No real reason backed by any qualitative explanation. I just wanted to do it from the onset of this build which started awhile back and at the time I had the funds to spend to acquire the NISMO version so I could be a "test mule" of sorts. I'm pretty sure the rev-up would have been way more than adequate especially with the motor being stroked and being expected to make peak power at much lower RPMs compared to a non-stroked VQ.

 

ya even the big builds are using the revup which is why i was asking..from what i understand the nismo pump uses the same housing as the r34 nismo pump.

 

I forgot where but I thought somewhere a while back a saw a physical comparison of the non-revup, revup and NISMO oil pump. I'll see if I can find it and post it or send it to you directly.

On another note my new jack has instantaneously become my new favorite tool. I'm very excited to get started on my installs so I can start using it. I love new tools!








Mission Accomplished!!!



Yeah I should probably do a build thread of my own.

 

Yes I did. My toes wasn't the problem with the ichiba camber arms. It was camber adjustability...

 

How much are you dropped? I'm on GF210s. How long ago did u have them on your car? I'm not too worried about crazy camber adjustment, just my toe.

 

How much was that jack & where did you get it? I need one!

On bc coils but if I had to put a number out there I'd say prolly .5 - 1 inch more than gf210s. Also after searching and calling ichiba USA I found they made two different rear camber arms and only differ'd by one number in the part number and on their site they have the exact description but under certain vendors they say +\- 2 degree or +\- 4 degrees so just make sure you do your research

 

I appreciate the concern, my worry is actually the toe as I said. And the Alignment not staying within specs. Just gotta find someone reputable to do the alignment. Thanks again!

 

Exactly! The shop may wanna charge you a pretty penny to do the dremeling of the toe holes and all. But alignments can be cheated and by the time you know tires are gone lol good luck bud!

 

Sooo the wife took the evo in for me while im deployed in afghanaland.
i got my Eibach springs installed, WORKS short shifter, and Greddy Ti-C to start off with for now until i get home.

Greddy Ti-C


Eibach Pro Kit, waiting on my final set of spacers to come in.



WORKS SS installed


Thats all for now. much more to come.

 

i bought a USgeneral aluminum racing jack (2.75" low front) from HF back in 03. still kickin' good but i still have to use blocks of wood to get under the Z..

 

I don't pay for things I can do myself. I will do the install, but the alignment shop will have to take care of it's business. I even know a guy through a guy that can do camber/toe alignments. Hope it all works out for me!

 

Cool. I did all my stuff to but my good buddy did my alignment while I was there. Good luck!

 

 

^^ NICE

What made you go with Eibach if you dont mind me asking? *read earlier posts to see my convo with z_enthusiast*

 

I went the way of Eibach due to the the testimonials on here. I read through a lot of thread posts that scared me out of using the cheaper ones. According to most, Eibach has very good quality.

 

Those eibachs look just like my SPC. I think ichiba should have just stuck with spacers lol

 

I believe the Eibach kit uses the SPC arms. They are one in the same.

 

The Eibach kits are made by SPC.
