Also, anyone know the correct fitting size and pitch for the actual steering rack and pump? My isis line fitting is too small for where it threads into the pump. Any suggestions or prior experience is appreciated.

So i want to fix the toe of my car since its pretty low and eating my tires pretty quickly. What would i need to fix the toe all around? toe rods? and and a rucas? maybe tie rods for the front? I don't know much about suspension. Thanks in advance for the input.

Sorry, it’s for the same turbo, stock t28 from s14 sr20det. Internal wastegate. I wanna make sure that it is within spec to ensure i don’t over boost on a mail oder tune. I dont even know what the stock boost is for these things. lol im googlein but government computers seem to block most any site that is decent enough to entertain someone for more then 5 mins.....

Quick question, I just got new tires and an alignment. I just noticed on my rear one side is higher than the other by only about a centimeter. Its rubbing so I want to raise it to match the other side. Will it mess up my alignment if i raise it just one centimeter? I am mainly concerned about tire wear.

If you change anything it will change everything lol mineis the same way in the front. When I lower the whole car more I will take it to get realigned

Thanks!

so should it take 7psi of air to actuate the wastegate?

grimm199 · 06-06-2012, 01:08 AM

I want to test an S13 HUD I grabbed. But I don't have an S13 to test it on. There is one at the Pick-A-Part around here, but there is no battery or keys in it. Do you think if I take a battery to it, hook it up, and some how get power to it, it would work? If it would, how would I even do it? Somewhat like hot wiring it or something?
And this is an even more noob question, but would the plug to the S13 cluster hook up to an S14 and I could test it on my car? Just a thought.

yessirr, if you hook it up directly to boost pressure.

*240Cali* · 06-06-2012, 03:19 AM

coilovers are squeeking -.- time for new springs? wd-40? lol any useful info would be great. thanks guys.

I was going to do that. but i am talking about finding out if it is in spec. so when i get my mail order tune, i wont be boosting something different from what i ordered. haha Thanks bro.

RandallSharp · 06-06-2012, 09:04 AM

Will an ABS brake booster from an 89 work on my non-ABS 91?

I would lean towards the wiper amp first. With a slight possibility that it's the switch.

It should start opening around 5psi with 7psi max with it hooked direct. You can get a hand pump for cheap to bench test it.

Get your hands on an fsm. They are free to dl online.

e1_griego · 06-06-2012, 11:58 AM

On a single cam the oil pump unbolts from the bottom and then there's an intermediate shaft which runs up to the distributor shaft. No need to take off the timing cover.

That's a fun messy job.

Highly highly recommend you get an FSM so you know how the intermediate shaft needs to line up.

toe rods for the rear. Front toe is already adjustable with the tie-rods.

Depending on how low you are, you might need other adjustable arms as well, because the stock arms can only adjust so much.

To fix toe issues up front you can use the stock tie rod ends. Out back you'll need rear toe arms.

Take them off, and clean them. May not be a bad idea to add a torrington bearing to them to help them rotate easier too.

Thankyou, that link is everything I was looking for. Someone should organize these threads so when u search for em, you can actually find em. I dont know how many differrent ways I searched 'power steerind and lines' but ur linked thread never showed up as a result. Thanks again, very helpful.

208s14.5 · 06-06-2012, 06:39 PM

So I've got a question for everyone, if its in the wrong section than someone direct me to the right one. I have a 95 240, factory blue emerald paint, grey cloth Int, sunroof, 4 lug, and a 6 bolt LSD. Previous owner told me this was the way he got it(original owner). I've had some people tell me this is a rare chassis and some say it isn't. Anyone care to clarify?
