Ordered my Teflon fuel line and fittings. Will be replacing the oem hard line and upgrading my return line to 6an. Cjm twin pump should go in Friday. Will have a walbro 255 and the fuel correction and return line available if anyone wants to upgrade their fuel system

 

 

I literally just laughed out loud.

eric that story just made me sickt to my stomach, poor little rich kids........

 

i have their exhaust haha - yay topspeed

 

Biggest joke of a vendor on this entire forum. I'll never buy from them.

How did the wheel stud install go?

 

so a little bit of good (?) news, today when i turned and heard that popping, i felt something on the floor at the same time i heard the sound, this is leading me to believe that it is the exhaust hitting the frame.....

 

The initial suspicion. We'll get it fixed friday.

 

I like my exhaust Eric lol it souuunds good I also own some rota's and some fake sti floormats TopSpeed - put on a nice event this summer and that Lamborghini was there too haha - but yes i could sense the NO in Pats post haha - i've heard people don't like their stuff - and i can understand - i also asked if it was their test pipes because i was thinking of buying some from them lol

Travis - i had to put spacers/washers on a buddies Z as his exhaust was hitting underneath - took like 2 minutes - but you need to go buy some washers - biggns i don't remember the size - maybe the same issue ?

 

on the gemini exhaust, they only fabbed it with 3 hangers so it got rid of the one on the passseger front side of factory muffler, because of this i think when i turn right it is shifting over and hitting the frame. i picked up one of these the other day and going to see if i can make it work to prevent it from shifting

in the pic, it is the red circle area where it is hitting.. since this pic i replaced the cats and sways, both causing me to take down parts of the exhaust so that knuckle is actually alot closer now than it looks in the pic

 

yeah that bracket is what i lowered on my friends motor dyne - i used washers to give it clearance - no more noise -

 

that is the bracket i picked up to try to fix the issue, i am not sure what you are talking about with the washers

 

Mike is saying that he fabbed up a makeshift drop bracket for that under-brace because the exhaust was hanging too low and hitting that. Travis' issue is that the exhaust swings to the left due to not having a hanger on the right side. It hits against the underbody (not frame - we don't have frames).

Mike - I'm not talking about TopSpeed's products or even their company in general. Just their forum representative is a complete tool and doesn't know how to conduct business.

 

oh cool - cuz i like my exhaust lmao - glad there might not be issues with their quality etc...

- i think its called uni-body Eric - Supra didn't have a frame either -

and yes i was talking about lowering that black support - as my buddies exhaust would "knock" against it - so adding spacers between the brace and the body lowered the brace and gave the exhaust ample clearance -

I climbed under and pushed up and down and it felt somewhat solid but when i pushed hard it would KNOCK back down on that brace - loud - thats how i found it - just sharing my experience with that motordyne on an HR

i'm in the process of figuring out what pic ***** pic to post today

 

found it

 

man i dont know if lowering that brace would be a good idea, it looks like it is there for rigity, not to mention that it would also put it lower than what it is. i would really worry about it hitting speed bumps etc

 

With just some washers in there it shouldn't get lowered enough to worry about all that.

That Gallardo on the right is the one in the article I posted earlier.

Mike - I stole your mustache picture and put it on my facebook this morning.

 

Hey everyone...

Which upcoming events are you guys doing? Fithamoto is signed up for the autoX on the 13th and I plan to do that, but here's my idea.

PCA time trial on the 29th - then instead of doing their autoX on the 30th I thought about doing the NTAXS autoX in Mesquite.

The downside would be two separate fees for the weekend, but I thought it could be worth it to try Mesquite. Fithamoto heard that Mesquite was small and may not be as fun as MW, but does anyone know for sure? Which events are we doing? I want to get signed up now (it's not even early anymore, it's coming quickly).
