trinidadian roads Ragnarok will end up much slower now with the stiffer springs with same rate back and front maybe. |

could be your aftermarket springs
they are not seated properly, they usually go out of place when u jack the front of the car and turn the steering etc.
or if you go on a ramp to change your oil/service etc, the spring jumps out of place and gives u that knocking noise
happens to me all the time
FIX: jack the car, let someone turn the spring with their hands and put it back in position |

Massive difference.
And I havent tuned with the new exhaust yet.
J Force was excellent-the job finished a little late but that gave the road a little chance to dry
Plenty more torque and while I havent opened it up yet I feel like there is a lot more than before.
I forget the camera -was recovering from a bachy party the night before-well we had the party but no bachy.
We started at 3 pm and I dunno what happened after the ting.....
well I just forget the camera.
I have to go back and get the down pipes wrapped. So will take pics then.
It kinda loud though-what could be done to reduce the noise??
